spartan sports networKFor the 12th consecutive season, the Spartan Sports Network (Holt, Mich.) will produce and distribute Michigan State football broadcasts. The Network, which is the largest and most listened to in the state, is powered by seven 50,000-watt stations and two 100,000-watt stations for 100 percent coverage of the state of Michigan. For the fifth consecutive year, the Spartan Sports Network was the most honored in the state, garnering 10 Michigan Association of Broadcasters’ “Broadcast Excellence Awards.” Network flagship stations are WJIM Radio (AM 1240) and WMMQ (FM 94.9) in Lansing and WJR Radio (AM 760) in Detroit.

George Blaha has anchored Spartan football broadcasts as play-by-play voice for over three decades. A 2008 inductee into the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame, Blaha is a Michigan broadcast icon, recently completing his 35th season as radio and television play-by-play voice of the National Basketball Association’s Detroit Pistons. The longest tenured play-by-play broadcaster in the state, he has been the recipient of many prestigious awards, including Michigan Sports Broadcaster of the Year (1998 and 2007) from the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association. In 2002, he also was presented the Ty Tyson Award

for “Excellence in Sports Broadcasting” by the Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association.

Born in Detroit, Blaha was raised in Marshalltown, Iowa, and Grayling, Mich. He and his father attended Michigan State’s first-ever Big Ten football game, played at Iowa in 1953. Blaha earned a bachelor’s degree in economics from Notre Dame in 1966 and later received his MBA from Michigan.

Jim Miller, a three-year starter at quarterback for Coach George Perles at Michigan State from 1991-93, enters his sixth season as color analyst for the Spartan Sports Network. Miller still ranks among MSU’s all-time leaders in pass attempts (seventh at 746), pass completions (fourth at 467), completion percentage (second at .629) and passing yards (seventh at 5,037). As a senior, Miller shared team MVP honors after completing 215-of-336 passes (.640) for 2,269 yards and nine touchdowns. A three-time Academic All-Big Ten selection from 1990-92, he earned his bachelor’s degree in supply chain management

from Michigan State in 2002. Prior to signing a National Letter of Intent to attend Michigan State in February 1989, Miller earned All-America and all-state honors at Kettering High School in Waterford, Mich.

A sixth-round selection by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 1994 National Football League Draft, Miller threw for 6,387 yards and 36 TDs during his nine-year pro career (Pittsburgh, 1995-96; Atlanta, 1997; Chicago, 1998-2002; New England, 2004). He earned 27 career starts at quarterback, compiling a 15-11 record as a starter in Chicago. In five seasons with the Bears, Miller recorded three 300-yard passing games. In his first career start against Minnesota on Nov. 14, 1999, he completed 34-of-48 throws for 422 yards and three scores. His 422 passing yards represent the fourth-highest single-game total in Chicago history. In 2001, Miller led the Bears’ charge to the playoffs, posting an 11-2 record as a starter during the regular season while establishing career highs in pass attempts (395), pass completions (228), passing yards (2,299) and TDs (13). In 2002, he threw for 1,944 yards while matching his career best with 13 TD tosses.

Additional on-air responsibilities for Miller include providing NFL analysis for Sirius Satellite Radio and serving as a studio analyst for Comcast SportsNet Chicago’s “Bears Post Game Live.” Miller is the co-founder of GoBigRecruiting.com and owns JMK Custom Homes in Clarkston, Mich.

Former Michigan State All-Big Ten center Jason Strayhorn begins his sixth season as the sideline reporter for the Spartan Sports Network. A native of Indianapolis, Ind., Strayhorn started 24 consecutive games at center for Coach Nick Saban in 1997-98. As a senior, he earned first-team All-Big Ten honors from the coaches and media after grading out as a winner (better than 70 percent) in 11 of the 12 games in 1998. The former team captain also received the Up Front Award as the team’s outstanding interior lineman in 1998, consistently posting the unit’s top grade for pass protection by not allowing a sack the entire season. Strayhorn turned in one of the best performances of

his career in MSU’s 28-24 victory over top-ranked Ohio State in Columbus in 1998. He was selected Spartan Offensive Player of the Week after grading out 80 percent overall against the Buckeyes, including 89 percent in his pass-blocking assignments.

Strayhorn, who received his bachelor’s degree in business management from Michigan State in 1998, owns a real estate investment company.

Will Tieman returns for his 14th year on the Spartan football broadcast team, serving as the broadcast host. During home games at Spartan Stadium, Tieman broadcasts from the network’s on-field set, located in the north end zone. His other football-related activities include: hosting a daily statewide series, called “In the Huddle with Mark Dantonio” and handling play-by-play duties for the national broadcast of the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl. For the 21st year, Tieman serves as host for the syndicated series “This Week in College Football and Basketball.” Three times Tieman has been honored with the “Best

Network Play-by-Play” award by the Michigan Association of Broadcasters. He was recognized in 2008 and 2010 for his work as voice of the Michigan State basketball team and in 2007 for his presentation of the Motor City Bowl. Tieman currently serves as the president of the Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association.

big ten networKcompany Profile

Headquartered in Chicago, BTN is the first internationally distributed television network dedicated to covering one of America’s premier collegiate conferences.

With more than 350 live sports events, and virtually all of them in high definition, BTN is the ultimate destination for Big Ten fans and alumni across the country. The network is on the air 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

where to find us

The network is available to an estimated 80 million households, through agreements with more than 300 cable, satellite and telco affiliates in all 50 states and Canada. To get the channel number specific to your area and provider, visit www.bigtennetwork.com/channelfinder.

btN Programming

BTN is on the air 24 hours per day, 365 days a year. The network annually televises nearly 400 live events and streams an additional 300+ events. Each year’s schedule is comprised of approximately 40-45 football games, 105 regular season men’s basketball games, Big Ten Men’s Basketball Tournament games, 55 women’s basketball games, Big Ten Women’s Basketball Tournament games, hundreds of additional Olympic sports events and dozens of Big Ten championship events.

Every BTN football game telecast is surrounded by Big Ten Football Saturday, the network’s pre-game, halftime and post-game show hosted by Dave Revsine and analysts Gerry DiNardo and Howard Griffith.

The fall programming lineup will include Big Ten Icons, Tailgate 48, Behind the Schemes, Big Ten’s Best, Big Ten Breakdown, Big Ten Football & Beyond, The Big Ten’s Greatest Games and much more.

In addition to live events, the network also airs coaches’ shows and classic games. Each campus also has the opportunity to produce original, campus programming highlighting various aspects of campus life and the qualities that make each university unique.

Some of BTN’s streamed events are also televised on delay as part of the network’s Student U initiative. Big Ten students on each campus produce and announce these events, offering a unique opportunity to gain real-world television experience.

why the Network was created

BTN was created to provide the conference with more national exposure for Big Ten sports while enhancing its existing television agreements with its other television partners.

The conference wanted to control more fully the advertising environment in which its events were aired (the network accepts no alcohol or gambling advertising), dramatically increase exposure for women’s sports and other NCAA sports that had not previously been widely televised and improve distribution for football and men’s basketball games that were previously available only on a local or regional basis.

Considered to be one of the most successful launches in cable television history, BTN became the first network in cable or satellite television history to reach 30 million subscribers within its first 30 days on the air. BTN is a joint venture between subsidiaries of the Big Ten Conference and Fox Cable Networks.

btN’s impact

The network has provided an additional revenue source at a time of continued decreases in state support. The network has also provided significant and additional exposure for all Big Ten men’s and women’s sports, some of which previously received little or no television exposure. It also helps with recruiting in all sports as the ability for parents to watch their children compete from anywhere across the country is a major selling point.

hONOriNg legeNds. buildiNg leaders.

The mission of the Big Ten Conference has always been to excel athletically without compromising the priority our member institutions assign to their academic standards and to their commitment to student academic success. We seek to celebrate the many accomplishments of Big Ten student-athletes while continuously reinforcing each of our member institutions’ high academic standards. Striking that important balance between academics and athletics is integral to the Big Ten’s identity, and that philosophy led to the genesis of the new football division names. Both names link directly to the Big Ten mission.

A respectful acknowledgement of the 18 Heisman Trophy winners and 215 College Football Hall of Famers that have graced our fields and sidelines for the past 115 years.

A hopeful and aspirational acknowledgment that we believe the college athletics experience helps to develop the characteristics that Big Ten student-athletes will need to become leaders for the rest of their lives - in their homes, jobs and in their communities.

2011 outlooKUnder fifth-year head coach Mark Dantonio, Michigan State has solidified itself as a perennial Top 25 program and one of the top teams in the Big Ten Conference. The Spartans are coming off the winningest season in program history after going 11-2 in 2010 while claiming their first Big Ten Championship in 20 years. MSU has appeared in four consecutive bowl games, including two on New Year’s Day, and finished No. 14 in both of the major polls last season.This season, the Spartans are stocked with talent and depth at nearly every position as they prepare to defend their Big Ten title and attempt to reach the Rose Bowl for the first time since defeating USC in 1988. Michigan State welcomes back 15 starters – including eight who earned All-Big Ten recognition last season – and a total of 47 letterwinners overall. In addition, several rising players who redshirted in 2010 and stood out during spring practice will get to vie for key spots on both offense and defense.Dantonio, who has won more games (33) than any Spartan coach in his first four seasons, takes a position-by-position look at the 2011 Spartans.

Quarterbacks

Fifth-year senior Kirk Cousins, who will likely become just the second three-time captain in Michigan State football history, returns for his third season as the starting quarterback.In his two seasons as the starter, Cousins (6-3, 205) has posted impressive numbers. He enters his final year wearing the Green and White as the most accurate passer in school history, completing 64 percent of his attempts, and also owns with the best pass efficiency rating of any Spartan quarterback (146.7 rating).Cousins already ranks among MSU’s career leaders in passing yards (fourth; 5,815 yards), total offense (fourth; 5,727 yards), pass completions (sixth; 456), touchdown passes (sixth; 41) and pass attempts (eighth; 709). As a junior, Cousins was named a semifinalist for the Davey O’Brien Award (nation’s top quarterback), thanks to one of the best statistical seasons in Spartan history. His 66.9 completion percentage, 226 pass completions, 2,825 passing yards and 20 touchdown passes all ranked among the top five in the MSU single-season record book.But statistics are just one side of the story when looking at Cousins. His leadership skills are invaluable, from mentoring the younger players, to uniting the team during offseason workouts, to his decision-making on the field. He truly exemplifies what it means to be a leader. “There’s no substitute for experience, especially at the quarterback position,” Dantonio said. “Over the last four years, Kirk Cousins has grown and matured into becoming a premier quarterback. Kirk is a great student of the game and really understands the importance of paying close attention to detail when it comes to game preparation. He watches a ton of video each week and applies what he sees and learns in those video sessions to the practice field. As a result, Kirk makes great decisions with the football on game days. He will make all of the throws. In addition, Kirk has a great presence in the huddle

and truly knows his teammates and how to energize them. With all that said, the bottom line is: Kirk is a proven winner.”Backing up Cousins for the second-straight year will be sophomore Andrew Maxwell (6-3, 208). Maxwell appeared in five games as a red-shirt freshman in 2010, completing 44 percent of his passes for 123 yards in limited action. Maxwell continued his development throughout spring practice, including one scrimmage in which he went 21-for-27 passing for 253 yards and two TDs.“Andrew played very, very well in the spring – he showed great control of the offense,” Dantonio said. “He’s got confidence, a live arm, and the size to be an extremely successful quarterback. He’s been in the system for two years and he’s really grown, plus he has game experience. I feel that Andrew would start at a lot of places.”Junior Peter Badovinac (6-2, 215) and true freshman Conner Cook (6-4, 200), who participated in the Elite 11 Quarterback camp during the summer, provide depth at quarterback.Dantonio also mentioned the possibility that former quarterback Keith Nichol – now a wide receiver – could see some snaps depending on the situation. “Keith Nichol needs to be a guy who can play some as a third quarterback in an emergency situation,” said Dantonio. “He is a great wide receiver, but he also has to take some reps at quarterback along the way in case we need him for any reason.”

ruNNiNg backs/fullbacks

Michigan State features one of the best running back trios in the nation in junior Edwin Baker (5-9, 210), junior Larry Caper (5-11, 223) and sophomore Le’Veon Bell (6-2, 237).A first-team All-Big Ten selection by the media as a sophomore in 2010, Baker had a breakthrough season after playing in just eight games as a true freshman. The Highland Park, Mich., product rushed for a team-best 1,201 yards (92.4 yards per game), which ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 30th in the nation, and became just the sixth sophomore at MSU to pass the 1,000-yard rushing mark. Baker also led the team with 13 rushing touchdowns.

