Dantonio is a miracle worker… I can’t believe the difference a season has made.

Solid first season, let’s see what happens now.

For cryin’ out loud, after one season of mediocrity? Morrisey, take off the rose-colored glasses! “solid first season”? 7-6?????? Rob, what would constitute terrible … 6-7?

It’s funny how everyone expects everything to change over nite when we have a little success. Its fans like Hnsing that will start the complaining as soon as we aren’t winning 7 games. The guy has worked a miracle in my opinion. Anyone who can take John L’s crap and turn it into something is a miracle worker.

Its jarhead thinking like yours that makes these posts worth reading. I’m rolling! I’ll bet you think the “halls” of Montezuma and Tripoli were miracles too!

Last year state went 7-6, was in 5 of the 6 games (yes we were only down a TD to O-state in Columbus, but we got 14 flukie points and that shouldn’t have been that close). But shockingly Dantonio was closer then people realize from being 12-1 with none of his own players. This year state is going to win 8 or 9 games, and keep the ball rolling. And for those of you who don’t keep up with recruiting…state is currently ranked 7th in the country in next years recruiting 7th…ahead of…Georgia, Clemson, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Auburn, Alabama, Miami, Florida, Penn St., WVU, Wisconsin and more. See here for yourself: http://footballrecruiting.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=834586 Now, I’m not saying state is, or will be better then those schools, but there is a chance, and if you don’t consider OU, Miami, Florida, etc. to have been “better” in every way then MSU in football the last 20years, your head is under a rock. The fact is state has sucked in football for a long long long time but Dantonio is changing that. Winning the big ten conference, and the Rose Bowl, and finishing with 11 or 12 wins in a 13 game campaign is certainly within reach down the road. I would personally call that a miracle for state football. Wed, 13 Aug 2008 12:45:24 -0400 http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/20837
