All things Spartans

[Irish#1]

Sparty will be a little less green this year.

So uhh. Spartans are gonna pay $500 million to the victims.

You mean the taxpayers are going to pay victims? Because that money sure as shit isn't coming from the athletic department budget.

Thank God for insurance!

Or their endowment. MSU going to raise tuition though.

Reschke is back

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

Are there any plans/talks to get these guys back on the schedule in the near future? I know as of now, there aren't any games on the schedule.

I've always enjoyed this rivalry and I personally like this game. We have a lot of history playing Sparty, have a "trophy", etc. It just seems to make some sense to make this game an annual priority.

I'm a big fan of winning all our rivalry trophies and then stop playing them so our trophy case looks full for recruits

RB Austin Andrews will transfer

LJ Scott going pro with a year's eligibility left

Will he drive himself to the combine??? Inquiring minds want to know.

Megabus goes to Indy. He should look into that.

Yikes.

Dantonio steps down

 

[IrishLion]

STAY AWAY FROM LUKE FICKELL, SPARTY

Dantonio steps down

He had quite a run for a few years there. I think he is one of the better coaches of this era.

 

[IrishLax]

Wow, coaching carousel about to start spinning again.

 

[koonja]

I think PJ Fleck would kill it there but I think he's on a trajectory that puts him in a better job.

 

[irishff1014]

I wonder why so late?

Chilli Tech dies that Lea might live.

 

[NDIrish88]

Hoping this kid transfers . . . to ND.

That's pretty big news though not surprising.

STAY AWAY FROM TOM REES, SPARTY

FIFY

 

[zelezo vlk]

Real talk, who could/should Sparty get? If I'm them I'd at least consider calling Lea. Also Jim Leonhard from Wiscy. Fickell, as Lion mentioned.

Edit: Oh yeah Narduzzi.

You might be in trouble on this one...

Would Fickell want that job?

 

[KizerWilhelm]

Jesus, at this point it might be a lateral move.

 

[Henges24]

Fickell would be a great hire, IMO.

Sounds like Fickell is the perceived front runner.

 

[NDohio]

Would Fickell want that job?

Big Ten...basically double the salary...chance to beat Harbaugh every year...from the midwest...

Not sure, but he would be a good fit. I don't see the OSU job opening anytime soon.

 

[Irish#1]

Don't be surprised if they promote from within.
