If it weren't for that, I'd say it's a decent hire. Maybe they found out he was talking with us and they cut him loose? Who knows? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last hire who came with a “oh PLEASE take him” from his previous school was Brian Harsin. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like the last couple hires at MSU but at the same time they have been pretty good by MSU standards. The baseball team is top notch. He knows how to run a power 5 program. And experience in SEC. We could do way worse. We did. It was Allen Greene. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has done much more at Mississippi State than anything Hartwell has done . 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aubie57 119 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I wouldn’t listen to anything a Mississippi state fan says. Trust me, I live amongst them. IMO they are the worst fans in the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

autiger88 3,888 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Well apparently it's done we shall see! I'm excited for this Hire I'll be even more when he fires Harsin. Edited October 29, 2022 by autiger88 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KansasTiger 3,261 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I havent heard a single real reason why this is a bad hire yet. We went after a sitting AD in the SEC from a school experiencing above their normal success benchmark. And he might even have experience with facility upgrades. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDUBB4AU 5,358 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Is this a bad thing? I don’t know anything about ADs. He has had a decent athletic department.

NWALA Tiger 3,698 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Folks. Don't get upset at whoever is named AD..... The head coach choice is so much more important. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

au302 2,669 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 The question is if the PTB's will support this hire. Was Cohen their guy, or did Roberts do this all on his own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never had any issues with any ole miss fans. I’ve been talking with one of my state friends. He is not a Cohen fan at all.He also says Butch Thompson will leave Auburn if Cohen is hired. Apparently there’s not a lot of love there. Edited October 29, 2022 by aubie57 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jabo 36 Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) If true, I do not believe it’s a bad hire at all. One thing for sure is that he isn’t scared to think outside the box on hires. I really never expected to Leach at MSU. Overall their sports program hasn’t been bad the past few years. Edited October 29, 2022 by Jabo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
