I swear they actually think Cohen walked into the room and told the selection. Committee to sit down and shut up while he draws out exactly how the bracket will be done. And dont they dare question where he has MSU.
The Spirit is such great reading
- Thread starter hatfieldms
- Start date
There has to be a reason for everything, and it can't just be "Mississippi State is better than us." Their egos can't handle it. So they have to create a villain. Jackie Sherrill, Dan Mullen, LT, now Cohen.....wash, rinse, repeat.
Is there any evidence that Cohen didn't have the rest of the committee bound and gagged until the bracket was released?
Actual quote from the spirit:
“Cohen painted a dadgum masterpiece. A team that was run ruled twice in the conference tournament wound down up with weakest regional, got paired with a 2 national seed they had already beaten, and then faced a regional 3 seed in 2nd round of CWS showed that Cohen is the rightful heir to TEMPLETON, the most powerful man in sports.“
Remarkable.
The beauty of it all is they're giving high praise to a guy that set MSU
athletics back 10 years, maybe more. Croom, Polk 2.0, the list goes on and on.

Him and Grisham worked behind the scenes to set this up. Grisham only pretends to hate MSU. He actually LOVES us.
Am I mid-remembering or was the Starkville regional not the 2nd or 3rd toughest from a combined RPI standpoint?
Then, we get matched up in the Supers with one of the hottest teams in the country who just decimated their regional by a combined 50-5 score
Then, we draw the highest remaining national seed in Omaha in game 1 only to have to turn around and face a team that just blanked the second highest remaining national seed two days prior
Yep, it’s been a cakewalk for the Dawgs this year

They're REALLY going to pissed by his next move. A special rule that allows us to re-structure and increase our scholarships to provide full rides for our entire roster (a la Vandy) while keeping them at 11.7.**
Man, don't you know, RPI is worthless, depending on whether the argument benefits Ole Miss or not. Otherwise, it's the gold-standard.
That's satire, right? If that's satire making fun of their other fans, that's pretty good.
So you're saying we can expect 8-4 Mississippi State to get into the expanded playoff next year? Cool!
Of course, didn’t he once say “he now knows what Hell is like after coaching at UM”? Smart man!
Of course they will. That's what they do. We should embrace it. You can't call us "necks" and "neck tech," and "moo-u" and whatever else they come up with, and at the same time accuse us of having power and influence to draw favorable results from our governing bodies. It's either one or the other and they really need to pick an argument and stick with it.
From my perspective, I embrace their John Cohen melt. It means we are elite and better than them. It means we have friends in high places that they don't. The universe usually works out as it is intended.
That is some high quality comedy right there. So Cohen somehow orchestrated Virginia to win a regional and super? These people are living in la la land.
While they waste their time on hat flipping recruits we have quietly been putting people into positions to aid us and to thwart them. Well played LT, well played.
State plays the long game akin to the Count of Monte Cristo.
The state’s camel was killed in the battle of Vicksburg. Campbell College had to go down.
Notre Dame ended our best chance so far at a Natty. Notre Dame had to go down.
Texas took out our pitcher in 85 and unleashed Ricky Williams in 99. Texas had to go down twice.
Virgina took Grisham’s money. Virginia had to go down.
Texas took Vic so they may hafta go down a 3rd time.
Cam played most of his career in NC, so NC State May hafta go down.
Vandy may hafta go down just because of the 17n Whistler and that cockeyed court.

And here is where it gets deep. When we beat VA in the super a few years ago the score was the same as we beat them the other day...6-5. Cohen is some next level dark ops.
Sooooo... We would be much more powerful and deserving if we had played Southern Miss in our regionals and then lost to the first team eliminated from Omaha in two games?
View attachment 20706
Even more diabolical is that Cohen arranged for Hoglund and Elko to get injured during the season, thus preventing them from getting a higher national seed, "easier" regional and "easier" super regional.
They went full retard so hard that after a day and a half of this thread, Jung still hasn't figured out how to jump in and rationalize it
Here's a little ditty i found...
[h=1]College Football Playoff recusal policy: If school pays you, you're out[/h][h=2]Playoff selection committee members with a conference affiliation must leave the discussion about that team and would not have a vote.[/h]Seems obvious to me but it is a NCAA rule...I'm sure for baseball also.

Of course they have that rule for baseball too, but don't tell the Rebs. It will ruin a perfectly good narrative.
I sure wish he would use that power to keep us from having to play Alabama in football everyear.
Maybe the intensity of him just being in the hallway caused them to cower and give us this easy path..