“Heading into his third year, Edwin has a mature outlook on things,” Dantonio said. “He’s a very explosive player and can take it the distance. He always has gotten himself ready to play, and I think that’s a big part of his game.”After leading the team in rushing as a freshman in 2009, Caper entered last season as one of the starters at running back, but a hand injury kept him out of the first two games. With Baker and Bell collecting most of the carries, Caper saw a majority of his action in third-down situations, primarily due to his receiving and pass-blocking skills. Caper led all Spartan running backs with 12 receptions for 133 yards, and he also rushed for 144 yards.As a true freshman, Bell had an outstanding first half of the season with 549 yards and eight TDs in his first six games, including a season-best 141-yard effort with three touchdowns in his Spartan debut against Western Michigan. Baker’s emergence as the lead back in the second half of the year, however, slowed Bell’s production, but he was still named to the All-Big Ten Freshman Team by both ESPN.com and Rivals.com after finishing with 605 rushing yards (46.5 ypg.). This season, the coaching staff is looking for consistent numbers from Bell throughout the entire season. “I think you have to run the football,” Dantonio said, regarding MSU’s rushing philosophy. “I don’t think you can be a football team that’s going to line up and throw the ball every time, at least not for us here. You have to look at guys like Edwin Baker, Larry Caper and Le’Veon Bell. Those are guys that can make plays on the offensive side; we have to get those guys involved in space and allow them to go to work.”In addition to the three experienced backs, Nick Hill (5-7, 180, R-Fr.) and Jeremy Langford (5-11, 205, R-Fr.), who both redshirted last season, also will compete for playing time in the backfield.At fullback, a converted defensive player will once again enter preseason camp in the starting role. Fifth-year senior Todd Anderson (6-2, 260), who earned his first letter in 2010 as a defensive end, moved to fullback during spring practice and showed promising signs at his new position. “Todd found his home at fullback during the spring,”

Kirk Cousins, who has compiled a 16-9 record in 25 career starts, already ranks as MSU’s all-time leader in completion percentage (.643) and passing efficiency rating (146.7).

All-Big Ten running back Edwin Baker rushed for 1,201 yards and 13 touchdowns in 2010, including five 100-yard rushing games.

2011 outlooKDantonio said. “We were encouraged by what we saw from him and look for him to improve even more during preseason camp.”

Niko Palazeti (6-1, 250, R-Fr.), Adam Setterbo (6-3, 245, Sr.-5) and Jeff Bobek (6-1, 245, Jr.) will provide depth at fullback.

wide receivers

Perhaps the most experienced unit on the team, Michigan State returns four players who have started games at wide receiver, including three seniors: B.J. Cunningham (6-2, 215), Keshawn Martin (5-11, 189) and Keith Nichol (6-2, 220). Cunningham and Nichol will be the featured receivers at split end. A fifth-year senior, Cunningham will likely end his career atop the Michigan State record book for receptions, as he needs just 10 more to pass Matt Trannon to become the school’s all-time leader in that category. Cunningham enters 2011 with 139 catches, currently third in MSU history, to go along with 1,780 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns. Although he missed the Capital One Bowl with a broken foot, Cunningham still led the team with a career-high nine TD receptions, which tied for fourth most in an MSU season. Cunningham participated in spring practice and is 100 percent healthy at the onset of preseason camp.Nichol played his first full season as a receiver in 2010. A converted quarterback, Nichol split time with Cousins in 2009 before making the move to wideout during bowl practice of that season out of personnel necessity. One of the most athletic players on the team, Nichol flourished in his new position, and after a strong showing during spring practice, he quickly moved into a starting role for the 2010 season. Nichol went on to record 22 catches for 262 yards (11.9 avg.), while also proving to be a threat with his arm in specific situations, completing 4-for-7 passes for 62 yards and two TDs. His physicality also has paid dividends as one of his greatest strengths has proven to be his run-blocking ability.Martin is a versatile option and a scoring threat every time he touches the ball, accounting for touchdowns in five different ways in his career (rushing, receiving, passing, punt return, kick return). He was third on the team in both receiving (32 catches for 394 yards) and rushing (157 yards; 8.7 avg.) in 2010 and has led the team in all-purpose yards the last two seasons.Bennie Fowler (6-1, 215, So.) emerged as a multi-dimensional playmaker during the second half of last season following an Achilles injury that sidelined Martin for two games. Fowler made an immediate contribution in Martin’s absence, scoring a touchdown on a reverse and catching a key reception on a fake punt during MSU’s 17-point comeback win at Northwestern. He finished the season with 573 all-purpose yards, including 175 receiving yards on 14 catches.In addition to the players with starting experience, talented red-shirt freshmen Keith Mumphery (6-0, 202) and Tony Lippett (6-2, 189) will each see playing time following their impressive performances during spring practice. Lippett also could see action on the defense as a cornerback.

Brad Sonntag (5-8, 176) and Chris D. Rucker (5-9, 178), who have both earned letters, also return for their final season as fifth-year seniors.“We have more depth than in the past at wide receiver,” Dantonio said. “Our receivers could be a very special group, especially when you add Keith Mumphery and Tony Lippett to the mix with the three seniors along with Bennie Fowler. Keith Nichol looks more comfortable out there; B.J. has always been consistent, and Keshawn is a true playmaker.”

OffeNsive liNe

One of the challenges for the Spartans will be filling the holes left by three starters on the offensive line, including second-team All-Big Ten left tackle D.J. Young, center John Stipek and right tackle J’Micheal Deane. The good news is that there appears to be plenty of promising candidates ready for expanded roles this season. The anchor of the line will be fifth-year senior Joel Foreman (6-4, 315), who will return for his fourth year as the starting left guard. Foreman was an honorable mention All-Big-Ten selection last season and has started 36 career games, including 22 straight. Although he sat out in the spring to rest his wrist and ankle, Foreman provided leadership to the young line during the offseason and spring practice.John Deyo (6-6, 300, Jr.) took reps with the first team all spring and will support Foreman at left guard, along with Nate Klatt (6-4, 290, So.) and Shawn Kamm (6-7, 310, R-Fr.). Junior Chris McDonald (6-5, 300) holds down the spot at right guard after starting 12 games last season. In his first year as a starter in 2010, McDonald did not allow a sack during the regular season. “Chris was our most consistent offensive lineman during the spring,” Dantonio said. “He did a tremendous job in his first year as a starter, and now he’s become one of the leaders of that group. We’re expecting another great year from him on the right side of the line.”An inspirational player to the entire team, Arthur Ray Jr. (6-3, 299) returned to the football field in the spring for the first time in four years following a battle with cancer and will be a reserve at right guard.

The remaining three starting positions will be fought for during preseason camp.At left tackle, Dan France (6-6, 315, So.) made quite an impression during spring practice while competing at the position for just a few weeks. A converted defensive lineman who earned a letter in 2010, France played tight end in high school, but never on the offensive line. His athleticism and upside at the position has made him the leading candidate to start prior to the season. Battling France at left tackle will be fifth-year senior Jared McGaha, a two-year letterman who has seen action in 23 career games and can play at either guard or tackle. McGaha (6-6, 298) appeared in nine games last season, including starts at right guard against Minnesota and left tackle against Purdue. Red-shirt freshman Michael Dennis (6-7, 307) provides depth behind France and McGaha.The race for center was crowded at the beginning of spring ball, but two contenders separated themselves following the 15 practices: Travis Jackson (6-3, 275, R-Fr.) and Blake Treadwell (6-3, 295, Jr.). After redshirting in the fall and playing on the scout team, Jackson saw his role change drastically in the spring, taking snaps with the first and second teams. “Travis had a tremendous winter conditioning program and played well in the spring,” Dantonio remarked. “He’s very athletic, intelligent, and tough.” Treadwell changed roles as well, lining up on the offensive side of the ball after spending his first two seasons on the defensive line; however, Treadwell has experience on the offensive line, as he was one of the most touted centers in the nation coming out of high school. He also can play guard if necessary and is listed behind McDonald on the preseason depth chart at right guard. “Blake was an outstanding offensive lineman coming out of high school,” Dantonio said. “We need to make sure we have guys that are athletic enough to play center and offensive guard, so we wanted to provide that opportunity for him to get in that mix. I think Blake will bring a tremendous amount of toughness and effort to our offensive line.”Ethan Ruhland (6-5, 290, Jr.) will also get snaps at center in preseason camp.Red-shirt freshman Skyler Burkland (6-7, 305) is full of potential and appears ready to push for a starting position at right tackle after an excellent spring season. “Skyler had an outstanding freshman year, and he’s everything you want as an offensive tackle,” Dantonio said. “He’s very active with great feet; he’s got toughness, and he’s extremely athletic. We’re going to give him the opportunity right from the outset, and we’ll build it from there.”Zach Hueter (6-6, 310, Jr.), Henry Conway (6-6, 318, So.) and junior college transfer Fou Fonoti (6-4, 300, Jr. ) also will have a chance to compete at right tackle during preseason camp.“We’re rebuilding three positions on the offensive line, but I think we have a nucleus of some outstanding players,” Dantonio said. “We have depth, which is always so crucial, and we’re bringing in some outstanding players as well. We’ve got some guys in there that show the ability to play.”

B.J. Cunningham enters the 2011 season with 139 career receptions for 1,780 yards and 13 touchdowns.

tight eNds

The Spartans will once again feature one of the best tight end units in the nation, as four players who have earned letters at the position return in 2011.Although the leading tight end from the past three seasons, Charlie Gantt, was lost due to graduation, fifth-year senior Brian Linthicum (6-5, 245) is more than capable of taking over that role this fall. Named to the preseason watch list for the Mackey Award, Linthicum has 49 catches for 572 yards (11.7 avg.) and six TDs in 38 collegiate games. After playing his freshman year at Clemson, Linthicum has played in 25 games at MSU, including 12 starts, and has 38 receptions for 496 yards (13.1 avg.).Also returning for his third season in the playing rotation is fellow fifth-year senior Garrett Celek (6-5, 252), who has battled shoulder injuries the past two years and was limited to just two games of action in 2010. Celek has proven to be a solid run blocker and a viable pass threat when healthy, with 11 catches for 100 yards (9.1 avg.) and two TDs in his career.After sitting out last season, Dion Sims (6-5, 276, So.) is back and ready to make an impact in 2011. A Big Ten All-Freshman selection in 2009, Sims led the Spartan tight ends that season with three touchdowns to go along with 11 catches for 133 yards.Sophomore Derek Hoebing (6-7, 270), who earned his first letter in 2010 after playing primarily on special teams, also could see action in the rotation this season. Andrew Gleichert (6-5, 250, R-Fr.) and Drew Stevens (6-4, 242, Jr.) will provide depth at the position.

defeNsive liNe

The Spartans have the potential for one of their best defensive lines in years as three starters and eight lettermen return in 2011.Leading the way up front is junior defensive tackle Jerel Worthy (6-3, 310), who has been named to preseason watch lists for the Bednarik, Lombardi and Nagurski Awards as well as Outland Trophy. An honorable mention All-Big Ten selection as a sophomore by both the coaches and media, Worthy ranked first among Spartan defensive linemen in

