This will severely limit who we have to choose from to replace Moorhead and any successive coach.

Get over yourselves. Cohen isnt firing him due to the probability we will win more than 4 games and most likely will win 6. Joe may very well decide to leave on his own if he finds a better fit for him.

Everyone knew we had to let Rocky go. Tech and 10 settled that.
Everyone knew Jackie couldnt succeed during a 3 year investigation and he eventually realized that.
The many fans that said you couldnt fire Croom 1 year removed from SEC COY were a vocal minority.

Your comment about Joe being the 'worst coach MSU has ever had' or even the last 15 years, let alone 50, shows you are just willfully ignorant of our past.
If YOU don't realize how bad of a coach Moorhead is then YOU are willfully ignorant. You say one season: last season was a trainwreck. I know...we won 8 games and po' ol' Mittitippi Tate should just be happy with that but that's a BS line of thinking. We were a mismanaged team last year and the results showed that. That hasn't improved this year...it's gotten worse. Do you think that somehow the same coach will magically fix it next year against a tougher schedule? It's obvious to literally 99% of fans AND the 17'n national media.
