If Mike Locksley did, I guess Mel Tucker could too.

I'd think Lance Leipold and Chris Klieman get phone calls from Michigan State. Sherrone Moore and Elko make sense, but I think they need a very steady hand and I don't know that Moore would want MSU as a first time HC job, and the PR might not be what Elko would want either just yet.

That would be Josh Gattis and Xavier Worthy's mom.
Thanks, I was thinking that with all of their sex abuse scandals recently that they might want to stay away from him. But I had him mixed up.

Do you think that’s what Native Americans look like today?

Didn't know there was a "Look" per se. But I did know that Jim Thorpe was a very good college football player who happened to be Native American. Can't name many Native Americans playing CFB.

Sherrone Moore is who you go after if you need to replace MSU. He has done really well at UM. Back to back Joe Moore Award Winner....He would be a great fit for MSU job.
I’ve seen some other names floated about as well:
Jason Candle at Toledo
the guy at Eastern Michigan
Leipold at Kansas
Campbell at ISU

Sparty should go hire Sean Lewis from Colorado. What they'll probably do is hire Matt Campbell.

If Kansas is serious they need to pay Liepold enough to make sure he doesn’t take any other jobs unless it’s life changing (Blue Blood major money). Lock him down for life, that guy looks like he could change that program’s entire forecast kind of like a Beamer for VT

Chris Creighton has seriously done a terrific job in Ypsilanti. He took over a pathetic football program in 2014, he's been a fun local story. They hadn't had a winning season since '95 or a bowl game since '87, and now their basically a perennial bowl contender. They finally won their first bowl game last year in like 30 years.
Idk if he's ready for a leap from EMU to MSU, but he'd probably be worth interviewing. Then again, it's not like MSU is a top tier destination right about now, what with Nassar and now Tucker, let alone a pretty bare cupboard as far as talent is concerned.

TBH I would have guessed it to be a little higher.

It depends on the year. It’s a disproportionate amount relative to the program’s leadership. We have one the greatest new HC out there. Lots to be thankful for.
Why u asking us. Thought you were our bamer insider no?

Um no:
Some Pacific Islanders are from islands colonized and controlled by the United States, so they are native to land that is now called America, but not Native American.

That won’t happen. Neither MSU’ Board or you are that stupid. He will be an interim HC or advisor akin to Tom Osborn at Nebraska.

The interim advisor thing was testing the waters and the fanbase is hugely energized by him coming back

Oh, I have little doubt Saban would take him in. I was questioning whether it would help and if anyone would hire him afterwards.

Of all the silly things I've seen on this board.
Drunk is now going to be the arbiter of who is and isn't Native American. My dude is gonna unironically bust out blood quantum arguments here in a second if yall press this convo.

Maybe he rehabilitates himself as a DC first but if guys like Freese and Petrino can get jobs, Tucker will be just fine in the long run.

Booger- if you know of more Native Americans playing CFB, great. I was simply responding to the discussion about how there is only about 10% African-American coaches yet 60 to 65% African-American players and some knucklehead brought up Asians and Native Americans. Thank you for your great contribution.

Let’s see were Coach O goes after working through his severance. Coach Tucker will get some money.
