    John Cohen, it's time for you to do your job

    And stop allowing our program to be the farm team of the real competitors every year. The buck stops with you whether fair or not. Open up the wallet and let some air in, brother

    Cohen grew up a Bama fan. Not sure why he?d care. He accepted the SEC pecking order at a young age.

    Mind boggling how mismanaged things are right now

    A complete embarrassment to our school.

    I hope season tickets suffer so people in power are held accountable

    Guys I have one question due to the Baker MSU contract terms Bama ain't happy with. Apparently Cohen tried to lock him in and make him more un-poachable but Bama has DEEP pockets.

    My question: Do y'all know for a fact that our coaches are underpaid at all (to include outside non-State of Mississippi funds)?

    Just asking cause I have no clue and everybody seems to want to fire ADs right and left, regardless of who they are from my observations.

    Not sure what business you are in but I do know you aren?t successful in it from your response.

    Successful companies have retention plans and make sure their top talent doesn’t leave. Bottom line. Do more reading and searchihg and lest posting please .

    If are a football coach that wants to advance and Nick Saban offers you a job, you take it. He is currently considered the best HC in CFB and having his name on your resume puts you above all those that don't.

    Maybe it?s not the money.....and, if not, that?s worse. John?s a smart guy...if all it?s about is money, that?s a relatively simple fix. With 4 coaches now gone.....makes me wonder....

    You don't take less pay to do it. Pay them more than they're worth. Hell, look at what Clemson did with Venebles, and I'd say it was worth the $

    This does need to happen IMO. I'm a fair market/capitalism guy but with regard to the US economy there are antitrust laws in place to prevent monopolies and I'm starting to think something similar needs to happen in CFB to some extent. Not sure how far to go, but Saban is getting ridiculous in the shit he does.

    Ask Cohen to bitch to the SEC? No wonder our fan base doesn't get it. What the hell is the SEC going to do?

    It's money people. If we want this crap to end we need more money. And a lot of it. Until we all step up and donate more and find others who are willing to donate more it's not going to matter

    Regardless of the reasons, MSU how NO CHANCE, of building a nationally competitive program with this happening.

    Not sure what the answer is, but, if those in power can't c find one, then we need new people in power.

    Good point

    And to those saying "this happens to everyone"....not a whole staff after one underachieving year. No it doesn't. This is a problem, and we aren't going to be able to keep batting a thousand on these replacement hires every year.

    Why don't we just hire a better defensive line coach?

    Successful companies are scared of top talent leaving because they know they can go find someone else.

    You see sometimes the perceived value on the outside is more than perceived value on the inside.

    We'll try. And if we succeed we'll be replacing him this time next year and losing the recruits he's bringing in.

    I'd worry if they weren't taking "better" jobs. We're losing guys to the NFL and Bama.
