"I love John, he's a former player, but he knew how I felt. And when he walks into his new office, there will only be a desk and chair. No papers on the players or anything. I don't like what's done, but I guess he really wanted this job very bad. Good luck."

<span style="font-weight: bold;">Holy ****. How can he say that? Unreal.</span>

"Is he the best candidate, I don't know. I say give him four years. If he doesn't get the job done, then fire him."

<span style="font-weight: bold;">HOLY ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</span>

"But no, Greg Byrne wanted to make a splash. But he's not a Mississippi State guy, and doesn't understand what MSU baseball is all about. His honeymoon is over. He blew it."

<span style="font-weight: bold;">No,Coach, you are wrong. I'm just starting foreplay with him.</span>

and with that, bascally implied Cohen is not a good coach, and only did well because of that.

And money from his will? Damn, you don't get money thirty years from now. Winning will make up for that.

I'm going to ask former players who give to quit.
I know more about Mississippi State baseball than anyone. Greg Byrne doesn't know anything. Well, he's about to find out what my name means
Greg Byrne may be the athletic director, but I'm the athletic director for baseball. I've been there for 31 years, and no one is more loyal than me.

Not only do we lose Polk's $$$, we lose KB21's future earnings as well.

details of KYs lottery, but the major scholarship that it provides to most is less than MTAG.

he's planning on taking his name off the stadium. I thought this might happen. We'll see if he actually does it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

This is only going to get better. For you guys, be glad that you made a good hire, but this is going to be entertaining to watch him pout. Dudy-Noble Field at Dement Stadium next year.

He talked about Ky and the lottery system helping their scholarships, and that basically Cohen was crazy to leave that state for Ms State because we have zero help in funding additional monies. But didn't RP leave Ga for Ms State, and they have the 4th most 1st drafts in MLB the last several years plus all of the additional money to help fund baseball! What the hell has RP been smoking?
As for as him demanding his name off the concourse and CF wall, I hope someone gets some spray paint out tonight to save the university some money for the removal!

People who have come unhinged rarely make idle threats. I fully expect him to follow through with his entire laundry list.

You're probably right. He's been off his rocker all year. Why would he hold back now? Of course I fully expect that MSU won't honor his wishes to take his name off the stadium. At that point, I expect him to put up his own scaffolding and go up there to try to take the letters off the stadium himself. That would be entertaining to see the old man up there removing his name by hand.

He's really being unprofessional. Hiring the baseball coach is not his job. Make the recommendation, and if it isn't honored, feel free to say that you would have liked to see Raffo get hired, but then step aside and say you'll support Cohen. Honestly, the sooner he leaves Starkville, the better at this point.

Greg should post security and keep Polk away from any and all MSU property after threats to remove everything from the office. Consider Polk a senile man, and should be escorted off campus when spotted due to possible trespassing. Same as if he tries to have his name removed, as he says he will.

A big FU and stay out of town, stay in Georgia if you like.

keep us posted on whether Byrne has to hire a lawyer to get a f'n restraining order against the old bastard to ban him from campus. Hilarity ensues.

"The Defendant, Ronald G. Polk, is ordered to remain 500 feet or more away from Polk-Dement Stadium until further order of this Court."

Vance Watson ought to consider changing the locks on Polk's office and having his removal of personal items supervised by campus police.

Player profiles and recruiting files should be declared university property and treated as such.

This is all so strange and sad.

...but someone I know very well finds him/herself in the middle of situations within the AD from time to time. I wish I could explain it further.

..if Polk destroys player information or takes it with him I fully expect a lawsuit to be filed. Stolen workplace information is a serious crime and would probably constitute multiple charges for each player's information. He'd be looking at a truck load if so. I might even have University attorneys contact a judge to inquire about the possibility of having him legally restrained from campus since he has threatened this action already.

I would grant his wish to remove his name from the stadium and send him an official letter of disassociation.

This is such a sad day.

that he will take his player notes and everything. What a childish way to react.

they suck.

That said, it's not like he doesn't have scouting reports on us or anything and a xerox machine somewhere conveniently located in the Lexington area.</p>

aren't his. Watson should chain the doors and post a guard.

That way tomorrow's headlines can describe Polk's arrest as well the Cohen hire. That would just be perfect.

Polk, you son of a *****, go straight to hell. Loyalty ain't always a good thing - ask Hitler's former buddies. You are a dickhole and don't deserve to have your name on sacred grounds of DUDY NOBLE FIELD.

....it for the skeptical people, then nothing will. I understand Polk being disappointed about his recommendation not being fulfilled, but he's just acted like a complete and foolish CHILD these past couple of months. His reaction after Cohen being hired just puts the icing on the cake. Good riddance you dopey, maniacal roaming gnome.

sounds like a sad old man to me, screw him, most of his accomplishments were done before anyone other than LSU and State gave a rat's *** about baseball.