The Spartans do return Chris Norman (6-1, 227, Jr.), who started 10 games last year at Star (weak side) linebacker and finished sixth on the team with 59 tackles (4.9 avg.). With 11 career starts, the two-year letterman is the team’s most experienced linebacker in a unit that does not have a senior and features only one other upperclassmen in Steve Gardiner. After ranking second on the team in 2010 with 13 special teams tackles, Gardiner (6-1, 222, Jr.) is looking to have a larger role on the defense this fall. He enters preseason camp slated to be Norman’s back-up at Star while also possibly having a chance to play at Mike (middle) linebacker. Danny Folino (5-9, 195, So.) will provide depth behind Norman and Gardiner.The heir apparent to Jones in the middle is sophomore Max Bullough (6-3, 245). In limited action as a true freshman, Bullough still managed to record 23 tackles and was named to the ESPN.com Big Ten All-Freshman Team. During an impressive spring season, Bullough cemented his role as the starting Mike linebacker and become more of a vocal leader on the field for the defense. “I don’t think Greg Jones is a guy that you can easily replace, but Max has been playing very well,” Dantonio said. “He has a great command of our defense and has awareness out there on the field. Max has a great future ahead of him.”Sophomore TyQuan Hammock (6-0, 230) will also see time in the rotation at middle linebacker. Hammock had an excellent offseason in terms of conditioning and returned to his natural position of linebacker in the spring after spending the 2010 campaign at fullback. He led the Spartans with 16 tackles on special teams a year ago and tied for the lead in tackles at the spring game with eight.At Sam (strong side) linebacker, Denicos Allen (5-10, 220, So.) appears ready to take over a starting role after seeing significant playing time as red-shirt freshman in 2010. Allen saw action in all 13 games and compiled 18 tackles, and also made one of the plays of the year with a blocked punt against Purdue in the fourth quarter that helped spark MSU’s 15-point comeback victory. “Denicos has always been a great tackler, and he had a good year on special teams as a red-shirt

2010 with 40 tackles, including eight for losses (42 yards) and a team-best four sacks (27 yards). In two seasons, Worthy has collected 17 tackles for loss and 8.5 sacks.Backing up Worthy will be fifth-year senior Johnathan Strayhorn, a former defensive end who moved to the inside during spring practice. Strayhorn (6-0, 272) ranked second only to Worthy last season with 3.5 sacks while recording a career-high 27 tackles. Both Kevin Pickelman (6-4, 288, Sr.-5) and Anthony Rashad White (6-2, 316, Jr.) will see significant time in the rotation at nose tackle. Pickelman started seven games last season and responded with a career-best 31 tackles. He sat out spring practice for precautionary reasons with a neck injury, but he’s healthy as he begins his final season at MSU. White was one of the surprises of spring practice, emerging as a legitimate force on the defensive line. After transferring from Fort Scott Community College and then getting a season of Big Ten football under his belt in 2010, he showed significant improvement in the spring, spending a majority of his time with the first team.“Rashad became a dominant player in the spring,” Dantonio said. “He now needs to transition that effort into the season.”Blake Pacheco (6-1, 264, Sr.-5), Micajah Reynolds (6-5, 320, So.), Jordan Sanders (6-1, 288, R-Fr.) and Dave Curtis (6-2, 250, Jr.) will add depth on the interior. Tyler Hoover (6-7, 290), in his first year as a full-time starter at defensive end, tallied a career-high 36 tackles. During a highly productive two-game stretch against Illinois and Northwestern, he compiled 18 stops and three sacks; he was named the Big Ten Co-Defensive Player of the Week following his nine-tackle, two-sack performance against the Wildcats. Opposite of Hoover will be a combination of William Gholston (6-7, 280) and Denzel Drone (6-2, 262), two rising sophomores that could have breakthrough seasons in 2011. Before a shoulder injury caused him to miss the final three games of the year, Gholston had 13 tackles and five quarterback hurries. Drone started four contests and also finished his first season with 13 stops.“At 6-7, 280-290 pounds, both Tyler Hoover and William Gholston can be very good defensive ends,” Dantonio said. “Tyler has been in the program for four years, so he has a good understanding of our system. William has a lot of talent, and he really benefitted greatly by playing last season as a true freshman.”Marcus Rush (6-2, 250, R-Fr.) and Corey Freeman (6-2, 250, Jr.) will see time in the rotation behind Hoover, while Taylor Calero (6-3, 245, R-Fr.) also adds depth at the position.

liNebackers

MSU’s linebacker corps will have a new look in 2011 following the departure of two of the top linebackers in school history: two-time All-American Greg Jones and Eric Gordon. Jones and Gordon combined for 796 tackles and 95 starts in their careers, staggering numbers that will have to be replaced; however, MSU has stockpiled talent at the position the past few years and is in good shape entering the season.

Jerel Worthy led the Spartan defensive linemen with 40 tackles in 2010, including a team-best four sacks (27 yards.)

In his first year as a starter, Chris Norman ranked sixth on the team with 59 tackles.

freshman,” Dantonio said. “He played in a lot of different situations. Denicos had a great spring and is in excellent condition, so he’ll be a factor out there.”Sophomores Jeremy Gainer (6-1, 228) and Kyler Elsworth (6-1, 215) along with red-shirt freshman Ty Hamilton (6-0, 230) also could see time in the rotation at Sam linebacker.

defeNsive backs

Michigan State was one of just two schools in the Big Ten last season to have all four starters in the secondary earn all-conference recognition. Two of those players return this fall, as Johnny Adams (5-11, 175, Jr.) will line up at field corner and Trenton Robinson (5-10, 192, Sr.) at free safety.Robinson, a second-team All-Big Ten selection by the coaches in 2010, blossomed his junior season, ranking among the Big Ten leaders in passes defended (tied for second with 12), pass break-ups (tied for third with 8) and interceptions (tied for fourth with 4). He also was fourth on the team with a career-high 76 tackles. With the departure of several key players from last year’s defense, Robinson will be looked to as a leader in his senior season. “Trenton Robinson is a solid player who provides great leadership in the secondary,” Dantonio said. “He has grown significantly every year he’s been in our program. In order for us to be successful on defense, we need him to be a leader and a playmaker.”Adams started every game last season and earned second-team All-Big Ten accolades by the coaches. He showed promise as a true freshman in 2008 but was granted a medical redshirt after he missed 10 games in 2009. The Akron, Ohio, native bounced back in a big way as he ranked sixth in the league in both interceptions (3) and pass break-ups (7), while also compiling 50 tackles. This spring, he elevated his game even further and was cited by the coaching staff as one of the standouts on the defense. A number of younger players will also get a chance to make their mark in the secondary this season.

At boundary corner, sophomore Darqueze Dennard (5-11, 185) is projected to be the starter heading into preseason camp. Dennard appeared in six games as a true freshman last year before missing the final five games due to a knee injury. In his two starts against Northwestern and Illinois, he combined for nine tackles, including two tackles for loss, while also forcing and recovering a fumble. In addition, Mitchell White (5-11, 180, Jr.), a two-year letterwinner, will be in the rotation at boundary corner.One player that could see time on both sides of the ball is Tony Lippett, a red-shirt freshman who has impressed the coaches with his versality and athleticism. Lippett (6-2, 189) split his time in spring practice with the offense and defense, and enters camp listed on the depth chart at both flanker and field corner.“Tony is a guy that can make plays for us,” Dantonio said. “I think we have to play him more than 15 to 20 snaps, and with our depth at wide receiver, you have to look at him on defense. He got enough reps at both positions in the spring, so we’ll just have to make those decisions as a coaching staff during preseason camp.”Dana Dixon (6-2, 170, So.) and Arjen Colquhoun (6-0, 187, Fr.) add depth at cornerback.Isaiah Lewis (5-10, 195, So.) has the inside track at strong safety following a solid showing during the spring. Lewis appeared in all 13 games as a true freshman and made 15 tackles to earn a spot on the Rivals.com Big Ten All-Freshman Team.Jairus Jones (6-1, 209, So.) was in line to be in the rotation this fall at strong safety, but an Achilles injury toward the end of spring practice sidelined him for the spring game and summer conditioning. There is still a possibility Jones could see the field this fall.A pair of red-shirt freshmen, Mylan Hicks (5-11, 191) and Kurtis Drummond (6-1, 196), will support Robinson and Lewis at safety, respectively.

sPecial teams

Michigan State has consistently fielded one of the top special teams units in the Big Ten during Dantonio’s tenure, and last year was no exception. The Spartans featured first-team All-Big Ten honorees at both placekicker (Dan Conroy) and punter (Aaron Bates), while punt returner Keshawn Martin was rated the best in the conference by several media outlets.In his first year as the starting placekicker last season, Conroy (5-10, 190, Jr.) had to replace Brett Swenson, MSU’s all-time leader in scoring, field goals and extra points. The Spartans didn’t miss a beat with Conroy, as he was a sensational 14-for-15 in field-goal attempts to lead the conference and rank fifth nationally with a .993 field-goal percentage. Conroy, who also led the team in scoring with 87 points, set a school record by hitting his first 13 field-goal attempts of the season.Kevin Muma (6-0, 189, So.) also returns this season after taking over the kickoff duties for the first time in 2010. Muma, who averaged 64.5 yards on kickoffs and had 13 touchbacks last season, also will serve as the back-up placekicker, behind Conroy.A starter for four years, Bates was more than just a quality punter for MSU – he was a clutch player who

was a threat on fake attempts, which included his game-winning touchdown pass in overtime against Notre Dame last season, and he was also a leader, becoming the first punter in school history to be named a captain. Red-shirt freshman Mike Sadler (6-0, 182), a lefty, will look to replace Bates and continue MSU’s long-standing tradition at punter. The Spartans have had five punters in the NFL in the past 30 years. “When we recruited Mike Sadler, he was one of the top punters in the country,” Dantonio said. “I thought he showed a tremendous amount of maturity by coming here and then sitting out a year. He watched Aaron Bates and really grew. He’ll do an outstanding job. He’s got a big-time leg, good command of the snap, and the ball spins a little differently coming off his left foot.”One of the most overlooked aspects of special teams is the long snapper. Following the loss of four-year starter Alex Shackleton, Steve Moore (6-3, 223, R-So.) enters his first year in the role and will look to maintain the consistency of the unit.Martin, who will anchor the return team, already ranks eighth in MSU history in kick return yards (1,070) and 12th in punt return yards (385). He became the first Spartan to lead the Big Ten in punt returns last season with his 14.2-yard average, which ranked 11th nationally. Martin returned a punt 74 yards for a touchdown in the win over Wisconsin and ran back a kickoff 93 yards for a score in 2009 against Minnesota.Bennie Fowler also will get a chance to return kickoffs. Fowler became MSU’s top kick returner at the end of last season following Martin’s Achilles injury, and finished second on the team with 336 kick return yards on 15 attempts (22.4 avg.).

Overall

The goal remains the same every year in East Lansing: the Rose Bowl. In just four years, Dantonio and his staff have built a solid foundation that continues to improve each season, and that work paid off with a Big Ten Championship in 2010. Now, the Spartans are looking to stay on top. With a key group of veterans returning from last year’s championship team along with a talented mix of newcomers, the program is in position to make a run for another Big Ten title during the 2011 season.“We need to continue raising our level of play,” Dantonio said. “When you look at it, every program has the things that they weigh and can look at as positives, and every program has things they need to continue to improve on. I think it needs to get to the point where we play against anybody, any place, and compete. We’re very, very close to being able to do that. “I think the process has always been here and that we will always challenge ourselves to be the best at what we’re doing, whether that’s academically, athletically or off the field. We want to try to do our very best – that’s how we always set it up around here.”

Trenton Robinson, who heads into his third season as the starting free safety, recorded career highs in tackles (76), interceptions (4) and pass break-ups (8) in 2010.

In just four seasons, Mark Dantonio has restored the pride and tradition of Spartan football.

A Zanesville, Ohio, native with Midwest ties, Dantonio has 31 years of collegiate coaching experience and coached in his 15th bowl game as the Spartans faced Alabama in the 2011 Capital One Bowl. It marked Dantonio’s second New Year’s Day game as a head coach, as he guided MSU to a 2009 appearance in the Capital One Bowl against Georgia.

