Dantonio shuffles staff, Keeps everyone.

Staten to TE coach
Bollman to OL coach
Warner to QB Coach
Salem to OC
Treadwell to WR coach
Samuel to DB coach with Haynes.

Basically, Dantonio is going to run the program into the ground before he retires. Offense will be putrid next season. 6-6 will be the new norm going forward. MSU is finished as a serious Big Ten contender.

We had the 117th ranked O and 126th scoring 0, all the geniuses that produced those results are back.
 
Total fucking joke. I won’t go to a single game next year. Love Dantonio and all the success we’ve had, but time to put him to pasture. This is Mickey Mouse, reshuffling deck chairs on the Titanic bullshit. In what galaxy is a bottom 5 offense in America acceptable? Name another profession anywhere in life where below 5th percentile wouldnt result in someone’s termination. Ship up or ship the hell out.

It was a fun run but it’s over. I hope we enjoy being on the same level as Indiana or Maryland going forward. Preorder your Quick Lane Bowl tickets now!
 
Do you think he's just too lazy to even try to hire someone else? Is it just not possible to get quality coaches to come to MSU? Hard to believe that's the case given the staff Swinney was able to put together and do at a middle of the pack ACC team.

So he's either too lazy or he's at best, a good coach, definitely not a great one - hmmm, where have I heard that before?

How long before Sbee chimes in ignoring the offensive rankings in 17 and 16 and chastising nonbelievers for not also ignoring the fact that we've underperformed for three years (in 2017 we were 91st in total offense and 96th in scoring offense for 2016 we ranked 116th and 125th) and saying it's all due to the injuries this year, the staff is fine and deserves the benefit of the doubt? Remember, we went to the Rose Bowl 5 years ago and scored a ton of points on Baylor the year after.

Way to B rabbit that one.

You can cherry pick the last 3 years if you like, 2016 was an abomination all around, then a solid bounce back year, and 2018. I'm indifferent about these moves, I'm not doing cartwheels over keeping everyone but I'm also not saying the sky is falling. It's hard to dominate every category, I'd be happy if we have the top defense in the big ten and an offense in the top half and maybe only use one punter for the year then we have a good shot at winning the conference

Sadly I think the record in 2017 was a mirage. It was a solid bounce back record wise but the offense was still well below where it needs to be to compete for anything of note. We were 96th in scoring and 91st in avg yards/game. The record of 20-18 the past 3 years is probably an accurate reflection of our program. Not 3-9 bad, not 10-3 good. Right in the middle, which is unacceptable given how good the defense has been the last couple of years.

i have no idea what B rabbiting is but nice try at making 3 straight years of shit on offense look like cherry picking - its 3 years straight of horrible offensive output. And 2017 was NOT a bounce back year, we ranked 91st in total offense and 96th in scoring offense, well into the bottom 1/3rd so not only were they not in the top half of offenses in the conference, they were near the bottom of all offenses in college football. And in case you havent heard, they've been near the bottom FOR THREE YEARS!

I'd still say it's more personnel than coaching, no QB in 2016, injured QB in 2018. Typically fans credit the players when things go well and blame the coaches when they don't.
