State fans, chatter here and on your board about Cohen needing to go. How did he get the position in the first place, seems from afar he came out of nowhere even considering him being the baseball HC? Does he have the Board's support at this time?

How so? Cohen has done nothing while the two biggest sports on campus are on probation. He made a terrible Football hire and his baseball hire was some no name after teasing us with some of the biggest names in college baseball. You are the biggest idiot state fan on this board and yes that includes the welcher Josh. At least he has some sense

He was the Assistant AD?

Look, Cohen isn’t the problem. I know you LSU people hate him, the problem is hiring a coach on paper who was a grand slam but turned out to be a called strike 3

Except Cohen isn’t helping or doing anything right in the slightest. Go watch his interview with Pawl the other day. Made himself look like an idiot

ETA I love Cohen as a man and baseball coach. He is a terrible AD though

I didn't like him as the baseball HC, but know nothing about him as the A.D. I was simply repeating what your own board ranters are saying about him. Again, from afar, the 2 programs on probation under his watch does look bad.

I got plenty of sense but I tend on not using it in a place where sense isn't allowed.

You’re the worst state poster on this board by miles. Excuse after excuse and you refuse to see what is really going on.

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

. What did you want him to say. He didn’t owe that aids-death looking paper bag of nasty festering assholes any explanation. You want us to turn into the UT Athletic Department and openly broadcast a 4alarm fire to everyone?

All he had to say was he would deal with it if the problem came instead of making a fool out if himself and making it seem like there is an issue

He’s a small ball coach. No one wants to watch a team built on small ball.

I am fine with him. Overall he has done a good job. Moorhead was a good hire unfortunately last year he was a first year HC with a great defense but had a QB that was coming off a horrific injury and they never really meshed until the damage was done with the loss to UK and Florida.

The other hires, at the time made seemed to be good. AC going off rails as the baseball coach could have hardly been predicted. What an idiot?

Now this year, Moorhead is struggling with several issues. Some of it is on him , some are circumstances that are beyond his control but at the end of the day, the buck stops with him.

Back to Cohen, I think he is a good AD and overall has done a good job.
