they are seperate issues but completely related
let's make a card game analogy. if higher cards are worth more you don't pick up a 4 and set down a 9. our goal was(I have to believe) to improve the program. we may have "resigned" a 10/Jack but it's looking like we picked up a 5 bc we thought we could hire a queen/king. This is our problem - reality. We won't find better than Stans.
I'll never agree with the decision. The cancer of the team was leaving anyway and we have a good class lined up. Whether Pollard or Hood would have been around, we'll never really know. Here's something you'll never hear again: "Mississippi State has the 3rd most wins in the SEC in the last 10 years behind Kentucky and Florida."
Damn it, why did we hire this Cohen fool. Total disaster!!! We should have stuck with what we had!!! Polk never came in last in the sec! Twice in a row... And this guy is mean to our players and ran off all our talent!
Ray has done some good things and some bad things. Bottom line is, if you have real expectations for this year, you were always going to be disappointed. There were positives and negatives from tonight's game. Next year, the rubber meets the road, or his seat should be scalding hot.
The fact that Ray may/may not be the right hire is inconsequential to the fact that it was time to move on from Stansbury. They are literally two different things entirely -- and I don't understand why people have trouble disconnecting them...
