Posts: 5178 06/04/09 01:37 AM	Tags : None and an MSU graduate or fan. What would you donate money to? If it were me, believe me, our baseball program would be in much better shape. I would be the Bobby Lowder of college baseball- except with some knowledge of what the hell is going on. I would have gotten rid of Polk a LONG time ago, (actually, I would have made sure that he was never brought back in the first place) and I would make sure that we got the best baseball coach that we could and that he is the paid well for it. I would also make sure that Dudy-Noble Field stays the Carnigie Hall of college baseball and that everything is done first class. Actually, scratch that, I would build a new baseball stadium and put my name on it. Guess who's name wouldn't be on it? I would then make them retire the number 4.

Who would that have been? It's clear you would not have hired Cohen, so who would you have hired?

Posts: 5179 06/04/09 07:48 AM	It was pretty clear that he wanted the job in 2001, and I think he would have done a great job at MSU. He was the Air Force Academy's most successful coach and then took over Notre Dame and made them a very good program, which is very difficult to do in the North. We didn't give him the time of day.

Posts: 1051 06/04/09 08:17 AM	I would adopt 75 of the best football players in the nation and 13 of the best basketball players in the world. We would be #1 at every sport as long as I was alive (which will be for another 70 yrs or so hopefully).

Posts: 3307 06/04/09 08:20 AM Dr. Death	I would only change a few things: If it were me, believe me, our baseball program would be in much better shape. I would be the Bobby Lowder of college baseball- except with some knowledge of what the hell is going on. ~~I would have gotten rid of Polk a LONG time ago, (actually, I would have made sure that he was never brought back in the first place) and~~ I would (try to) make sure that we got the best baseball coach that we could and that he is the paid well for it. I would also make sure that Dudy-Noble Field stays the Carnigie Hall of college baseball and that everything is done first class. Actually, scratch that, I would build a new baseball stadium and put my name on it. Guess who's name wouldn't be on it? I would then make them retire the number 4. I would also throw a serious amount of money at the football program and build build something way better than the hump. But mainly I wouldn't try to act like I was the AD and do the hiring and firing. I would strongly encourage the AD to get the best person out there and to pay them extremely well. I would voice my displeasure when a coach does poorly but I wouldn't "get rid of them" because I know enough now about sports to really enjoy it but don't think that I would have time to really focus on how a championship team is being built since I would be a billionaire. I would have A TON of other stuff to do. Lt. Gen. Stephen D. Lee... Vicksburg National Military Park

Posts: 177 06/04/09 08:37 AM	I would buy the old Burger King and make it the Toots Shor's of Starkville. Then I would invite the big 3 coaches over and offer them free tabs for life and ask what else they need. Whoever made the best case would get the most attention from my wallet. ___________________ rebelroundup.com/roundup

Posts: 192 06/04/09 11:46 AM	make the West side match the east, close in the north endzone and put in a bad ass club level like "The Zone" at Bama. There would be sky boxes on top.The seats would come down right to the field. Then I would I would close in the South endzone as well. Make the windows on the front of the M-club sliding glass doors that open up to outdoor seats. This way our team could run out of an actual tunnel. Of course update the bathrooms, councourses and shit. I want it to fell like you are INSIDE a building like other stadiums do, not UNDER bleachers. I'd pay for renovations to Dudy Noble. I'd like an entrance like Scooba has talked about and at the front I'd put a plaque with that shit that John Grisham wrote about Dudy Noble. In addition, I would donate so much money to the academic part of the school that State could hire the best professors and move out of the bottom tier of SEC schools. Leave OM in the dust.

Posts: 100 06/04/09 11:52 AM	I would donate to improve the football stadium. If attendance gets over 50,000 on average, I would want to have it expanded. We need a bigger place than the Hump for basketball. Baseball would be the richest program in America. Maybe an indoor baseball stadium. Edited to add: We would never 17ing play La Tech in 17ing Ruston every again. Last Edited By: alabamadog 06/04/09 11:58 AM. Edited 1 time.

Posts: 3804 06/04/09 01:08 PM	The new name would be, of course, Mississippi State. That way we would become more dominant and all the old UM fans would either have to start pulling for us or USM. Oh and I would schedule USM every year. Oh, I am sure that I would probably need Bill Gates money and still actually care about sports like I do know. Something tells me that if I became a billionaire I would probably become very "latitudely" challenged. Anything above about 25 N would be out of my range.

Posts: 622 06/04/09 01:34 PM	I would walk into a meeting with Byrne and Cohen, checkbook in hand, and tell them to have it drawn up any way they would like with all amenities they could come up with. Fast track it and send all invoices to me. From design stage to final completion. That would be cool as hell.
