Chalk me up as one that doesn't like Cohen as AD.

He has made five hires:

1. Joe Moorhead. Instead of hiring someone with SEC experience when we had a great team coming back, he went with a guy that he can have an intellectual conversation with. Moorhead is smart - he's not a good fit at MSU. Our players are dumb.

2. Soccer Coach #1. He did hire a soccer coach from Miami that took us to our first ever NCAA Tournament. But had to fire him (he went to Western Illinois) because he had improperties with players.

3. Soccer Coach #2. He learned his lesson and hired a classic SEC assistant. Seems to be fine but who cares.

4. Andy Cannizaro. Current high school baseball coach. Rode Jake Mangum to Omaha while chasing tail.

5. Chris Lemonis. A decent hire, but very underwhelming based on how he handled the search. Went to Omaha, but that team was loaded. We'll see what he does this year.

Three complete failures and a couple of maybes. Cohen fans give him credit for Ben Howland and Vic Schafer but those belong to the current AD at Florida. He deserves credit for paying the $ to keep Schafer though.

He's also hired a softball coach that was a promotion from within on July.

Which I'll say I like the move to get rid of Vann even if it wasn't for the reasons that it should've been.

But I agree. I really thought it was an odd move when he was named AD and I'm not a fan of it today
