Who do y'all think would get appointed to Cochran's seat if he resigns?

The article mentions Lt. Gov Tate Reeves, Rep. Gregg Harper and SoS Delbert Hosemann as possibilities, with Chris McDaniel as a last-resort option. Reeves is clearly looking at a 2019 governor run and Hosemann is old so I think Harper probably has the best shot, but MS Reps are clearly wary of a repeat of Luther Strange.

If he resigns, his successor won't be Harper.

Maybe he's prepping a governor run while Reeves takes the Senate seat?