Dantonio, who led Michigan State to a school-record 11 wins in 2010 and a share of its first Big Ten Championship since 1990, was named the Dave McClain Big Ten Coach of the Year, as selected by the conference’s media panel. A finalist for the Paul “Bear” Bryant, Eddie Robinson and Liberty Mutual National

Coach of the Year Awards, Dantonio helped manage the third-biggest turnaround among NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision teams during the regular season, as the Spartans improved from 6-7 in 2009 to 11-1 in 2010. He was also named the AFCA (American Football Coaches Association) Region 3 Coach of the Year, and earned National Coach of the Year honors from CBSSports.com, Scout.com and Rivals.com.

Thanks to its 28-22 victory at Penn State in the regular-season finale, Michigan State recorded its first win in State College since 1965 – the year before Joe Paterno took over as Penn State’s head coach – and finished in a three-way tie with Wisconsin and Ohio State for the 2010 Big Ten Championship. With successive wins over Minnesota, Purdue and Penn State to close out the regular season, the Spartans posted a perfect 3-0 record in November for the first time since 1999. MSU also dealt Wisconsin its only loss of the 2010 regular season, 34-24, in the Big Ten opener. The Spartans finished the season ranked No. 14 in both The Associated Press and USA TODAY/Coaches’ Polls, giving MSU its highest finish in the final polls since 1999. It also marked MSU’s second finish in the Top 25 in the past three years (No. 24 in 2008).

A total of 16 Spartans received All-Big Ten recognition on the first team, second team or honorable mention, including senior linebacker Greg Jones, senior punter Aaron Bates, sophomore running back Edwin Baker and sophomore placekicker Dan Conroy, who each earned All-Big Ten first-team honors from the media. One of the top linebackers in school history, Jones was named a first-team consensus All-American for the second straight season, becoming only the third Spartan to accomplish the feat. He also became just the seventh player in program history to receive first-team All-Big Ten honors three times. Jones (New York Giants) and cornerback Chris L. Rucker (Indianapolis Colts) were selected in the sixth round of the 2011 National Football League Draft.

With appearances in the 2007 Champs Sports Bowl, 2009 Capital One Bowl, 2010 Alamo Bowl and 2011 Capital One Bowl, Dantonio is the first coach in Michigan State history to earn a postseason bowl bid in each of his first four seasons. He has 33 victories in his first four seasons at MSU, which are the most by any Spartan head coach in his first four years (Chester Brewer ranks second, with 30 wins from 1903-06).

From his first day on the job, Dantonio has pledged to support student-athletes as they pursue excellence, both in the classroom and on the playing field. In his first four seasons, 82 percent

MARK DANTONIO HEAD COACH FIFTH SEASON

(61 of 74) of his Michigan State players who have completed their eligibility have earned their undergraduate degrees. In addition, 43 Spartans have earned Academic All-Big Ten honors, including 2009 Academic All-American Blair White.

Riding the momentum generated by his first four seasons, Dantonio and his coaching staff have put together three-straight recruiting classes in 2009-11 that analysts rank among the nation’s Top 25.

Led by Jones and one of the most explosive offenses in the Big Ten, the Spartans earned their third consecutive bowl bid in 2009.

A consensus first-team All-American, Jones became the first Spartan to win Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year accolades after recording 154 tackles, finishing first in the conference and third nationally in 2009. He also led the team and ranked among the national leaders in tackles for loss (14 for 69 yards) and sacks (9 for 53 yards). Jones was rated the No. 1 linebacker in the nation by CollegeFootballNews.com and earned the Linebacker Trophy (Linebacker of the Year) by the College Football Performance Awards.

In addition, defensive tackle Jerel Worthy was named a Freshman All-American, marking the third-straight year a Spartan landed on a Freshman All-America Team, and cornerback Jeremy Ware was chosen by the Oakland Raiders in the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft.

Offensively, Michigan State featured the No. 2 passing attack in the Big Ten, averaging nearly 270 yards per game. The Spartans also finished second in the league in scoring (29.7 points per game) and third in total offense (406.2 ypg.).

MSU established a school record with 28 touchdown passes in 2009, and the 3,502 passing yards ranked second in the school record book. Sophomore quarterback Kirk Cousins, an honorable mention All-Big Ten pick by the media, finished the regular season ranked among the Top 10 Spartan single-season leaders in passing yards (2,680 – fourth), pass completions (198 – sixth) and touchdown passes (19 – tied for seventh).

The Spartan passing game was built around wide receiver Blair White, who was a first-team All-Big Ten selection by the coaches while recording career highs in receptions (70), TD catches (9) and receiving yards (990), all of which rank among MSU’s Top 10 single-season leaders.

MSU’s special teams featured the school’s all-time leading kicker in Brett Swenson, who scored 377 career points. A first-team All-Big Ten selection and Lou Groza Award semifinalist, Swenson also became MSU’s career leader in field goals (71 made) and extra points (164 made) during the 2009 season. He closed out his career ranked among the Big Ten’s all-time leaders in kick scoring (second), field goals (tied for third), total points (fourth) and extra points (sixth).

One of 15 semifinalists for the George Munger Coach of the Year Award, Dantonio had a breakthrough season as a head coach in 2008. Under his leadership, the Spartans went 9-3 in the regular season and compiled a 6-2 record in the Big Ten, the best league mark for the program since 1999. Michigan State defeated five bowl-bound teams, with victories over Florida Atlantic, Notre Dame, Iowa, Northwestern and Wisconsin. The Spartans, who made their first New Year’s Day Bowl appearance in nine seasons, finished the season ranked No. 24 in both the Associated Press and USA Today Polls.

Three Michigan State players were named first-team All-Big Ten by the league’s head coaches: senior running back Javon Ringer, senior safety Otis Wiley and Jones. A total of 15 Spartans received All-Big Ten recognition on the first team, second team or honorable mention.

Ringer became MSU’s first consensus All-American since 2004, earning first-team accolades from Walter Camp and the Associated Press. The Doak Walker Award finalist had one of the finest seasons in Spartan history, scoring a school-record 22 touchdowns and rushing for 1,637 yards, which ranked second in the school record books. Ringer was selected by the Tennessee Titans in the fifth round of the 2009 NFL Draft.

In his first season as head coach at Michigan State, Dantonio sparked a three-game turnaround as the Spartans finished the 2007 regular season with a 7-5 record, securing the program’s first bowl bid in four years with a berth against Boston College in the Champs Sports Bowl in Orlando, Fla. Dantonio became just the third first-year coach in Michigan State history to earn a postseason bowl bid, joining Saban (1995 Independence Bowl vs. LSU) and John L. Smith (2003 Alamo Bowl vs. Nebraska).

Michigan State (7-6 overall) produced seven victories despite playing one of the nation’s most demanding schedules, as the Spartans’ 2007 opponents had a combined record of 75-57 (.568) during the regular season. The Spartans went 4-3 in games played against bowl-bound teams in 2007. Michigan State lost six

games by a combined total of 31 points, including two in overtime (Northwestern and Iowa). All six games were decided by seven points or less.

Michigan State finished the year strong, winning its final two games of the regular season for the first time since 1999 with victories at Purdue and over Penn State, both bowl-bound teams. Dantonio became the first coach in Spartan history to begin his initial season 4-0, as Michigan State opened the 2007 campaign with wins over UAB, Bowling Green, Pittsburgh and Notre Dame. With the 31-14 victory over the Irish,

the Spartans became the first opponent to win six-straight games in the 77-year history of Notre Dame Stadium.

In 2007, Michigan State featured one of the Big Ten’s most prolific offensive attacks. The Spartans ranked second in the conference in scoring offense (33.1 points per game), third in rushing offense (198.2 yards per game) and fourth in total offense (416.8 ypg.). Michigan State also was listed among the NCAA’s top 30 in rushing offense (No. 25) and scoring offense (No. 29). The Spartans scored a school single-season record 430 points and produced top 10 single-season totals in six other offensive categories.

Michigan State also displayed dramatic improvement on the defensive side of the football in 2007. The Spartans ranked fourth in the Big Ten and No. 30 nationally in rushing defense, allowing just 125.9 ypg. Michigan State held four opponents under 50 yards rushing (UAB, Bowling Green, Indiana and Boston College). After finishing eighth in the Big Ten and No. 88 nationally in total defense in 2006, the Spartans improved to fourth in the league and No. 32 in the NCAA, allowing 345.5 ypg.

Three Spartans from the 2007 team were selected in the 2008 NFL Draft: wide receiver Devin Thomas (Washington Red¬skins, second round), tight end Kellen Davis (Chicago Bears, fifth round) and defensive end Ervin Baldwin (Chicago Bears, seventh round).

Dantonio, who served as head coach at Cincinnati for three seasons prior to his return to East Lansing, became Michigan State University’s 24th head football coach on Nov. 27, 2006. He previously spent six years as an assistant coach at Michigan State from 1995-2000.

The 55-year old Dantonio established himself as one of the nation’s up-and-coming coaches during his three-year tenure at Cincinnati, where he compiled an 18-17 overall record and led the program in its transition from Conference USA to the BIG EAST Conference.

In 2006, Dantonio led the Bearcats to a 7-5 overall record and a 4-3 BIG EAST mark, making Cincinnati bowl eligible for the second time in three years. Dantonio accomplished the feat against the second-toughest schedule in the country, as UC’s opponents compiled a 69-42 record. His Bearcats upset then-No. 7 Rutgers, 30-11, on Nov. 18, handing the Scarlet Knights their first loss of the season and marking the highest-ranked opponent ever defeated by UC.

Highly respected as one of the top defensive coaches in the country, Dantonio’s Bearcats finished the 2006 regular season ranked among the NCAA leaders in six statistical categories: No. 21 in tackles for loss (6.8 per game), No. 23 in pass efficiency defense (109.3 rating), No. 27 in rushing defense (107.5 ypg.), No. 31 in total defense (304.3 ypg.), No. 34 in scoring defense (19.3 ppg.) and No. 34 in sacks (2.4 per game). UC held seven of its 12 regular-season opponents to less than 100 yards rushing. In the win over Rutgers, Cincinnati held the nation’s No. 15 rushing offense to a season-low 50 yards on the ground, and limited the NCAA’s No. 3 rusher, Ray Rice, to a season-low 54 yards.

Six Bearcats earned All-BIG EAST honors in 2006, including three first-team selections: defensive tackle Terrill Byrd, linebacker Kevin McCullough and free safety Dominic Ross. Three UC players received second-team all-conference honors, including offensive guard Trevor Canfield, tight end Brent Celek and cornerback Mike Mickens. Celek, who set UC career records for receptions, receiving yards and TDs by a tight end, was taken by the Philadelphia Eagles in the fifth round of the 2007 NFL Draft.

In 2005, Dantonio brought together one of the nation’s youngest teams, with the Bearcats starting as many as five first-year freshmen on defense and posted a competitive 4-7 record in the program’s first season in the BIG EAST.

In 2004, he became the first head coach in 23 years to direct a team to a winning season in his first year at UC. Dantonio also became only the second head coach in Cincinnati history (along with Sid Gillman) to take the Bearcats to a bowl game in his first season. The Bearcats’ went 7-5 in 2004, including a 5-3 mark in Conference USA to finish second in the league standings, and defeated Marshall (32-

14) in the Fort Worth Bowl. Cincinnati led C-USA and ranked No. 26 in the NCAA in pass defense, allowing 194.2 yards per game. The Bearcats also ranked second in C-USA in total defense (341.3 ypg.) and third in both scoring defense (26.7 ppg.) and pass efficiency defense (121.5). Offensively, quarterback Gino Guidugli ranked 15th in the country in passing efficiency (146.5) and directed the Bearcats to the 30th-ranked offense in the nation (405.6 ypg). Three players were chosen in the 2005 NFL Draft (defensive end Trent Cole, linebacker Tyjuan Hagler and cornerback Daven Holly).

