Could Miss. State have gone to the CWS with Cannizaro at the helm?

Serious question.
It seems that after the firing of Cannizaro that Miss. State had a lot of ups and downs this year, but ended the year trending up and is on a mission to end the year on an extremely high note (I won't anger the baseball gods at State by saying potentially where).
Had Cannizaro kept his hands out of the cookie jar, gotten his shite together, and coached this team, would he have gotten them to Omaha, or did the adversity of losing Cannizaro and battling back from that, and making Henderson, an old, steady hand, the head coach, set them on this year's path?

Why's it matter? I don't think State fans care and probably excited about what their team has done.
What ifs don't matter, it won't change anything and we will never know. This State team should be proud of their accomplishments without Cannizaro.

If Cann kept his dick in his pants and focused on baseball, absolutely. He was a better coach imo. But considering he let everything get in his way, no.

Yes

Yes. But only if Cann got away from LB and did his job. Imagine if Cann did his job the whole time and the sexting thing never existed.

It's impossible to say. Could they have had a better regular season? Sure. Had they had a different regular season, they may have been sent to a different regional and had a completely different road to the CWS. We saw 4 national seeds fail to make it out of the regionals. Two national seeds have to win today to advance. As of today, only 2 national seeds have advanced to Omaha. There's just way too much variance in baseball to say what would or wouldn't have happened if Canny was still the HC.

It's a lot of "luck of the draw"
State has now been to 3 straight Supers, and this was the worst of the 3 squads. Yet, this team is headed to Omaha. Last year MSU had to face an LSU team that they just didn't match up with.

Canni didn’t do anything wrong, IMO. Morally wrong yes but he just got shite on because he got caught.
I really don’t see how his sex life influences being a baseball coach but maybe that’s just me.

They would have put on these shoulder pads and mowed over the competition!

If I recall correctly, it was a player on the team that reported Cann to cohen. Sounds like the players didn’t like him as much as he seemed to think they liked him. At any rate, Jake Gautreau is who has their attention now. And they will do anything for him.

He really screwed himself over real well.
Did he get paid the remainder of his contract?

Is this like 1989 Michigan hoops ?

Hell no. Y'all act like the only thing Cann was doing wrong was sexting in the dugout and getting his noodle wet with foreign sauce. Hardly. The moron was the type to post instagram pics and send snapchats at 4am in the gym flexing. It's no coincidence the rumors of snow white being popular amongst the team completely stopped once Cann was gone. Dude was running a Jersey Shore redneck party not a baseball team. Players had no respect for him wether they'd admit that or not.

Cannizzaro has the potential to be a great college baseball coach. Unfortunately he doesn’t have the discipline to stay focused on it.
