    I don't really get it, to be honest. I'm just not sure what makes Cohen a better pick than someone who actually has experience in all the things an AD does. Being an AD uses virtually none of the same traits that being a baseball coach does. Maybe he has those, but it seems like a pretty big risk. Especially because it potentially leaves you worse off with your baseball coach as well.

    We are probably the first school to ever have an interim AD that is more qualified than the AD we hired. Awesome job MSU GOB network.

    It doesn't make sense to you because you have a functioning brain. You're right that it's a huge risk and it's likely to blow up in our face.

    Keenum looks like a clown show for his remarks. Mother of god. Embarrassing.

    That's not much better than settling. Unless we land Corbin which I think is a pipe dream we're going to downgrade at baseball coach no matter what.

    My thoughts exactly.

    Cohen being the AD wouldn't be a huge surprise. Him being named in a few days after we just named an interim guy would be surprising. It makes no sense to have an interim AD for less than a week.

    Keenum probably just wanted to announce someone other than Cohen first to save some face. If Cohen is announced shortly, keenum looks like a clown

    Corbin IMO is a pipe dream as stated above. He has so many advantages where he is currently at. He would be crazy to leave unless we almost doubled his salary.

    No, Keenum pretty much looks like a clown no matter what if Cohen ends up being the final pick. His fence straddling of the state flag issue for political points, handling of this AD situation, and alleged chewing out of Mullen after the Will Redmond scandal have all severely lowered my opinion of him. He can GTFO and go ahead and run for governor or Congress as far as I'm concerned.

    I agree that Cohen can potentially bring fire and a winning attitude to the AD position, but unless Corbin is our new HC I will continue to be pessimistic about it. State baseball is the only MSU sport I vigorously follow. I do not want to see it tank again.

    If the will Redmond deal is correct, that could explain Mullen's allegedly job searching last year once dak left

    The only way I see it happening would be that and if he just wanted to try to win a NC here.

    What about his alleged job searching before that?

    Maybe they want Cohen as AD and he wants it too so he can oversee the new ballpark getting built exactly how he wants it. Not sure I like this since he wanted fake grass put in the foul lines what other stupid shit does he want the new park to have?