In his three seasons at Cincinnati, 21 of Dantonio’s players earned All-BIG EAST honors and 40 received academic all-conference recognition. In back-to-back years (2006-07), Cincinnati’s program was presented the American Football Coaches Association Academic Achievement Award for attaining a graduation rate of at least 70 percent for its student-athletes.

Prior to his appointment at Cincinnati, Dantonio served as the defensive coordinator under Jim Tressel at Ohio State for three seasons, where his defensive unit helped the Buckeyes to a combined record of 32-6.

In 2003, Ohio State’s defense was the second toughest against the run, allowing 62.3 yards per game, and was ranked No. 10 in total defense (296.9 ypg.) and No. 16 in scoring defense (17.6 ppg.). Those efforts helped the Buckeyes post an 11-2 record and finish No. 4 in the final polls.

Dantonio assembled the defense which led Ohio State to the 2002 National Championship, as the Buckeyes ranked second in the NCAA in scoring defense (13.1 ppg) and third in rushing defense (77.7 ypg.). Six Buckeye defenders were named first-team All-Big Ten during his tenure and 13 were drafted by the pros, including a pair of first-round selections in 2004 (defensive end Will Smith and cornerback Chris Gamble).

Dantonio is quite familiar with East Lansing, as he spent six years (1995-2000) as Michigan State’s secondary coach, including five seasons under Nick Saban and one under Bobby Williams. He was promoted to associate head coach in 2000. During his six-year tenure as an assistant, the Spartans compiled a 39-30-1 record.

Under his supervision, the Spartan secondary ranked among the NCAA leaders in pass efficiency defense three of his last four years, finishing No. 10 (101.6) in 1998, No. 16 (103.9) in 1997 and No. 22 (104.5) in 2000. In his last season as secondary coach, the Spartans only allowed 164.1 yards a game through the air, ranking seventh in the country in 2000.

Dantonio contributed to Michigan State’s successful 1999 season, during which the Spartans went 10-2, won the Florida Citrus Bowl, led the Big Ten in total defense and ranked No. 7 in the final polls. He tutored cornerback Amp Campbell, who earned third-team All-America honors from the Associated Press.

Dantonio came to Michigan State following four seasons under Glen Mason at Kansas (1991-94) where he coached the defensive secondary. In 1992, the Jayhawks produced an 8-4 record and defeated BYU, 23-20, in the Aloha Bowl.

Dantonio previously spent five years at Youngstown State under Tressel, helping the Penguins to three trips to the NCAA I-AA playoffs. While serving as defensive coordinator in 1990, Youngstown State posted a perfect 11-0 regular-season record and ranked second nationally.

His coaching credits also including stops at Akron (defensive secondary, 1985), Ohio State (graduate assistant, 1983-84), Butler (Kan.) Junior College (defensive coordinator, 1982), Purdue (graduate assistant, 1981) and Ohio University (graduate assistant, 1980). During his stint as a graduate assistant under Earle Bruce at Ohio State, the Buckeyes played in the 1983 Fiesta and 1984 Rose Bowls.

Dantonio earned three letters as a defensive back for Coach Jim Carlen at South Carolina (1976-78). He earned a bachelor’s degree in education from South Carolina in 1979. Dantonio later earned a master’s degree in education from Ohio U. in 1980.

He picked up all-state and all-league honors as a prep football player at Zanesville (Ohio) High School and was selected to play in the Ohio North-South All-Star Game.

In their first two years as honorary co-chairs, Dantonio and his wife Becky have helped raise $2.4 million for the Children’s Miracle Network at Sparrow Children’s Center.

Pat Narduzzi is in his fifth season as defensive coordinator at Michigan State.

Narduzzi’s unit in 2010 had its best showing since his arrival in East Lansing. Michigan State concluded the regular season ranked among the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision leaders in rushing defense (No. 21 allowing 121.9 ypg.), scoring defense (No. 26 allowing 20.1 ppg.), total defense (No. 31 allowing 337.8 ypg.) and pass efficiency defense (No. 33 with a 117.0 rating). In addition, MSU allowed only one 100-yard rusher all season (Game 11 by Purdue’s Keith Carlos).

The biggest difference in MSU’s turnaround was takeaways – after forcing just 14 in 2009, MSU totaled 24 in 2010. The Spartans recorded 17 interceptions, its highest total since 2004, which ranked third in the Big Ten and tied for 23rd in the nation.

For the fifth time under Narduzzi, a defensive player was named to the All-Big Ten first team, as senior linebacker Greg Jones became just the seventh player in program history to earn first-team honors three times. Jones, who led the team with 106 tackles, also earned consensus first-team All-America accolades for the second straight year, making him just the third Spartan to accomplish that feat (George Webster and Bubba Smith, 1965-66).

In addition to Jones, six more Spartan defenders received All-Big Ten recognition on either the second team or honorable mention in 2010. Senior linebacker Eric Gordon was a second-team pick by both the coaches and media, while the entire secondary (cornerbacks Johnny Adams and Chris L. Rucker; safeties Marcus Hyde and Trenton Robinson) was honored. Sophomore defensive tackle Jerel Worthy, who led the team with four sacks, received honorable mention.

Narduzzi was named the National Coordinator of the Week by Rivals.com after the Spartans held Michigan to a season-low 162 rushing yards as Michigan State handed the Wolverines their first loss of the season, 34-17, on Oct. 9.

In 2009, Jones became the first Spartan to be named Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year after leading the conference and ranking third nationally with 154 tackles. Jones was rated the No. 1 linebacker in the nation by CollegeFootballNews.com and earned the Linebacker Trophy (Linebacker of the Year) by the College Football Performance Awards.

In addition to Jones, Worthy was named a Freshman All-American after ranking second on the team in tackles for loss (9 for 34 yards) and sacks (4.5 for 23 yards). He became the second player to earn Freshman All-America honors under Narduzzi at MSU (Jones in 2007).

Michigan State’s strength in 2009 was stopping the run, as the Spartans ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 24th nationally by allowing just 113.2 rushing yards a game. MSU limited their opponents to fewer than 100 rushing yards in six games during the season. The Spartans also put pressure on the quarterback, ranking third in the conference and 17th (tied) in the country with 35 sacks.

In 2008, MSU placed two players – Jones and safety Otis Wiley – on the All-Big Ten first team, marking the first time since 2000 that the Spartans have had two defensive first-team selections in the same season. Jones led the Big Ten during conference play in tackles, while Wiley anchored the Spartan secondary and ranked among the league leaders in interceptions (4) and passes defended (11).

In 2007, the Spartans recorded 40 sacks, 24 more than it produced the entire 2006 season. In fact, the 40 sacks were the third-highest total in MSU single-season history and exceeded the Spartans’ combined sack totals for the previous two seasons (32). The Spartans ranked fourth in the Big Ten (tied) and No. 14 in the NCAA, averaging 3.08 sacks per game. In addition, MSU ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 30th nationally in rushing defense (125.8 ypg.).

Dan Roushar enters his fifth year on the Michigan State coaching staff and his first as offensive coordinator. He also will coach the tight ends.

A 27-year coaching veteran, this marks the fifth time that Roushar will be an offensive coordinator in his career. He most recently served as offensive coordinator at Illinois during the 2004 season, and has also directed offenses at Northern Illinois (1998-2002), Ball State (1994) and Butler (1989-92). In his last four seasons coaching the offensive line at Michigan State, Roushar’s linemen earned All-Big Ten recognition on eight occasions.

Michigan State’s improved rushing attack in 2010 was fueled by a solid offensive line that featured the same core of starters throughout the entire season. Although the unit began the year with three new starters and a position switch from right tackle to left tackle for D.J. Young, the Spartans established their running identity

early in the season, rushing for more than 200 yards in five of the first six games.

Young’s move proved to be a success, as he garnered second-team All-Big Ten honors from the coaches, while junior left guard Joel Foreman was a third-team All-America selection by Phil Steele. Sophomore Edwin Baker was the main beneficiary of the Spartans’ offensive line play, as the first-team All-Big Ten pick by the media ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 30th in the NCAA FBS averaging 92.4 rushing yards per game.

Two Spartan offensive linemen earned All-Big Ten recognition in 2009 under Roushar’s direction, as center Joel Nitchman was named second-team All-Big Ten by the media and Foreman garnered honorable mention accolades by the coaches and media. For the second straight season, Roushar’s unit was one of the most effective in the Big Ten protecting the quarterback, as the Spartans gave up only 14 sacks, the fewest amount of any team in the conference.

The Spartans featured the nation’s fourth-leading rusher in Javon Ringer in 2008. In addition, the unit allowed just 24 sacks all season, ranking fourth in the Big Ten. Four of MSU’s five starters were awarded postseason honors, including second-team All-Big Ten selections Roland Martin (right guard) and Jesse Miller (right tackle). Nitchman earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors while Foreman was named Freshman All-American.

Michigan State was one of the top rushing teams in the nation during the 2007 regular season, thanks in large part to the offensive line. Roushar had to juggle his lineup several times, using eight different starting combinations, but he led his unit to be one of the most productive in the Big Ten as the Spartans ranked fourth in the conference and No. 25 in the NCAA in rushing with 198.2 ypg. He tutored left tackle Pete Clifford, who went on to earn second-team All-Big Ten honors.

Roushar arrived in East Lansing after serving as offensive line coach under Coach Dantonio at Cincinnati for two seasons (2005-06).

Prior to joining the Cincinnati coaching staff, he worked with the running backs at Illinois for two seasons (2003-04), adding the duties of offensive coordinator in 2004.

Roushar spent six years as offensive line coach at Northern Illinois (1997-2002), where he also served as the offensive coordinator for the final five seasons. During his tenure at NIU, the Huskies earned a share of back-to-back Mid-American Conference West Division titles in 2001 and 2002. In his six years in DeKalb, NIU also produced four 1,000-yard rushers, including Michael Turner who finished second in the NCAA in rushing in 2002 while averaging 159.6 yards per game. In 2000, the Huskies ranked among the national leaders in rushing offense (No. 12 at 228.1 ypg.), total offense (No. 19 at 427.8 ypg.) and scoring offense (No. 12 at 37.2 points per game). The 427.8 total yards per game marked the second-best single-season average in NIU history and the school’s best figure since 1963.

Harlon Barnett, a four-year letterwinner at Michigan State (1986-89) as a defensive back who was named a captain as a senior, is in his fifth season as the Spartans’ secondary coach. Barnett returned to East Lansing with seven years of professional playing experience and four seasons of coaching experience under his belt.

Barnett oversaw perhaps the most improved secondary in the nation in 2010. After ranking near the bottom of the conference in several pass defense categories in 2009, the Spartans bounced back to rank among the national leaders in pass break-ups (16th with 52), passes defended (17th with 69) and interceptions (tied for 23rd with 17). Michigan State finished third in the Big Ten in pass efficiency defense (121.3 rating), third in interceptions and fifth in passing defense (165.5 yards

allowed per game).

Michigan State was one of just two schools in the conference (Iowa) to have all four of its starters in the defensive backfield earn postseason recognition from the Big Ten. Cornerbacks Johnny Adams and Chris L. Rucker, along with free safety Trenton Robinson, made the All-Big Ten second team as selected by the coaches, while strong safety Marcus Hyde was named to the second team by the media. Rucker was selected by the Indianapolis Colts in the sixth round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

The unit combined for 17 interceptions, most at MSU since 2004, after collecting just six in 2009. The interceptions helped fuel MSU’s positive turnover margin, as the Spartans leaped from 94th in the nation in 2009 to 31st in that department last season.

In 2009, senior cornerback Jeremy Ware earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors after recording a career-high 52 tackles and five pass break-ups while starting every game. Ware went on to be selected in the seventh round of the 2010 NFL Draft by Oakland.

Barnett’s secondary unit displayed depth and tenacity during the 2008 season. A rash of injuries forced Barnett to utilize nine different starting lineups, as four players made their first career starts. Week after week, a new player stepped up and produced when given an opportunity. Leading the way was Otis Wiley, a first-team All-Big Ten selection and Jim Thorpe Award finalist who ranked among the league leaders in interceptions (4) and passes defended (11).

