No one hired the ULL coach?
-
He’s still only been a head coach two years. If he has a good year next year, he’ll be a hot commodity. If he has another two good years, he will be able to be picky for P5 HC Jobs. .

It’s cause he’s got that agreement with us.*

Yep that trouncing in his conf game didn't help any either.

They got beat by 7 and the only TD App State had in the 2nd half was a 16yd pick-6 which turned out to be the difference.

That's the game I saw... ULL made halftime adjustments. ULL could have packed it in, but they didn't. That's what a good coach does, motivate and adjust. How I wish we... Never mind

He inherited a 5-7 team that hadn't made a bowl in 3 years and was on probation. In year 2, he's 10-3 with his only loses coming to a SEC team and App State.
That's way more impressive to me than the App States guys resume: he took over a 11-2 team that was coming off 3 straight 10+ win seasons, and has gone 12-1 in 1 year. He didnt build anything, he didnt fix anything. He inherited a really really good program and team and has them 1 game better than their usual. We know nothing of his ability to build culture, spot talent, recruit, handle adversity, or anything else long term.

This 100%. There is no comparison between the two if you ask me.

According to sources, he had to keep a few other schools warm while we were negotiating the buyout with Moorhead on the afternoon of the egg bowl. He and his S&C coach, OL coach and Special Teams coordinator were all packed and ready to come to Starkville that Friday afternoon for a presser prior to Cohen getting cold feet.
Just ask anyone here.

No debating that just saying that may be reason some cooled, not saying I agree or think that is right.

He's waiting on us getting our asses kicked in Nashville which will flip a few cigar boys and then it will be a done deal. ****

Please stop w this. If we lose the bowl he's not getting fired. The decision to keep him, and I disagree w it, has been made for the year. I'll hope he improves....

I agree homedawg. Heck, daffy duck could win 6 games at MSU next season and Joe will also which means he's here for 2021
-
Norvell didn't get hired 2 years ago either. Now he's the head coach at FSU.

You keep saying this and I’m sure you know. But if we get embarrassed, their will be a rising tide of alums again. As you know.
