    We're probably going to save a lot of money with our football coaches and have a good chance of getting better results.
    The most exciting assistant coach JoMo got imo was Huff. He’s one of the top recruiters in the country and was the best recruiter that Franklin had. So glad we got him.

    I like everyone on the staff even Shoop. Getsy is an elite WR coach and Huff is a great coach as you said. Hud can recruit. Marcus Johnson is a huge upgrade. We know what we are getting with T-Buck and Baker. I like Lembaku as well and I think he is a big reason why we are in the game with Nakobe Dean. I like having Joey Jones on ST as a former Sun Belt HC and then we have Boniol who is an elite kicking coach.

    We don't have to hire an established elite coach to be elite. We just have to find the right guy, and surround him with good coaches... we have 1 already in Gautreau
    This kills me to type.....this is the voice of reason in this god awful thread.

    We are doing ok, but our fans deserve more than ok. We could be an elite program if we hire Schloss or McDonell. We could also be an elite program if we hire someone else, but the probability is a lot lower.

    There is an $$ number that will get one of those two coaches to come to Starkville, and Cohen needs to offer it.

    Right, it's "godawful" to want the best coach out there for the best baseball fanbase out there.**

    Give me a break.

    We aren’t going after Schloss again and he didn’t drop out because of his lack of interest. I also think people slamming people on here due to not being right about Schloss don’t know the whole story. Cohen met with Schloss and his wife over the weekend and let’s just say that Cohen was the one who put a kabash on the deal and I don’t blame him. I’m going to trust whoever Cohen selects because he will pick whoever’s best for MSU. Now we have a series to win this weekend to get to Omaha and I say let’s focus on that and not the search.

    We have plenty of money to get it done if we use some of the money we were going to pay Mullen to stay. I sure hope Cohen didn't screw around and lose Schloss just because we were still playing. That would be major blunder in tenure as AD imo.

    Sure hope not. He shouldn't let any elite coach get away just because we are playing. But if I'm not mistaken, our CL beat writer said he wouldn't name a coach till we were done.

    Well if Schloss wasn't the man and Cohen squashed it, then I trust he had good reason. I just feel like it's our time to step up to the plate and hire an elite guy to go with our elite stadium.

    Well, if that's true we should still be going after McDonnell unceasingly

    I agree. But maybe it's Tadlock and we just don't know it.
