That is unacceptable Cohen- straight bullshit

[War Machine Dawg]

If they had a team meeting and agreed to mess up bunting, Cohen has completely lost the team and he might as well quit.

Thus the point. Cohen is not giving them a chance to win. The entire job of a coach is to put your players in the best position to win and Cohen is doing the opposite.

[Coach34]

I would address it and ask why do we give the other team outs so often??? Outs are precious

[Drugdog]

SS hopefully knows our frustration as well as the players.

[DudyDawg]

Pitching blows too. Dude just hit his first ever homerun. Didn't that happen for auburn too?


We flat out are not any good.

[DudyDawg]

Might as well stop pitching Ross. Dude threw batting practice speed before. Now he's throwing them straight. He's one of many pitchers who flat out isn't good

[Dawgface]

As much as he tries the same shit over and over, you would think he would let the batter swing in these situations just to mix things up. He's one dumb m'fer.

[Treemydawg]

I'm done with him. Straight up stupid how he is handling things. He's gone off the reservation. I don't give a shit how many regionals he's had or a CWS. He's changed and not for the better. I'd rather watch someone else lead our program that will play baseball and not this bastardized version of male fast pitch softball. This is ****ing garbage. And take that ****ing overrated muu muu wherein get ****ong****ing pitching coach with you. This isn't a one game rant because we are struggling. This has become the norm. And it's unacceptable and unnecessary.

You should e-mail this exactly like it is to Cohen. Hit the nail on the head.

I don't think he is that dumb. Heis just that @&$"ing hardheaded .

[BulldogBear]

I would be to the point of fouling off the bunt attempts just to be able to swing with 2 strikes.

Me too. I'd probably 17 up y attempted foul bunt.

Does make one wonder...

If I am a recruit, I'm really concerned about Cohen taking the bat out of my hand to bunt. I'm concerned that Cohen is taking the fun for the players out of the game itself. I'm worried that he's lost touch of how the game is really played because he's lost his mind!

This hurts recruiting gentlemen. Hitters want to go where they can be productive regardless of the stadium.

[Backspin]

Hitters also want to go to schools that have great hitting coaches. The proof is in the results.

If I'm a hitter I look at ONE successful hitting talent to make a big next level jump under The Blockhead.

We have two of the best power hitters in the country committed right now. I'm much more concerned about MLB taking their bats out of our hands than Cohen.

Matt LaPorta, Colin Cowgill, and Hunter Renfroe.

It's The Meddler. Get it right, Smitty.

I hate to be the Internet police here, but one way to get better hitters to come is to not put stuff out like this to discourage them from coming. Nothing personal and I know you are not the only one doing it. I'm sure you'll lash out at me back too.

And I'm not saying you can't bitch- just don't say "recruits shouldn't come here". Especially if you want it to get better. Because of the fact of the matter one of the best ways to reduce bunting is to get better hitters to start with.

Or to stop giving the bunt sign.

If a bigtime croot came out and said, "I was going to MSU but their philosophy/instruction won't help me get to the next level" I bet shit would change a lot quicker.

[Todd4State]

I failed how? Greg Pickett is considered a border line first round pick. Austin Riley is an UA All-American with top five round talent- and that's being very conservative.
