Sandy Cohen Released from NLI

[mugrad2006]

Remember HS kids sign up to play for coaches, not schools, despite what they say. http://painttouches.com/2013/08/01/sandy-cohens-jump-from-anonymity-to-marquette/

That sucks, but if he wanted to be here so badly that he couldn't even wait a full day before asking for his release then good riddance.

[Eldon]

Sandy,

Buzz is a phony.  He has been exposed as an average game coach and a prima donna. Send a PM to some of the people on here and you will get some stories for sure, especially now that they can speak candidly.

And, if in doubt, ask DJ Newbill about Buzz and loyalty, relationships. Or rather, ask Buzz about Newbill and loyalty. And then watch Buzz squirm. I guarantee he looks to the ground once you ask.

Take it easy on the kid.  He made a decision to play at my based on buzz being here.  Buzz leaves and he wants to take control of his future.  There is nothing wrong with that and there is no reason to take shots at him.  He is a high school kid.

[Class71]

Some come some go. Marquette will be fine. Next coach should be selected, in part, to provide stability. MU pays well so why worry.

But you would think that unless he plans to follow Buzz he would wait to see who the new coach is.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Seems like a quick decision.

[mu_eyeballs]

Seems odd to release a kid at 8pm on Saturday?

[Ellenson Guerrero]

Can't blame any of the recruits for fully exploring their options.  They are all in a tough spot.

[Goose]

Stay calm, fella's. Let everything settle out. Who knows maybe new coach will be glad he opted out.

[KenoshaWarrior]

We should have pulled a Uthoff and told him he could not commit to Wisconsin.

[Silkk the Shaka]

We should have pulled a Uthoff and told him he could not commit to Wisconsin.

Yeah cuz that worked out so well for Bo.

[Hards Alumni]

Only on Buzz's squad he would have been.  No need to rip on the dude already.

Depends where he ends up.  Were you really that impressed?

[Texas Western]

I was never sold on this kid. My instinct says he is a big fish in a small pond. This gives our new coach some flexibility. If he is solid and our new coach is solid he will come back.

[MattyWarrior]

Buzz will poach all the recruits and take the assistants, we stand decimated.

[ecompt]

If you thought this year was crap, wait for the next two. DePaul may be laughing at us.

[ecompt]

What about Chew's recruits....

Why would Chew stay on a sinking ship? We lose his recruits, this is bottom-feeder A-10 school the next two years.

[vacinator]

Maybe the new coach didn't want him...

[MUeng]

This shouldnt surprise anyone. Recruits commit to coaches, period. We'll lose all the commits we currently have and the new guy will bring in his batch

Have a drink, man.

We will be fine.  We have cash money.

[mr.MUskie]

Maybe the new coach didn't want him...

But we don't have a name for that yet. Howlanced? Shakarood?

2014 is all dried up, so the batch has to start with 2015.  Mayo and JJJ must return for halfway decent 2014.

Ahmed Hill is the key for 2014 class. He comes, then if Stone and others in 2015, MU fine.

Lose Hill and either Mayo or JJJ, then start to worry bigtime.  

[Class71]

Let's not panic folks. The world has not come to an end. Let's see who the new coach is and the players he selects. Did anyone think these freshman were going to play under Buzz as freshman? It is time we get a coach for the next level and it works out. Have some faith that MU is more than one coach.

[Eldon]

We have Burton and DuWil locked up.  This is very comforting.

If I hear that Todd and Dawson are coming back, then I will feel a whole lot better.  A lot better.

[keefe]

I heard Howland cooled on Cohen
