    Wonder how CDM will like working for Cohen? Gonna be a huge difference from Loafers.
    Hopefully they can keep Weatherbee as associate AD of marketing or whatever.
    Let the intense bastard focus on hiring/firing and raising funds

    People have mentioned CDM working for him but what about Howland and Schaefer? Those are 2 of the top basketball coaches in the SEC right now. Those are more important to keep than Mullen in my opinion.

    Cohens hepped hire Mullenes. Should be fine.

    Cohen will be the AD & I'm fine with that. John is a relentless competitor & a brilliant person. He'll bring a greater commitment to excellence on the field than Scott did. Cohen's weakness is that he'll need to learn to be political & listen to big boosters, even if he doesn't care what they have to say. You can't be a stubborn ass as an AD. You have to listen, kiss babies, & shake hands.

    Not yet sure how John will handle that. If he's good there, then he could be an elite AD. The major plus of Cohen being the AD is that he'll not accept losing & he'll demand instant respect from all other ADs

    The trajectory of both of those programs is jn great shape. No AD in their right mind would ruffle feathers jn that hen house. Let them keep doing what they're doing. If it changes, then shake things up.

    Mullen is the issue right now within the Ath Dept. The Sexton hire is a pretty clear message. Cohen probably reads that giant billboard sized bold print about as well as most of us here do.

    Also, it doesn't make a lot of sense to name someone interim AD for a week just to name another guy AD who's already in the damn building.

    To add, I'd be surprised if Corbin is the new baseball coach because I think Cohen ego is to the point where he couldn't handle hiring a baseball coach for significantly more money that what he made as baseball coach.

    I'd expect Andy Canniazoro or another head coach from across the country that would be getting a good raise with what Cohen made as baseball coach.

    Just my humble opinion

    The one thing we would get with Cohen is a state first guy. He'll do what he thinks is best for State at all times and I don't think he'd let his ego get in the way.

    Yeah, and just your opinion. Going after Corbin is entirely Cohen's idea.

    I wasn't really talking about Cohen ruffling feathers but how they already got along with him. Anyone heard anything on what Howland and Schaefer thought of the AD search?

    I don't think Cohen would be the one hiring Corbin. Maybe that's why we have the interim-AD so that it isn't so awkward for Cohen to slide into AD and then immediately hire Corbin for a higher salary than Cohen just stepped out of.

    If it's cohen, I hope we let Henderson interim unless we have a HR locked up. I don't want to settle for a guy bc it's so close to the season

    No clue, but I doubt it really impacts their day to day much.

    The Head Coach position HAS to be settled before Cohen could be announced as AD. November 16th, I believe, is signing day and we have to keep this class intact.

    Howland doesn't have a boss before during or after the new AD is hired

    No way I'd want to be the baseball coach at Miss State and Cohen be my boss. Talk about a micromanaging boss and walking on pins and needles.

    Why does Cohen want to be AD? Seems odd to me