In his first season at MSU, Barnett led a secondary that ranked fourth in the Big Ten in pass defense. Under his direction, former walk-on turned team captain Travis Key earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors in his first year as a starter, as Key ranked third on the team in tackles (69) and second in pass break-ups (6) and interceptions (2) in 2007.

A native of Cincinnati, Barnett was a three-year starter for Coach George Perles at Michigan State. He was a member of the 1987 Big Ten and 1988 Rose Bowl championship team that went 9-2-1 overall and finished eighth in the final polls. Barnett, who also played in the 1989 Gator Bowl and the 1989 Aloha Bowl during his time as a Spartan player, earned first-team All-America recognition by The Sporting News as a senior in 1989. He was a primary reason that the Green and White ranked No. 1 in the Big Ten and No. 11 nationally in both rushing defense (95.4 ypg.) and total defense (280.5 ypg.). He compiled 73 stops, high among Spartan defensive backs, along with three interceptions and three fumble recoveries. He finished his career with 154 tackles, six interceptions and 13 pass break-ups.

Following his impressive career at Michigan State, Barnett was taken in the fourth round of the 1990 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns, where he played for three seasons (1990-92). He spent two seasons at New England (1993-94) and two more with Minnesota (1995-96).

Now in his fifth year as the defensive line coach at Michigan State, Ted Gill has continued his career-long trend of developing productive and impactful players.

Gill molded a young line in 2010 that featured only one senior to help the Spartans rank among the national leaders in several categories during the regular season, including scoring defense (No. 26 allowing 20.1 points per game) and total defense (No. 31 allowing 337.8 yards per game). The line was instrumental in stopping the run, as the Spartans ranked third in the Big Ten and 21st nationally in the regular season by giving up just 121.9 rushing ypg. In addition, MSU allowed only one 100-yard rusher all season (Game 11 by Purdue’s Keith Carlos).

Sophomore defensive tackle Jerel Worthy earned All-Big Ten honorable mention honors after leading the line with 40 tackles

and four sacks. A Freshman All-American in 2009, Worthy also ranked third on the team with eight tackles for loss last season.

Senior defensive end Colin Neely had a career year in his final season under Gill, ranking first on the team with 10 tackles for loss while compiling a career-high 34 tackles. In addition, junior Kevin Pickelman and sophomore Tyler Hoover showed significant improvement, as both players recorded career highs in tackles.

Spartan defensive linemen have garnered All-Big Ten recognition six times during Gill’s tenure, including Jonal Saint-Dic, who was a second-team All-American in 2007. In addition, Ogemdi Nwagbuo, who Gill mentored in 2007, just completed his second season playing for the San Diego Chargers.

The 2009 Spartan defensive line featured two new starters and a steady mix of underclassmen in the rotation, but the unit still managed to help the defense rank third in the Big Ten and 17th nationally in sacks. The line was also instrumental in stopping the run, as the Spartans were fourth in the Big Ten and 24th nationally by allowing just 113.2 rushing ypg. MSU limited its opponents to fewer than 100 rushing yards in six games.

Veteran end Trevor Anderson led the line with 45 tackles (7.5 for loss) and earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors. Anderson, who also played under Gill at Cincinnati, amassed 39.5 tackles for loss and 22 sacks in his career.

In 2008, three Spartans on the defensive line earned honorable mention All-Big Ten honors, including seniors Justin Kershaw and Brandon Long, who both recorded career highs in tackles for loss and sacks. Anderson, in his first year as a Spartan after transferring from Cincinnati, collected a career high and team-leading eight sacks, which ranked sixth in the Big Ten.

Michigan State’s defensive line saw a dramatic improvement in Gill’s first season, as Saint-Dic and Ervin Baldwin enjoyed breakout years. Saint-Dic, a first-team All-Big Ten selection, set a Big Ten record and led the nation with eight forced fumbles. The senior ranked fourth in the conference and 16th in the NCAA in sacks with 10, marking the sixth-best total on MSU’s single-season chart. For his efforts, Saint-Dic was named a second-team Walter Camp All-American and was one of eight finalists for the Ted Hendricks Defensive End of the Year Award. Baldwin, a seventh-round draft choice by the Chicago Bears, led the team and ranked third in the Big Ten with 18.5 tackles for loss, which was the second-highest total in school history.

Brad Salem, a former head coach at NCAA Division II Augustana College in Sioux Falls, S.D., is in his second year as running backs coach at Michigan State and his first as recruiting coordinator.

Under Salem’s direction last season, Michigan State’s running backs improved their totals from 2009. The resurgent running game was led by Edwin Baker, who became just the sixth sophomore in MSU history to reach the 1,000-yard milestone as he compiled 1,201 rushing yards and scored 13 touchdowns. A first-team All-Big Ten honoree by the media, Baker ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 30th nationally in rushing, averaging 92.4 yard per game.

Baker wasn’t only one making noise in the backfield in 2010. True freshman Le’Veon Bell exploded onto the scene in the first

half of the season, collecting 549 yards and eight rushing TDs in the first six games, including a 141-yard effort in the season opener against Western Michigan, the most rushing yards ever by a Spartan in their collegiate debut. Bell closed his first season with 605 yards rushing and was named to the ESPN.com and Rivals.com All-Big Ten Freshman Team. Sophomore Larry Caper, the team’s leading rusher in 2009, was also a regular in the playing rotation.

In five seasons (2005-09) as head coach at Augustana College, Salem compiled a 31-26 record.

Salem led Augustana College to back-to-back 8-4 records and consecutive trips to the Mineral Water Bowl in 2008-09. The eight wins matched the school single-season record. In its first two seasons as members of the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference, Augustana finished fourth and tied for third, respectively, in the final standings and had 10 players earn South Division first-team all-conference honors.

After getting off to a 3-0 start in 2009, the Vikings made their first appearance in the American Football Coaches Association Division II Top 25 since 1989. Augustana finished fifth in the NSIC in total offense, averaging 400.9 ypg.

In 2008, Augustana won six of its last eight games, including a 37-16 victory over Missouri Western State in the Mineral Water Bowl in Excelsior Springs, Mo., as the Vikings rushed for 281 yards and five touchdowns against the Griffons. Augustana ranked among the NSIC leaders in rushing offense (third at 203.7 ypg.), scoring offense (third at 30.8 points per game) and total offense (fourth at 379.7 ypg.) in 2008.

In his first season as head coach in 2005, Salem guided Augustana to a 6-5 record – the program’s first winning season in three years.

Prior to being promoted to head coach, he spent two seasons as an assistant coach under Jim Heinitz, serving as quarterbacks coach in 2003 and offensive coordinator in 2004.

From 1994-95, Salem served as a graduate assistant under George Perles and Nick Saban at Michigan State, working with the quarterbacks and wide receivers.

A native of Sioux Falls, S.D., Salem shares his love of coaching football with his father Joe, former head coach at South Dakota (1966-74), Northern Arizona (1975-78) and Minnesota (1979-83); as well as his older brother Tim, tight ends coach and special teams coordinator at Central Florida; and his twin brother Brent, offensive coordinator at O’Gorman High School.

During his only season at CMU, Samuel mentored Cody Wilson, who posted one of the top individual receiving seasons in school history. Wilson caught 83 passes for 1,137 yards and five touchdowns, recording just the sixth individual 1,000-yard receiving season in school history. His 83 receptions rank fifth in school history for a single season, while his 1,137 yards rank third. He ranked ninth nationally in receiving yards per game (94.8), 11th in receptions per game (6.9) and 13th in total receiving yards. Wilson was named the team’s Herb Deromedi

Samuel arrived at North Dakota State after making a second stop at Nebraska-Omaha. He was the offensive coordinator and running backs coach at Nebraska-Omaha in 2007, helping lead the Mavericks to a 10-1 overall record and North Central Conference championship. Running backs Brian McNeill (first team) and Nate Wurth (second team) both earned all-conference honors.

Samuel coached receivers at Southeast Missouri State in 2006 following his original three-year stint at Nebraska-Omaha.

He coached defensive backs at Nebraska-Omaha in 2003 and 2004, then assumed the duties of special teams coordinator and outside linebackers coach in 2005. Samuel mentored All-America linebacker Kenny Onatolu, now a member of the Minnesota Vikings, in 2005, and he was part of a coaching staff that led the Mavericks to conference championships in 2004 and 2005.

Samuel began his coaching career at Nebraska-Omaha as a graduate assistant from 1998-2000. He also spent the 2001 and 2002 seasons as a graduate assistant at Arizona.

Samuel was a four-year letterman (1991-94) as a receiver for Coach Jim Colletto at Purdue. While at Purdue, he was the recipient of the 1994 Kiwanis Citizenship Award, which is presented to a Boilermaker football player who excels most in the combined roles of player, student and community volunteer.

Mark Staten is in his fifth year on the coaching staff at Michigan State and his first as the offensive line coach. He was promoted to offensive line coach in February after serving as the tight ends/tackles coach and recruiting coordinator the past four years. Staten adds a mix of professional playing experience with a solid coaching background.

Last season, Staten oversaw two of the most talented tight ends in the Big Ten, in senior Charlie Gantt and junior Brian Linthicum.

Gantt, who was a second-team All-Big Ten pick by the media, had 24 receptions for 301 yards and three touchdowns. He was an honorable mention All-American by SI.com and was named to the midseason watch list for the Mackey Award, which is awarded to the nation’s top tight end. Gantt ranked among the

top tight ends in Spartan history, finishing his career tied for third in TD receptions (9) and sixth in both receptions (65) and receiving yards (951).

A transfer from Clemson, Linthicum was on the preseason watch list for the Mackey Award, as Michigan State was the only school in the country to have two tight ends on the list. He recorded 18 catches for 230 yards and one TD in 2010 and has caught 38 passes for 496 yards in his two-year Spartan career.

Staten also worked with the tackles the past four seasons, and his mentoring of D.J. Young paid dividends in 2010 as Young moved from right tackle to left tackle. A second-team All-Big Ten selection by the coaches, Young and left guard Joel Foreman anchored an offensive line that ranked fifth in the Big Ten and 40th nationally in rushing during the regular season, averaging 168.8 yards per game.

As recruiting coordinator, Staten helped put together a 2009 recruiting class that analysts ranked among the nation’s Top 25 (MaxPreps/Tom Lemming No. 12, PrepStar No. 15, Rivals.com No. 17 and Scouts, Inc. No. 21). The Spartans followed that effort with another stellar class in 2010 that was ranked among the nation’s Top 30 (MaxPreps/Tom Lemming No. 22, Rivals.com No. 29).

In 2009, four Spartan tight ends combined for 56 receptions, 780 receiving yards and eight TD catches. In addition to coaching the tight ends, Staten’s work with the offensive line helped the unit allow the fewest amount of sacks in the Big Ten (14).

In 2008, Staten’s offensive line unit helped pave the way for Javon Ringer, the nation’s fourth-leading rusher and consensus first-team All-American. Under Staten’s tutelage, right tackle Jesse Miller earned his first career Big Ten honors, garnering second-team accolades from the league’s media.

Staten played an instrumental role in helping the Spartan offensive line become one of the best units in the Big Ten in 2007. He tutored left tackle Pete Clifford, who went on to earn second-team All-Big Ten honors. With the tight end position playing more of a prominent role in MSU’s new offensive system, Staten also helped Kellen Davis have his most productive year as a Spartan. Davis, a fifth-round NFL Draft pick by the Chicago Bears, recorded career highs in receptions (32), receiving yards (513) and touchdowns (6) as a senior.

Following the 2006 regular season, Staten was one of eight assistant coaches to follow head coach Mark Dantonio from Cincinnati to East Lansing. In 2006, Staten tutored team MVP Brent Celek, who set Cincinnati career records for receptions (88), receiving yards (1,114) and touchdowns (14) by a tight end. Celek, a second-team All-BIG EAST selection as a senior, was chosen by the Philadelphia Eagles in the fifth round of the 2007 NFL Draft.

