Cohen cleaned things up before he left

[MSUGUY]

2022 FB won the egg bowl and ended ranked, no coaching controversy to speak of, Jans’ team has everyone excited, the Lady dawgs seem better. Lady soccer did well. Hopefully Baseball will be better.

Ole Miss, Auburn, and T A&M just don’t have good leadership.

We will need a good replacement for sure.

Cleaned things up? He created the football mess. Jans was the Adidas hire. Sam was round two of a huge mistake. I can't give him credit for anything other than his love, baseball. I will give him credit there. Other than that, he was a mess in marketing and on the NIL side. Both took off as soon as he left.
He's Auburns problem now.

I'm no Cohen lover, hater nor apologist, but he deserves credit for acting decisively on Canizarro & Moorhead.

So does Adidas hire all of our basketball coaches? People said Howland was an Adidas hire and now Jans is too? Does Adidas care that much about MSU basketball?

I am indifferent on Cohen mostly. I am thankful for what he did for the baseball program. But he was average at best on his hires in the other big sports, and hiring was supposed to be his selling point. He was downright awful at many other things that ADs need to do. He was a penny pincher and that served us well during COVID.

So there was good and bad. He did an average job but it was time to move on. Nothing needed to be cleaned up.

that's why Auburn hired him...to keep Freezus in line and fire his *** when he buys the next phone

AD’s are going to make bad hires. That is just a crapshoot. You can’t say he didn’t hire any of the good coaches but did hire all the bad ones. That’s pretty ridiculous. He left us in a very good position as far as coaches in the big 3 sports. The most important thing to do is to reconcile a mistake as soon as you know it’s a mistake and he did that in baseball and football and he got us a Good basketball coach. Now NIL, he deserves all the smoke for that **** show. He was an awful fundraiser and he was an awful marketing guy. That is what we should really be upset with him about. His coaching hires hit on a higher clip than most, even if it took him 2 tries.

Feel like the whole adidas thing is getting vastly overplayed.

Shoe companies basically run AAU and the top players usually go to a specific school based on what shoe company their AAU team is and go to a college that has the same.

Agree. But it’s not like he had any choice on Cannizzaro. And he does deserve blame for hiring both of them in the first place. And Nikki McCrea.

Same with Moorhead. The premise and timing behind that hire was horrific, in addition to how bad of a fit he was.
