Blame is the first thing many people do when things go wrong...

[jdbulldog]

it does not matter if it is athletics, an automobile accident, a work issue or any other scenario. It can be completely frustrating to one in a leadership position. Strong organizations have a much higher percentage of people who pay no attention to blamers and put their asses in gear working toward solutions. Message board blamers are the worst of the worst. Flames everywhere, so go and get some gas and add to the flames. Don't even think about grabbing the fire extinguisher. It is a good thing Cohen ignored everyone and pushed his "organization" back onto the track. Mullen can do the same thing.

Cohen wasn't shopping for jobs every year and his recruiting didn't suck.

This place is turning into Genespage with cussing

If you believed the

geniuses on here, the same ones making absurd assertions of Mullen, Cohen's recruiting did in fact suck...

Amazing how conveniently this is forgotten now in the face of hundreds of examples on here.

It's my fault guys. I fell asleep at half time. Put the blame on me.

Mullen = 57-39 (.594), sec = 27-32 (.458)

Cohen (miss state) = 284-203-1 (.583), sec = 108-130 (.454)

They're pretty similar with cohen's highs higher and lows lower than Mullen.

During their coaching careers at state, 1 west school (lsu '09) won a natty in baseball and 5 (bama x4 and auburn) have won a natty in football

This, and the fact that we did not properly solve the lemonade problem before the game

So after Mullen`s years of unprecedented success at State, why does our program look like it does ? Last night wasn`t a one play or one player problem. We looked like a boat without a rudder. You would expect stability in at least some areas of the program at this juncture. Our best unit is our defense which Mullen is least involved with and has a new coordinator every year. WTF

edited to add: We just don`t look like a stable program in a rebuilding year to me.

Cohen's recruiting never sucked dude.
He recruited for the game at the time and that game changed. Then he adapted hence the success last year.
Criticize mullenz recruiting is fine but not Cohen. He's consistently gotten great talent. Look at the majors

State draft picks in baseball since '11...
'11 -- 4 (1 in top 15 rounds)
'12 -- 3 (1 in top 15)
'13 -- 7 (5 in top 15)
'14 -- 4 (3 in top 15)
'15 -- 0
'16 -- 11 (7 in top 15)

Football...
'11 -- 4
'12 -- 3
'13 -- 3
'14 -- 1
'15 -- 5
'16 -- 3

Obviously Cohen jacked up recruiting somewhere to have no picks in '15 and a dead last sec finish.

Mullen jacked up a few years back to get current results

Look back about 6 months. March or April should be far enough.

If the majors is the measure of getting talent -- we can certainly also look at the NFL.

I don't think you

comprehended my point.
