Me too. You hired a coach I never expected to get. And we got a coach that no only will entertain me. But also is a winner at Texas Tech and Washington State. Both inferior programs to MSU in terms of revenue and recruiting. And you were able to outscheme people to best USC Oregon Texas Or Oklahoma to win.

Hell is we have to trade a loss to Arkansas for like LSU ifgaf. You're gonna have us winning in the long run.


I love you Pirate. Thank you Cohen for having the guts to make this decision. This doesn't feel real. Hail fricking State

Ditto. I feel bad for hating on him and props to Cohen for proving me wrong. Guess that’s why I’m a catfish farmer and he is an athletic director.

Also never have I seen a collective fanbases emotions go from pissed to depressed to excited so damn fast

We like to get on Cohen for some of his decisions, but one thing that I always liked about Cohen is he has always had an accurate finger on the pulse of our university. He knew whoever he would hire was going to keep us where we've been historically for the past decade; a 7-8 win program every year. Except, this time he knew the program needed a shot of adrenaline after a lull with Joe for 2 years. He did exactly that and was willing to pony up the money. Props to him for seeing that Joe was not the long term solution. And props to him for putting himself 2nd to the best interest of our program.

I'm interested in seeing how he handles Howland from here on out. If we miss the tournament with our roster; it might be time to put some feelers out on the state of our basketball program.

Leach was a brilliant hire because while I don’t think he gets us a championship he should keep us around 7-9 wins and maybe one or two special seasons. And he is 58 so doubt he bolts for another program. And the fan base is excited so I think people will be more patient with Leach. We just didn’t like Moorhead and his arrogance and that lost him a ton of support. You can only be like that if you win like Saban does

Yes, might be. Let's not forget Rick Ray so quickly. Our basketball situation is drastically different than football. Howland is a big name, and the spotlight will be directly on Cohen if he replaces him with some up and coming coach who potentially falls on his face.

As long as he gets us back to the tournament I'm fine with it. 0 excuse for this team to miss it
