    LOL Cohen hasn't had his head in the college baseball sand. He knows the market value of college baseball coaches.

    Agree. This is what Steve said happened.

    It doesn't make sense.

    Of course not. Cohen's knowledge of college baseball isn't my concern. Him getting in a dick swinging contest is

He cares a little more then most AD because not only is Cohen a AD but he is also an aluminium and M Club member. He is just as a rabid fan as us if not more. You really think he isn't going to make the best decision for the athletic department that he can? Hell if I was looking to hire someone I wound't let them put me in that position. I would have done the same thing as Cohen.

    Ya'll need to let that shit go. It is done and over with and it doesn't do any one any good starting threads about it and the hippy should keep his mouth shut about it. Let's move on and get behind the new coach 100%.
    Due diligence takes time. If Schloss REALLY wanted the job, he should have kept his name in the hat. He may have pulled out early knowing IB was likely going to find out something about him he didn't want known publicly. I don't think the IB will be played twice!

    Lemons and Indiana made the 2018 NCAA regionals. Where was Schloss? Top 3 coaches don't miss regionals. Coaches that miss regionals don't get to dictate how the AD at another school performs his search. Shotgun you got your head so far up Schloss' ass you're chewing his bubble gum.

    So he was just supposed to bow down to whatever shloss wanted? I think the guy overestimating his worth wasn't Cohen.

    Don't confuse a critique of the process for not supporting Lemonis.

    I'm in a on Lemonis and think he'll win big, but that doesn't change my thoughts on the process

    Two different things.

    I value winning games more than who dictates a coaching search.


    And this would be one reason that Cohen is our AD, and you aren't. Cohen wants to win games, but he uses logic, and thinks things out thoroughly before making a decision. He does extensive research. So, if you were an employer (Interviewer), you would want the potential employee (interviewee) to run the show? If you do, then good luck in the future , because you will need it. You have no clue how Lemonis will function here.

    Top 3 coaches don't make excuses or need them. When's the last time a top 3 coach in college basketball or football missed March Madness or a bowl game? Perhaps Schloss is an arrogant asshole and this fanbase sure as hell doesn't need another one of those after Don Muffins bolted.

    Why did Schlossnagle need Cohen to make a quick decision?
    Pretty simple Schloss was trying to pressure Cohen into a quick decision to preclude any further candidate interviews. That was indicated by his attempt to get back in the job consideration after IB told him he was going to interview other candidates. Schloss tried to play bluff poker with the Intense Bastard and lost his house.

    We might be the ones who lost.

    But really, I'm pretty sure there's more to the story than a timeline.
    No Cooter, a potential employer is not obligated to meet a candidate for a job's timeline. That set's up a bad employee/employer relationship! And maybe he did a background check, like he should have done on Canny!

    And maybe Schloss is too big for Cohen because he can?t let go of some of the program control. Makes as much sense as what you said. He did say he wanted to hire someone that ?understands the MSU culture?.

    We have a winner

    I trust IB with every hire but this one. He's an exceptional AD but he's human.

    That may be so, but our chances of beating FSU are not going down exponentially. BTO you have not been watching MSU baseball lately!