Mike Tressel is in his fifth year as the linebackers and special teams coach at Michigan State.

In his role as linebackers coach over the last four seasons, Tressel mentored Greg Jones and Eric Gordon, two of the top linebackers in the nation who combined for 796 tackles in their careers.

A back-to-back first-team consensus All-American, Jones led the Spartans in tackles (106), forced fumbles (3) and quarterback hurries (6) and ranked tied for first in tackles for loss (10 for 20 yards) in 2010. He became just the seventh player in program history to receive first-team All-Big Ten honors three times.

A model of consistency, Jones led the team in tackles in 31 of his last 39 games and became only the second player in

MSU history to lead the Spartans in tackles for four-straight seasons (linebacker Dan Bass, 1976-79). The Cincinnati, Ohio, native started 46 of 52 career games and ranks among MSU’s all-time leaders in tackles for loss (second with 44.5), tackles (third with 457) and sacks (sixth with 16.5). Jones became the first Spartan to win Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year accolades after collecting 154 tackles in 2009, the most in the conference and third nationally. He was rated the No. 1 linebacker in the nation by CollegeFootballNews.com and earned the Linebacker Trophy (Linebacker of the Year) by the College Football Performance Awards.

Jones was selected in the sixth round (No. 185 overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft by the New York Giants.

Gordon started more games (49) than any player in Spartan history, including 40 consecutive starting assignments. He finished his career ranked among MSU’s all-time leaders in tackles for loss (10th with 29), tackles (12th with 331) and sacks (21st with 9.5). A second-team All-Big Ten selection by the coaches and media as a senior, Gordon was second on the team and 13th in the Big Ten with 92 tackles (7.1 avg.) in 2010, which tied his career high.

Tressel also oversees a successful special teams unit that has been one of the best in the Big Ten since his arrival. Over the last four years, MSU has had two first-team All-Big Ten placekickers (Brett Swenson, Dan Conroy), a first-team All-Big Ten punter (Aaron Bates), and has featured conference leaders in both kick returns (Devin Thomas) and punt returns (Keshawn Martin).

Last season, Bates ranked first in the Big Ten and 13th in the nation with his 45.0-yard punting average to earn first-team All-Big Ten accolades and second-team All-America honors by SI.com. In addition, Martin ranked first in the conference and 11th nationally in punt returns (14.2 avg.), and sophomore Dan Conroy was a first-team All-Big Ten selection after going 14-for-15 in field goals during his first year as the starting placekicker.

Not only did the unit rank among the national leaders statistically in 2010, but it also delivered in the clutch. Four of the biggest plays during Michigan State’s Big Ten Championship season arrived on special teams, including: Bates’ 29-yard completion to Charlie Gantt on a fake field goal in overtime that won the game against Notre Dame; Martin’s 72-yard punt return for a touchdown that gave MSU the lead for good in the win over Wisconsin; Bates’ 21-yard pass to Bennie Fowler on a fake punt in the fourth quarter that sparked MSU’s comeback at Northwestern; and Denicos Allen’s blocked punt late in the fourth quarter against Purdue that led to the game-winning touchdown.

Under the direction of Dave Warner the last four seasons, Spartan quarterbacks have been posting record numbers.

In his second year as the starter in 2010, Kirk Cousins blossomed his junior season and posted one of the finest statistical seasons in Michigan State history. An honorable mention All-Big Ten selection by the coaches and media, Cousins ranked among the Top 10 Spartan single-season leaders in completion percentage (67 percent - second), pass completions (226 - third), passing yards (2,825 - third), touchdown passes (20 - tied for fourth), total offense (2,689 yards - fourth) and pass attempts (338 - sixth). He also ranked fifth in the Big Ten and No. 18 in the NCAA Football Subdivision in passing efficiency with his 150.7 rating.

Cousins tied a Michigan State record by throwing a touchdown pass in 16 consecutive games (spanning from 2009 to 2010), and also had one stretch of six consecutive 200-yard passing games. For his efforts, he was named one of 16 semifinalists for the Davey O’Brien Award, which is presented to the nation’s top quarterback.

Cousins played his best when the game was on the line, as his 170.1 second-half passing efficiency rating ranked No. 11 among all NCAA FBS quarterbacks. In the second half (24 quarters and overtime), he connected on 70 percent (102-of-146) of his passes and threw 11 TDs.

A two-time team captain, Cousins owns a 16-9 record as a starter and is moving up the Michigan State career charts as well. He ranks first in completion percentage (.643) and passing efficiency (146.7), fourth in passing (5,815 yards) and total offense (5,727 yards), and sixth in pass completions (456) and touchdown passes (41). In addition to Cousins, Warner also tutored Keith Nichol, who threw for 764 yards and seven TDs in 2009 while compiling a 143.2 quarterback rating.

With their successful seasons, Cousins and Nichol combined to give Michigan State the No. 2 passing attack in the Big Ten Conference, averaging nearly 270 yards per game. The Spartans also ranked No. 1 in the league and 17th in the nation in passing efficiency with their 145.1 quarterback rating. MSU established a school record with 28 touchdown passes in 2009, and the 3,502 passing yards ranked second in the school record books.

In 2007 and 2008, Warner mentored Brian Hoyer, who became one of the most productive quarterbacks in Spartan history. Hoyer ranks among MSU’s career leaders in pass attempts (No. 2 at 896), passing yards (No. 3 with 6,159), pass completions (No. 3 at 500) and TD passes (No. 7 with 35). Hoyer, who threw for more than 2,000 yards in back-to-back seasons, is one of just three MSU quarterbacks to record 6,000 career passing yards. Warner also developed Hoyer’s game management skills, as the senior captain accumulated a 16-11 record and led the Spartans to back-to-back bowl appearances. After signing a free agent contract in April 2009, Hoyer has worked his way into the back-up quarterback role for the New England Patriots the last two seasons.

Warner has been a quarterbacks coach and/or offensive coordinator or passing game coordinator for 22 of his previous 27 seasons as a college assistant.

In 2010, linebacker Greg Jones became Michigan State’s seventh three-time first-team All-Big Ten selection and the first since punter Brandon Fields (2003, 2004 and 2006). Jones also became the first Spartan to reach the 100-tackle milestone in three-straight seasons since Percy Snow (1987-89).

This Owosso, Mich., native revolutionized MAC’s football program during his first of three stints as Aggie coach. Chester Brewer was a four-sport star at Wisconsin, earning All-Western honors in football. A defensive genius, Aggie teams posted shutouts in 49 of the 88 games Brewer coached. His greatest efforts included a 0-0 tie against Fielding Yost’s 1908 Michigan team and a 17-0 shutout over Notre Dame in 1910. Brewer, who later coached at Missouri, died in 1953 at age 77.

An outstanding athlete at Pennsylvania, John Macklin succeeded Chester Brewer as Aggie coach. He was said to have stood about 6-5 and weighed around 250 pounds. Macklin won more than 85 percent of his games at MAC, compiling 29 victories in 34 contests. Among his greatest accomplishments were a 35-20 win over Ohio State in 1912, the first achieved by MAC over a Big Ten team; the school’s first victory over Michigan, 12-7, in 1913; a 6-3 upset win against Penn State in 1914; and a 24-0 shutout of Michigan in 1915. Macklin died in 1949 at the age of 65.

The first Michigan State alumnus to direct an Aggie team was George Gauthier, a quarterback under John Macklin in 1912 and ’13. Though the record was only 4-3, his 1918 club produced one of the most astounding upsets in Aggie history, defeating Knute Rockne’s first Notre Dame team which starred a sophomore back named George Gipp. A year after leaving MAC, Gauthier assumed duties as athletic director and head coach at Ohio Wesleyan, a dual position he held for 34 years. He died in 1964 at the age of 74.

George “Potsy” Clark, an All-America quarterback under the legendary Bob Zuppke at Illinois, served as MAC’s coach for only one season. The Aggies had a losing record, but one of those victories was a record 109-0 rout of Olivet. Among his other stops in college coaching were at Minnesota and Butler. He also served as athletic director at Nebraska, 1945-1953. Clark is probably best known as head coach of the Detroit Lions that won the 1935 NFL title. He died in 1972 at the age of 78.

Michigan football All-American Harry Kipke directed the Spartans for only one season. A Lansing (Mich.) High School graduate, he began his coaching career with a 103-0 victory over Kalamazoo College, but highlights after that were few and far between. Kipke nearly directed State to an upset victory over his alma mater, and that performance probably enticed Michigan to hire him as its coach the very next season. He died in 1972 at the age of 73.

Jim Crowley, one of Notre Dame’s immortal Four Horsemen, joined Michigan State’s staff as its head football coach in 1929. His arrival became the catalyst which transformed a mediocre program into a nationally-respected major power for the first time since the coaching era of John Macklin. “Sleepy Jim” produced four-straight winning seasons for the Spartans. A pair of 0-0 ties against Michigan in 1930 and ’31 broke State’s 14-game losing streak to the Wolverines, a span which saw UM outscore MSC by a total of 392-9. A night game loss at Georgetown spoiled the Spartans’ otherwise undefeated season in 1930. He was named head coach at Fordham in 1933, becoming the architect of the “Seven Blocks of Granite.” Crowley died in 1986 at the age of 83.

An outstanding player for both Fielding Yost at Michigan and Amos Alonzo Stagg at Chicago, the roly-poly Ralph Young coached MAC and MSC with only moderate success. However, he brought stability to a program that badly needed it, laying the foundation on which the school’s athletic structure grew. MAC nearly surprised powerful Michigan in its stadium dedication game of 1924, losing 7-0. Young, who also was a fine track and field coach, is best known for his success as State’s athletic director, 1923-54. He died in 1962 at the age of 72.

Charlie Bachman, another Notre Dame alumnus, succeeded Jim Crowley as head football coach at Michigan State, coming to East Lansing after a successful stint at Florida. A teammate of Knute Rockne, Bachman employed the Notre Dame system and forged 10 winning seasons in 13 years. During his second season with the Spartans in 1934, he led State to an 8-1 record, which included a 16-0 victory over Michigan, the school’s first since 1915. That marked the first of four-straight wins over UM. MSC posted another 8-1 regular-season record in 1937 and received the school’s first bid to a postseason bowl game, the 1938 Orange Bowl. Among Bachman’s greatest Spartan players were guard Sid Wagner, State’s first All-American since 1915, halfback John Pingel and fullback Jack Breslin. Bachman died in 1985 at the age of 93.

One of the most popular coaches in the history of college football was Michigan State’s personable Duffy Daugherty. An undergraduate star for Syracuse, he was a member of Biggie Munn’s staff there in 1946 when State hired Munn. Daugherty served initially as line coach at MSU, tutoring such Spartan standouts as Don Coleman and Frank Kush. Then, following State’s 1954 Rose Bowl victory over UCLA, Munn stepped in as athletic director and named Duffy as head coach. Daugherty’s ’55 club went 9-1 and received the Big Ten’s Rose Bowl bid, defeating UCLA, 17-14. His greatest teams, though, came in 1965 and ’66 when those two star-studded squads posted a cumulative record of 19-1-1 and two Big Ten championships. The only loss was a 14-12 defeat at the hands of UCLA in the 1966 Rose Bowl and the lone tie was the monumental 10-10 “Game of the Century” vs. Notre Dame in ’66. Duffy’s 1965 Spartans were a defensive juggernaut and won the No. 1 ranking in the final UPI poll. During Duffy’s 19 seasons at MSU, 29 different players earned first-team All-America honors. The list included such stars as Earl Morrall, Sherman Lewis, George Webster, Clinton Jones, Gene Washington, Bubba Smith, Brad Van Pelt and Billy Joe DuPree. Daugherty’s individual honors included National Coach of the Year laurels in both 1955 and ’65, and induction into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1984. Duffy died in 1987 at the age of 72, in Santa Barbara, Calif.

