Michigan State Spartans (official thread)

And of course the juggalos are all demanding that UC pay Fickell "one beeelion dollars" in his extension despite having a broke ass athletic department that relies on subsidies for half its budget. I particularly like the one who says that the President and trustees won't do it because "they're eggheads who don't know how to run a business."

Kind of shocked they haven’t given Matt Campbell a look. Maybe they have and I just wasn’t paying attention.

Either way I love when second tier programs are brought crashing back down to Earth.

RE: Reasonable Extension for Fickell
Use PI Fleck’s deal Cunningham was involved with at Minnesota as a guidepost and work back a bit for not being in the P5

Does this juggalo not understand that Minny doesn't just have P5 money; they have B1G money. UC has juggalo money.

As I understand it, Campbell told them no last week. He may have been first, actually.

Who? Getting turned down by guys nobody has ever heard of?

This is just order being restored. This program was so eff'd up for decades that there is a verb for fucking up in their honor. A decade and a half of relative competence, and even a five year period of excellence requires a stiff bounce back to the norm. Sparty is now back to "spartying" with a vengeance.

Just try and pry Brent off those boys.

OK! MSU is now officially a hot mess. Good luck with that stain, Sparty.

Yeesh. Guy at Penn State looks at the problems in your athletic department and says “no thanks.”

That’s not good.

Slapping sounds must be arrhythmic at Sparty ...

Please God, if you exist, let "Clemsoning" become a thing again too.

At least they aren't blaming their failures on a conspiracy by the other members of the B1G to keep them down.

Where's Joey Freshwater coaching these days? Is he available?

I dont think East Lansing can compete with The Grove.

I had a thought the other day wondering if Fickell falls under Tressel's coaching tree or Urban's. Now I know it's neither

I spent at least a minute confused about Fickell and Maryland.
I still dont know what theyre trying to stay.
Step 1 is all the NCAA needs... though they have been castrated compared to 9 years ago.

Theyve become the Browns

Well at least he knows!

True.

If that what it takes to get them to leave you alone ...

Private Klinger comes to mind.
