I'm Excited... MSU Will Offer Some Coach A Rare Opportunity

[ShotgunDawg]

How many times have you ever seen this hiring sign:

- SEC Program
- Nationally Ranked
- Outstanding Culture
- Returns Almost Every Starter
- Has a SR QB that may be a Heisman Contender & he is backed up by a stud true FR QB that has all the tools to be just as good if not better.
- Quality Local Recruiting Ground
- Rival on probation.
- Passionate Fan Base
- Will Pay Whatever is Needed.
- Has been to 8 straight Bowl Games

Folks, I'm just as frustrated as many of you, but let's be real: We all knew Dan would eventually leave & we had hoped that it would only be for 1 of about 10 programs. Well... one of those 10 programs offered him the job. Get over it. We employed him for 9 years (which is an eternity in coaching) & he delivered. He earned every penny we ever paid him & left the MSU job far better than he found it. I can't thank Dan enough.

Additionally, because the way he built the program, MSU is able to offer a very unique, rare opportunity to a coach & that is a chance to take over an SEC program that doesn't need to be rebuilt & can win immediately. Of all the open jobs this off season, the MSU is the job with the best actual football team. Think about that.

Perhaps, if Dan was going to leave anyway, this was the best way for it to happen. We are set up for success. Also, maybe change is needed. Maybe Dan had done everything he knew how to do here & the only way for the program to take the next step was for new people & new ideas to build on top of the formula Dan built. Think about that.

I trust that Cohen will have his pick of a number of great coaches as this is a rare opportunity. How many SEC jobs have come open in your life time that was ready made to win & the culture already built?

The last one I can think of was LSU when Saban left & Florida when Spurrier left. Maybe Georgia with Richt? Maybe Miles at LSU? Most are dumpster fires

I'm excited about what can happen here.
