If you want to vomit, head over to Steve's Page and checkout the narrative he's being sold by John and the Athletic Department. John might "pass" on the Auburn offer and return!

It really is insane that the only Mississippi State premium site is just a propaganda outlet, but then again it always has been...

If Cohen has a path to return, we don't have any marbles.
I honestly never had a problem with Cohen being the AD aside from I didn't like losing our baseball coach that I believed was elevating the team. That being said, I can't see him being able to return to the AD position after this. I can't imagine him being in charge of fundraising for the university he was trying to leave. I'm not a big money guy, but I can't imagine taking him seriously if I were.

You pay for that site? Really? Seriously?

We were already dead last in the SEC in fundraising. Cohen hates it and doesn’t really push for it

It's a game a lot of "journalists" play to keep access to inside info. Seems like it would be a bad tradeoff to shred your credibility so that you can report some inside info that people won't believe until they hear it from somewhere else, but it most be an ok tradeoff because it appears most "journalists" and not just in the sports world, think it's a good tradeoff.

BTW - the hangup seems to be who will be making the future hires at Auburn: Boosters or John Cohen. Which is hilarious, because everyone knows it will be the boosters.

Cohen should have known that from the very first phone call.

Not to derail the topic that Cohen may return....

however it really bothers me that the 24/7 bunch is seemingly the first go to for MSU news. I will not state my personal opinion on their "journalist" but that message board is a cess pool and the "journalist" are in the middle of it.

I got excited before football and joined over there in august. I will not renew. I'll do the HailState plus deal if anything next purchase.

Is he supposed to come to the Pack for all the inside news and sources? How else is he going to find things to report about?

You're combining the forces of Auburn and John Cohen. Nothing was ever going to be smooth about this.

Can you explain this a little more? I never joined because I didn't care for Jean, but since Rosey took over I considered it. Has it gotten worse?

I don't mind Rosey being the scoop guy, and it's fairly obvious Cohen and Rosey communicated a good bit. Probably why Rosey takes up for him so much.

If you're Keenum, at some point TODAY you announce the formation of a blue ribbon search committee tasked to identify "... Mississippi State's next Athletic Director."

From spending a week of so over there.... it seems to be about 10-12 guys over there that post and start every thread. The posters seem to have the mentality of 16 year olds.... if you don't agree with them...insults, name calling. They have even nicknamed themselves. Thread after thread about minor things around MSU and making mountains out of mole hills. Etc etc. which that can be ignored. But Then Robbie and Steve and Paul interact with them. Robbie more than the other two. Then Robbie brings some of it to Hadads podcast.
My .02 on it.

We're already talking to AD candidates. Cohen isn't coming back. Steve is Cohen's buddy. He's going to try to paint a Rosie picture but even he knows Cohen is done here.

Don't think it's just the GP guys that get childish. They all do if you have a beef with their operation. I got in a little row about Chris Brooks standing in for Matt( I think Brooks sucks doing a show) and Matt, in his infinite wisdom, started calling me Poopert. I congratulated him on his creativity. I mean, c'mon.....are we 8 years old ? Anyway, Cohen has burned his bridge. I have nothing against him, but once you have run, that can't be undone. Heres a quarter

Yeah, I gave up on that site a long time ago when the owner came out about what his views were. I will not support that.

Make this intense bastard make a decision and announcement as soon as possible. I don't want us dealing with a guy who is dumb enough to leave for a place like Auburn for too much longer.

**** off John. You've lost my support even if you stay.

I love you all (except you John)

It's not the only cesspool. There is another one that I tried a few years ago and it's pathetic. But yeah. Not giving him my money.

He can't come back. At least not for very long. I might let him finish out the year and then "retire." But he can't be the AD going forward.
I serious do not think he can do that.

He will have lost a lot of support and fans will take that out on the programs. And that will be a mark against the President for allowing it.

About as funny as Paul Pelosi being chased in his house by a "friend" wearing nothing but underwear holding a hammer with a hard-on.

Yeah, you are not the only one that has stated that. I get screen shots a lot from people that do pay. I mean people that have been there for longer than a decade and it's weird to see that place move from what it was way back then to now.

Nobody wants to say it out loud, but I don't care. They have allowed that place to become nothing more than a beat down by those you are talking about.
