Not bad for a middle tier big 10 coach**

Just imagine how good we’d be if we didn’t have lemon head

Where are all those Cohen haterrs ? Cat got your tongue?

I turned on Cohen a few weeks ago when I realized that the HailState YouTube channel has become public broadcasting that puts as much track and field or tennis content out there as Baseball. Baseball is by far the most marketable sport vs the rest of the NCAA we have. YouTube is a marketing platform. It should be used as such.

He has dorked up 90% of the decisions he has made as AD. Leach was a self foist after he wiffed on Moorhead and got catfished by Napier and others.

Lemonis has been great and so has baseball. I don't hate Cohen for Cannizaro, but Cohen has had major turnover on his watch and every sport has underperformed the last few years except for baseball.

Time for a new AD. Cohen would make for a wonderful assistant AD in charge of baseball...

Meow.

Pretty impressive considering he’s been coaching an average Mississippi State team**

I mean, how dare we actually promote the other sports that are going on right now.

I read
“Chris Lemonis
Fattest Mississippi state baseball coach in 100 years”
And nodded my head. When I read the replies I had to go back up and re-read the op

Nobody gives a **** about those other sports... Sad fact. By all means support them and promote them, but not at the expensive of baseball. Somebody is screwing the pooch. All of the content that is getting put on the baseball Twitter account, could easily be compiled into a weekly 5 minute highlight video on YouTube.

OM puts together a 5-10 minute highlight video of every baseball game. We don't do jack ****... 1 baseball highlight video all season on YouTube from SBW. It's pathetic management of that platform.

Any baseball coach is going to get second guessed a lot but I must say that I trust the decisions Lemonis makes about 99% of the time. The guy really gets MSU baseball and seems to know what it takes to get to Omaha better than some coaches that have been at it for much longer.
The other thing I really like about Lemonis is that he may be low key but he freaking hates losing. Not a lot of “that’s baseball” coming out of his mouth.

^^The Colorblind one isn't wrong, he's just a little salty about it.

I have no problem with them promoting all sports, but it is odd that the baseball highlights, videos, etc that are put on twitter aren't also on youtube, for they used to be. In my head I feel like more people have access to youtube than have twitter accounts.

This is correct. I'm not making some wild statement that I pulled from my ***... Go scroll through the HailState YouTube account and look at the views of these videos. A soccer highlight video from last month has 57 views... That means the players and their families didn't even all watch it. When I say nobody cares, I mean nobody cares to even attempt to watch it. 57 views... Its sad.

The one baseball highlight video (that was cut and has an extended version) Has more views than the last 50 other videos uploaded that didn't include Leach. I'm not saying don't make the other videos, just don't sacrifice something that people care about and spend $ on to help prop up those other sports that would fold like the French resistance if it weren't for the handful of sports people pay to watch.

Just a few years ago, when they were producing the On Deck or Relentless baseball productions you were getting 40-50k views on a college baseball video. That **** matters. It helps in awareness. Recruiting. Fundraising. It's a big deal. What in the 17 happened?

It seems the HailState Productions team is all in on Twitter... Which is a great place to interact with recruits and or get your *** in trouble with the various Twitter mobs (Coach Leach.) But content like highlights and videos belong on YouTube. It's not rocket science. YouTube destroys every other platform not named Facebook in active users.

To prove how popular our college baseball game highlights can be on YouTube, go check out the YouTube Channel for Wheels. They put together 10 minute or so highlights of most SEC baseball games. Here is the highlight from last night's game vs Missouri ... 10K views already. Some of our other games are pushing 100K views. That should be on the HailState channel driving awareness to all sports.
