Michigan State Football

Leavitt, who looked primed to become the Spartans' new starting quarterback in 2024, is leaving MSU because of a grudge he's held for a long time against Jonathan Smith.

He's the guaranteed-to-be-an-absolute-home-run hire, but the people in charge at MSU are too worried about getting negative media attention, which is all MSU ever gets from the Detroit media anyway.

Anyone and everyone who's "reporting" on Michigan State's coaching search at this point has no clue what they're talking about.

There are ten MSU players who must could still redshirt this season but must decide before Saturday's game at Iowa. If they play one more snap, they're ineligible for a redshirt season in 2023, meaning they'll have to sit out if they transfer.

This list of potential candidates is rooted in reality with a mix of up-and-comers whose stock is rising and veteran (but not yet old) guys who have bonafide experience as head coaches and program builders.

On Monday, Michigan State University Athletic Director Alan Haller announced he had filed a letter to Head Coach Mel Tucker expressing the intent to fire him for cause.

Barnett is exactly what MSU needs as an interim head coach in the wake of the Mel Tucker scandal. But he simply isn't qualified for the permanent job — not in the least.

Tucker's incomprehensible self-destruction has cast MSU into chaos and uncertainty. But it also likely spared Spartan football far worse ruin.

MSU is virtually certain to terminate Mel Tucker for cause once his Title IX investigation has ended. So who will replace him atop the Spartan football program? We've put together a list of 18 potential candidates.

A prominent rape survivor and activist alleges that Tucker made sexual comments and masturbated while on a phone call with her. Tucker had invited her to speak to MSU football players about the perils of sexual violence and how they could be part of the solution.
