The most Cohen quotes of all time

[DawgatAuburn]

Context: Auburn is searching for a softball coach. The old coach announced his retirement 10 weeks ago and it's been more than two weeks since Auburn's season ended, so folks are getting antsy.


Nominee #1:
“I feel more of an urgency to get it right than to do it quickly,” Auburn athletic director John Cohen said when asked about the coaching vacancy at an APSE region meeting on Monday morning.

Nominee #2
“It’s like everything else we deal with, we live in an information age,” Cohen said. “There’s more information to go through and decipher than ever before. So, it just takes a while.”

Nominee #3
“The question I love to ask the most to our candidates: ‘If you had a pie chart, in your opinion, what percentage of the pie chart to get to Oklahoma City would involve recruiting and evaluation and what portion of it is player development?’”


I'm all in on #3.

We will miss you Coach Rickets!

 

[dawgman42]

I'm going with number

 

[SteelCurtain74]

I would go with #2 only because he had 58 things he was looking for when he hired the football coach:

John Cohen has a list of 58 things he's looking for in Auburn's next coach - Footballscoop

 

[DWarren]

I cannot fathom getting antsy over a softball coaching search.

 

[Duke Humphrey]

I cannot fathom getting antsy over a softball coaching search.

Alabama is in the WCWS, so of course they are.....

 

[17itdawg]

We will miss you Coach Rickets!

More like, we'll miss you Tyler Bratton. The Cohen way, over promise and underdeliver.

So, Auburn has 58 cigar boys?

I can hear Cohen saying something more like: "We've got to find someone to teach our girls how to bunt!"

 

[Shmuley]

Somewhere there is a mediocre big ten team about to get their softball coach lifted.

 

[Dawgg]

Alabama is in the WCWS, so of course they are.....

It's kind of like how Ole Miss didn't care about WBK until we started competing for national championships. Suddenly, they were hiring Coach Yo and going all in with the transfer portal.

 

[Dawgg]

Just putting this out there...

Indiana's softball team just finished 6th in the Big Ten and got put out in the NCAA Regional. Sound like anybody we know?

What circle do you hang out with where people are getting antsy about a softball head coach, do you own a Suburu?

The only part Cohen played in hiring Freeze was running messages back and forth between Freeze' agent and Jimmy Rane.

I just read the news. I report, you decide.

 

[Perd Hapley]

So, Auburn has 58 cigar boys?

Probably. They are only called “cigar boys” at MSU, because MSU is about the only school where the group is small enough to all fit in the same room to share a lighter.

John cohen makes my head hurt. Get off your *** and make a damn decision. I’d hate to have him as a leader on the battlefield. Geez.. the man will get you killed. Quick.

 

[HotMop]

I just read the news. I report, you decide.

An Outback I reckon.

 

[ZombieKissinger]

Nominee #3
‘If you had a pie chart…”

Lemonis: “Pumpkin pie”
Cohen: “You’re hired”

 

[dawgstudent]

So they hired a husband and wife as co-head coaches. I don't want it to happen but if for some reason they get a divorce as co-head coach....

 

[jethreauxdawg]

I thought it was 84

 

[HotMop]

I hope they paid the husband more than the wife.

 

[Drebin]

I hope they paid the husband more than the wife.

It's times like these that I miss Mutt.

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

This is some “smartest guy in the room” stuff for sure. Why hire one good head coach when you can have two wholly unproven ones??!
