Collins wanted to catch. Cohen told him that he would have the opportunity to win the job. Cohen did give him that opportunity before the season. He lost the job to Kruger, Marrero, and Lovelady. Cohen told Collins we needed him at third- which is interesting because the whole off season I said that's where he would benefit us the most but despite my thoughts on that I reported what I had heard from my sources since you know- Cohen actually makes out the lineup. Also, I wasn't the only one on here saying that. Collins wasn't happy about it and it caused some friction early in the season- hence a factor in why he was suspended early in the year and possibly part of the reason why some on here didn't think he would make it through the year very early on. Cohen STILL let him catch a couple of games including one in SEC play. Also hence why Cleveland drafted Collins as a catcher. Now whether they move him to another position, I don't know but it wouldn't shock me or anyone else.

Dumbass you kept saying we should start Luke Reynolds and insisted I was wrong. I said that Luke's defense wasn't good enough- and in fact it was so bad we looked at moving him to the OF which was beyond crowded EVEN THOUGH we were thin at third base. And that's saying something since Gavin was hardly the second coming of Brooks Robinson at third. Cohen agreed with me and told him to redshirt and now he is at USM.

Dumbass you will probably bring up Jacob Barfield. We did bring him in to be the third baseman. He did not perform so Cohen told him that he would have to redshirt. Barfield decided to go back to JUCO and is now going to Houston. We had to scramble a little bit because we expected Austin Riley to come to school until late April or so and Barfield was the best we could come up with. And part of bringing him in was with the intent of giving Collins a chance to earn the job at catcher. It didn't work out that way but that was the intent of the coaching staff at the time.

So, excuse me for not placating your dumb ass so that you can feel like you are right and knowledgeable even when you are wrong- which is going to be proven in the long term anyway. Whether it's by me or reality. I guess you don't like me because I actually point it out whereas the other way around you can hide like a bitch. But good luck on that ever since you accused me wrongly of tweeting out demeaning tweets to our players- and have yet to produce me an example of one when requested.

In the meantime take your Prozac and STFU.
