Comment on Michigan State recruiting more mobile quarterbacks by MSUDersh

MSUDersh — Sat, 31 Mar 2012 15:12:27 +0000

Good stuff, LBB! I haven’t really seen anything else on MSU going after these mobile-type QBs. Even though Coachs D & Roushar use a pro-style offense, and the QBs here under their reign (Hoyer, Cousins, now Max) have all been more traditional, that doesn’t mean we can’t bring in & have success with ones who are fleet of feet, too.

With that in mind, do you think thwre would be any type of fundamental change in the offensive philosophy should a mobile QB come in, or would our QBs still be expected to be pass first, and run only when everybody downfield is covered?

Observations on the implications of Kentucky winning it all. Mostly exaggeration (hopefully) but it is a sobering thought that Calipari will probably win and his system will be considered a successful system.

But hopefully UK chokes again.

Good update view! Whatever you shared here about depth chart, injuries and position battles seems to me pretty outstanding. Thanks mate.

Hello,

I was wondering how I could get a copy of that picture. I happen to be standing behind the I in Izzo and want to frame the picture. Is there any way I could purchase it?
Thanks so much!

Good site, lots of great content. I’m always happy to frequent and support Spartan blogs.

But I have to say, I’m not so sure about that name! Hopefully, your motto is, “Big Brother dies first.”

Comment on And then there were two: MSU makes easy work of Nebraska by Danny Y

Of course, Wisconsin could just beat OSU rendering all my research on tiebreakers moot and meaning that all we need to do is win.

So, as I understand it

If MSU beats OSU, regardless of what happens in our game against Indiana, we win the B1G outright.
If MSU beats Indiana and not OSU, and if OSU wins out, we would split the B1G. I think we would win the tiebreaker (we would be 2-0 v. Indiana compared to their 1-1, which would be where the tiebreaker goes to I think), but I’m not confident that I’m right on that.

So, in other words, let’s just win out, win the B1G tourney as well and then win the NCAA tourney.

Comment on Spartans get verbal commitment from running back Shelton by mjwilson22

Good catch, thanks. I was getting Powell and Jaylon Smith confused last night, too.

Shelton is a stud. I am relieved he followed through — at this point. Kid is a burner and will be a nice talent to have in EL.
