Kendall Rogers weighs in on Lemon

[TNDawg35]

I agree with this. Baseball coaches don't hop around as much as football and basketball coaches. They don't leave as often, and they don't get fired as often. Bianco is in Year 23. Scott Berry has been at Southern Miss for 23 years (14 as head coach).

We won a Natty and nobody got Foxhall or GoTro afterward. When a football team wins a Natty, someone always comes after their OC or DC.

To be fair, Gotro has had several offers for head coaching spots. Tulane and Rice are a couple off the top of my head. He is still in the hunt for the Bama job also. Don’t be surprised if he ends up there at the end of the year.

The administration cares more about football than baseball (which, frankly, I'm good with). Had Lemon turned in this pathetic coaching effort in football he'd be gone already. We fired a football coach that went 16-8 and beat ole miss two years in a row.

Exactly how it should be!

Moorhead was 14-12 (8-5 and then 6-7), not 16-8

Huh? I thought we finished regular season 8-4 both years? Anyway, my point remains. Football is more important to the administration and boosters.

No, the piss and miss got us to 6-6. I highly doubt Moorhead would have been fired had we been 8-4 again in 2019. He almost wasn't anyway, until the incident with Willie Gay and the poor bowl performance.

OMG! How could I forget that?! Shit.

Oh but how it makes us SMILE to remember!!

Have you sent in your application Basedog?

I look forward to Bert Stare saying you just bought a house in Starkville.

I?d just use a mesh beach chair instead of bucket. Bert said he would buy me a house when I applied and got the job*. LOL

P.S. I’d be bringing Cc24 as my top assistant.

I'll be there for you, man! LOL

[basedog]

I'll be there for you, man! LOL

I’d get a deal for Cade to return and yo peep son would be our catcher/hitting Coach. Hell I’d make you Co HC! We could use the money 24. LOL

Let's make it happen lol!

This narrative keeps getting thrown out- but truth be told- he didnt take the job and chose to stay at TCU. If he wanted the job- he would have been our HC

Not true. And I live in Texas...

[Coach34]

Not true. And I live in Texas...

aGAIN- say that all you want. If he waits until the end of the CWS- he is our coach. Cohen would not name him before the CWS was over- so he took the extension with TCU. Cohen told him he wouldnt name him before the CWS was over.

If he wanted to be our coach- he would be today

This job isn't as attractive as it once was due to NIL. Also our location was never an issue until widespread social media came about. This is a bullshit world.

They care about money and football is the cash cow. Even with the support we have baseball doesn't make much money even for us.if at all.

We're a top 5 or so in the SEC in NIL for baseball. That's pretty damn strong.

We're in the SEC- which means if you're a coach and you want to win National Championships where one of the very few places that has the resources to do that.

Sure there are coaches like Scott Berry that get comfortable somewhere and they stay and just become the face of the program historically. There are others that want to go somewhere that they can win a National Championship.

Let me give you two scenarios.

1. We can fire Lemois now and lose between 6-8 million dollars all told between buyouts and paying a new staff and end up with some random mid major coach or an unproven SEC assistant.

2. We can keep Lemonis spend about 4 million dollars on buyouts and do a proper National Search and end up with a more accomplished head coach. Assuming Lemonis doesn't turn it around. Which in my mind a turnaround is very possible. Because I don't think very many MSU fans understand how abysmal Foxhall was. But let's say I'm wrong and we end up with another season like this. We still come out better in the long run because we'll have a much bigger pool to choose from and more resources. Most of our fans just don't get this for some reason.

The only thing i see is a repeat of Moorhead. Most of us with common sense could see he was a crap coach after Kentucky game....but noooo a lot of knuckleheads wanted to keep him. It wasn't until he told us to pound sand and kick rocks that he was told to exit stage left. It is DeJa'Vu all over again.
