I don't know anything about his package but anything short of a national title is going to possibly cause a melt down.

What is his Package and what is he worth to us today??

According to the ESPN article, Cohen took a ~ $100K 'cut' in pay when he left Kentucky to come 'home' to MSU.

AL.com list of SEC Baseball Coach Salaries in 2013 had Cohen as the #2 in the SEC behind Paul Mainieri, LSU ..

Total wild *** guess on my part, but for some reason the number $625k sticks in my mind.

It was 632,500 back in 2013 before our run to the CWS Runner-Up. No idea what it is now. I'd imagine he got a raise after that, or at least more to be earned in bonuses.

You lost me at "According to the ESPN article"

Sorry .. article was discussed earlier this week. Cohen replaces legendary Polk, despite former coach's protests .. See entire article here
"Had John accepted our offer, in my opinion, he would have had one of the top five contracts in the nation for a baseball coach," Barnhart said.

Cohen agreed to a four-year contract worth $250,000 a year in state funds. He'll also receive an undisclosed amount in private money that will push his total salary past Polk's nearly $300,000. He turned down a 10-year contract with Kentucky that would have included a significant raise to his $400,000 annual salary.
