Let's hope he DOES the right things.  Off to a good start, though.

[Mike4AU 1,739]

Roberts made the right decision.  Cohen is no ordinary guy!  I really expect to see great things from him.

This is how you change the culture.  Drop the *just* and it changes everything.

But then that leaves you with ABA........

I didn't know Luke Skywalker (on the left) and TedDibiase (on the right) were in Aba?  Pretty sweet, though!

I guess we will just have to spell it out.  Auburn Being Auburn.  Or play *Dancing Queen* a lot.

That answer will probably come back to bite him - otherwise, why would someone ask

Because that's how our last coach was hired

It was a dig at Allen Greene.  Hardly think that will “bite” Cohen. 

Just ignore that guy, I've seen nothing since he joined that says anything but, "troll"

He was, but he usually paid Virgil to go on stage and sing for him.

Which ones?

Personally my 2 names for this would be Deion and Grimes. 

Both can recruit, both would embrace the culture, and both have a great concept of the game. 

My only downside to both of them are their lack of HC experience...

I assume you mean Systems

@selias 

@AEAugirl

Had seen much of the same as well. 

[im4aual 487]

Already light years ahead of Allen Greene.

Significant possibility that it won’t happen until right after conference championship games.

Appreciate that perspective but won't that be too late for hiring Freeze or Prime - both of whom won't be in conf champ games; Kiffin either.

Well - I didn't know that - and now, I feel creepy about wanting to buy myself a hot tub for my birthday. #sketchy #WDE

Cohen said one more thing I didn't really like: the search firm would not recommend names but would only handle the logistics of the process for a new head football coach. Isn't that pre-disqualifying some people before you start? Is he selecting his own guy or is he only selecting from a pre-selected pool of applicants, or applicant... Your thoughts?

I don’t think that is what he meant at all.

I think that is what he meant. What else would it be?

[Mike4AU 1,739]

Cohen said the search firm would be involved in logistics and background checks and would not be recommending coaches.
