Getting back onto topic a bit here, it seems like people are firmly entrenched in two caps at the moment.

1. If we do not get Brian O’Conner then the search is a failure and we are going to suck.

2. If we do not get Dan Heefner then the search is a failure and we do not want to win.


I would say it is better than 50/50 we do not get either. It is like 95/5 we do not get Heefner. He is just not going to budge on stuff, and that should be applauded that he has convictions that strong. Unfortunately, just like A&M and a few other jobs, his convictions will cost him this job. On O’Conner, he still has to be interested in OUR JOB. He may interested in getting out but is he interested in walking into the pressure cooker that is Mississippi State baseball. There are only about 3-5 other jobs in the country with as much pressure as ours.
