At that point Cohen decided he did not want to coach anymore and decided to start looking for his replacement. Cohen was the one who leaked his own name, through Robertson probably. It backed us into a corner at that point and we made the hire. Keenum and Cohen never saw eye to eye for a myriad of reasons.
Stricklin did more than put in a good word for Cohen. He put us (MSU) in a bad position.
