Would require him to stop post padding pay attention

 

Re: Mark Dantonio, new Mich. St. coach (?)

Good for Dantonio if this is true. Also, good for Michigan State for not waiting until Cincy's bowl game to break the news.

Re: Mark Dantonio, new Mich. St. coach (?)

Slappy/Starman, does this guy have MSU ties? How long of a leash does the Perles gang give him?

 

Re: Mark Dantonio, new Mich. St. coach (?)

was an msu assistant from '95-2000

 

Re: Mark Dantonio, new Mich. St. coach (?)

Yes, he has ties to a Perles heir (Saban) so he'll get a longer leash. But the Perles Gang is mercurial... so we'll see

 

Re: Mark Dantonio, new Mich. St. coach (?)

OK, every time I've seen this over the last day or two, I always catch myself thinking: Why would the Suns coach do something like this? Isn't that a huge step backward going from an NBA Finals contender to MSU? And then I realize it's not the same guy ... or the same sport.

Carry on.
