What makes you think Cohen was the sole decision maker in releasing a statement or not? I would assume several people including our university attorneys were involved.

What makes you think otherwise? Do you have any evidence showing several people including our university attorneys were involved? It isn't like Leach committed a crime for making a perfectly innocent joke that a lot of people took out of context. What would be the point of having attorneys involved? I do think it is possible, however, that Cohen consulted with Keenum before issuing his statement.

This statement would not have appeared on msstate.edu (instead of hailstate.com) if this were a Cohen-only thing. This is not something he shot from the hip on late and decided to do himself.

Keenum should get his share of the blame on this as well for sure. The whole thing is utterly ridiculous. Leach has done some questionable things in his career but I would put this near the bottom of them. Do you think Leach had any idea what he was getting himself into by retweeting a joke about an old married couple (white couple as far as can tell)? No racial implications were in the joke whatsoever. Our society has gone off the rails.