The most successful Spartan coach of all-time in terms of winning percentage (.857) is former Minnesota All-American Clarence “Biggie” Munn. He came to MSC directly from Syracuse where he served as head coach for only one season. Despite an inauspicious 55-0 drubbing from Michigan in his Spartan debut, Munn quickly turned things around as the team ended the 1947 campaign with a 7-2 record. Workman-like progress continued the next two seasons, but then the Spartans burst onto the national scene in 1950, finishing in the Top 10 in the final wire service polls with an 8-1 mark that included victories over third-ranked Michigan and Notre Dame. Munn compiled a 27-1 worksheet over the next three years, winning back-to-back national championships in 1951 and ’52 with identical 9-0 records. In 1952, Munn earned national Coach of the Year honors from the American Football Coaches Association after the Spartans produced wins over three ranked opponents, including No. 17 Penn State, No. 8 Purdue and No. 6 Notre Dame. MSC ran its winning streak to 28-straight games in 1953 before losing at Purdue, 6-0. In their first season of competition in the Big Ten, the Spartans grabbed a share of the 1953 league championship with a 5-1 record. MSC posted its third consecutive 9-win season in 1953, thanks to its 28-20 victory over UCLA in the 1954 Rose Bowl. In seven seasons at MSC, Munn produced 18 All-Americans, including the great two-way tackle Don Coleman. He was voted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1959. About a week after his team’s Rose Bowl victory, Munn stepped down from coaching to assume the duties as MSC’s athletics director. He served in that capacity for 18 years, building the Spartans into a nationally prominent football program. In 1971, a stroke forced Munn to retire from MSU and four years later in 1975, he died at the age of 66.

Denny Stolz, defensive coordinator under Duffy Daugherty, was the 16th man to direct Spartan football fortunes. The graduate and former head coach at Alma College started off slowly at MSU, but soon built the Spartans into a Big Ten challenger. Stolz’ second club finished a half-game behind Michigan and Ohio State in the 1974 Big Ten standings, earning him conference Coach of the Year honors. The highlight that year was an unforgettable upset victory over the top-ranked Buckeyes at Spartan Stadium. His final MSU team tied for third in the conference standings with the major accomplishment an upset victory at Notre Dame. Stolz left MSU following the 1975 season. He coached at Bowling Green State, 1977-85, and then served as head coach at San Diego State, 1986-88.

Darryl Rogers joined the Spartan football staff following stints at Hayward State and San Jose State in California. Like the two men who preceeded him at Michigan State, Rogers’ first team struggled a bit, but he bounced back big in season number two. The Spartans, who set a conference record for offensive proficiency, finished a half-game behind Michigan and Ohio State with a 6-1-1 Big Ten record. In 1978, MSU shared the Big Ten title with the Wolverines, earning Rogers Big Ten Coach of the Year honors. NCAA probation prohibited State from going to the Rose Bowl. Following the 1979 season, he left MSU for the head coaching position at Arizona State, 1980-84. Following his stint with the Sun Devils, Rogers signed as head coach of the Detroit Lions, 1985-88. During the 1991 season, he served as the head coach of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers of the Canadian Football League. He served as the athletic director at Southern Connecticut State for 10 years, retiring in 2003.

Frank “Muddy” Waters became only the second former Michigan State player to coach the Spartans. The personable coach was named head man at MSU one day before his 57th birthday, following a highly successful career at Hillsdale College and Saginaw Valley State. Waters compiled a 138-46-5 record in 20 seasons at Hillsdale (1954-73) and a 25-26-2 mark in five years at Saginaw Valley (1975-79), while building the program from scratch. Three Spartans – Ray Stachowicz, Morten Andersen and James Burroughs – won All-America honors during Muddy’s tenure at MSU. Thanks to his contributions to small college football in Michigan, Waters was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2000. He died in 2006 at the age of 83.

Former Spartan gridder and assistant coach George Perles saw his dream of becoming head coach of the MSU football program come true when he was named to the position on Dec. 3, 1982. After posting just 10 wins in three seasons prior to his arrival, Perles helped return MSU to national prominence with two bowl appearances in his first three seasons. In 1987, Perles and the Spartans captured the Big Ten title and made the program’s first Rose Bowl appearance since 1966. The Spartans topped USC, 20-17, ending the year at 9-2-1, the most victories by an MSU squad since 1966, along with a No. 8 national ranking. His efforts that season earned him Football News’ Coach of the Year honors. The Rose Bowl began a string of four-straight bowl appearances which included triumphs in the 1989 Aloha and ’90 John Hancock Bowls. The architect of the

dominating Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense during the Super Bowl years (1974-75-78-79), 50 of his players were selected in the NFL Draft, including nine first-rounders. He guided the Spartans to a Big Ten slate of 53-42-3, and to seven bowl games. In 2007, Perles was inducted into the Western Chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame and the MSU Athletics Hall of Fame. (Career record reflects five 1994 wins forfeited by MSU as part of 1996 self-imposed sanctions.)

Nick Saban became the 20th head football coach in MSU history on Dec. 3, 1994, following a highly successful NFL stint with the Cleveland Browns. As the Browns’ defensive coordinator, he led the NFL’s stingiest scoring defense in 1994 as that unit allowed the sixth-fewest points in league history. His winning ways continued at Michigan State, as he promptly became the first Spartan coach to lead his teams to bowl games in each of his first three seasons, including the 1995 Independence, ’96 Sun and ’97 Aloha Bowls. The Spartans returned to national prominence in 1999, going 9-2, and earning a trip to the 2000 Florida Citrus Bowl. Prior to the bowl game, Saban left to take the head coaching job at LSU. Saban previously coached at MSU, serving as an assistant coach from 1983-87, helping the Spartans to the 1987 Big Ten and ’88 Rose Bowl championships.

Bobby Williams became the 21st head coach in Spartan history when he assumed control of the team on Dec. 5, 1999, after Nick Saban left for LSU. Prior to taking over as head coach, Williams coached Michigan State’s running backs for 10 years. He made his head-coaching debut on Jan. 1, 2000, and led the Spartans to a last-second victory over No. 10 Florida, 37-34, in the Florida Citrus Bowl. With MSU’s 44-35 triumph over No. 20 Fresno State in the 2001 Silicon Valley Football Classic, Williams became the first head coach in Spartan football history to win his first two bowl games.

Michigan State veteran offensive coordinator Morris Watts served as interim head coach for the final three games of the 2002 season. Watts made his head-coaching debut on Nov. 9, 2002, and led the Spartans to a 56-21 victory at Indiana, snapping a four-game losing streak. He became the 11th head coach in school history to produce a win in his Spartan debut. Watts enjoyed three stints as MSU’s offensive coordinator, holding that position for a total of 12 seasons (1986-90, 1992-94 and 1999-2002). He returned to Michigan State in 1999 following a four-year tenure as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at LSU (1995-98).

John L. Smith became Michigan State University’s 23rd head football coach on Dec. 19, 2002. Smith, who inherited a team that went 4-8 in 2002, produced an 8-4 regular-season record in 2003 and earned Dave McClain (Big Ten) Coach of the Year honors. His eight wins marked the most by a first-year coach in Spartan history. Smith came to Michigan State following five seasons at Louisville (1998-2002) where he put together a 41-21 worksheet (.661), including five straight bowl appearances and back-to-back C-USA titles in 2000-01. He posted a 16-18 ledger (.471) in three seasons at Utah State (1995-97) while leading the Aggies to consecutive Big West Conference crowns in 1996-97. His six-year mark of 53-21 (.716) at Idaho (1989-94) included five NCAA I-AA playoff appearances and five Top 20 finishes. Twelve of his 18 teams participated in postseason play.

Mark Dantonio became Michigan State University’s 24th head football coach on Nov. 27, 2006. Dantonio has led Michigan State to four-straight bowl appearances – a first for the program since 1987-90 – and has already won 33 games, the most by any Spartan head coach in his first four seasons. In 2010, he led Michigan State to a school-record 11 wins and a share of its first Big Ten Championship in 20 years. Dantonio, who was selected Big Ten Coach of the Year, helped manage the third-biggest turnaround among NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision teams during the regular season, as the Spartans improved from 6-7 in 2009 to 11-1 in 2010. Thanks to its 28-22 victory at Penn State in the regular-season finale, MSU recorded its first win in State College since 1965 and finished in a three-way tie for the 2010 Big Ten Championship. MSU also completed its first-ever 7-0 home season, including a 34-31 overtime win over Notre Dame and a 34-24 victory over Wisconsin in the Big Ten opener. He compiled an 18-17 record (.514) in three seasons at Cincinnati, including two postseason bowl appearances. Prior to accepting his first head coaching position at Cincinnati, Dantonio spent three years as defensive coordinator under Jim Tressel at Ohio State (2001-03) where he helped the Buckeyes to a combined record of 32-6 (.842), including the 2002 National Championship. He previously spent six seasons as secondary coach at Michigan State (1995-2000), including five years under Nick Saban and one under Bobby Williams. His college full-time coaching credits also include stops at Kansas (1991-94), Youngstown State (1986-90) and Akron (1985).

old Brass spittoonSince 1950, the winner of the Michigan State-Indiana game has been presented the Old Brass Spittoon. The trophy was initiated by the junior and senior classes and the MSU student council at Michigan State, and soon accepted by the IU Student Senate. The brass spittoon came from one of Michigan’s earliest trading posts and is widely believed to be nearly 190 years old. Legend has it that the spittoon was around when both institutions were founded Indiana: in 1820 and MAC in 1855. Since ’50, Michigan State leads the series 40-12-1.

land-Grant trophySince the renewal of the series in 1993, the winner of the Michigan State-Penn State game has been presented the Land-Grant Trophy. The trophy honors the two universities’ unique places in history as the two pioneer land-grant schools in the nation. Each institution was founded in 1855, Michigan State on Feb. 12 and Penn State on Feb. 22. The schools were the prototypes after which the land-grant system was patterned. The trophy features pictures of campus landmarks, Michigan State’s Beaumont Tower and Penn State’s Old Main, plus replicas of the Spartan and Nittany Lion. Since 1993, Penn State leads the series 13-5.

megaphone trophySince 1949, the winner of the Michigan State-Notre Dame game has been presented the Megaphone Trophy, sponsored jointly by the Detroit alumni clubs of both schools. The megaphone is printed half blue, with a gold ND monogram, and half white, with a green MSC. All previous game scores are listed on the trophy. Michigan State and Notre Dame played 36 consecutive seasons from 1959-94 until the two-year interruption of the series in 1995-96.

Paul Bunyan trophySince 1953, the winner of the Michigan State-Michigan game has been presented the Paul Bunyan Trophy. The four-foot wooden statue was donated by then-Governor G. Mennen Williams to mark Michigan State’s acceptance into the Big Ten. Since ’53, Michigan leads the series 34-22-2. The trophy depicts the legendary giant lumberjack astride an axe with feet planted on a map of the state with flags representing the schools.

high 140 yards on the ground against Michigan in a 20-7 victory earned him UPI Back of the Week honors. He finished his career as MSU’s most prolific rushing fullback with 1,343 yards in 262 attempts. A ninth-round pick of the Green Bay Packers in the ’68 NFL Draft.

Ed Bagdon garnered All-America status as a senior in 1949 as chosen by Look, United Press, The Sporting News, New York News, Central Press, Newspaper

Enterprise Association and Tele-News. The recipient of the 1949 Outland Trophy as the nation’s top interior lineman, he was part of a group known as “Duffy’s Toughies” who knocked holes in opposing defenses from his guard position for Spartan backs. He developed a peculiar, but effective, shoulder brush-type block that took tacklers out of the play, but permitted him to keep on his feet and on the move. Named team captain in 1949, he started every game during his varsity career. Following his stint at MSU, he played professionally with the Chicago Cardinals and Washington Redskins.

Carl Banks earned All-America honors as a senior in 1983 from the Associated Press, United Press and The Sporting News. Named the Spartans’ MVP that

season, he recorded 86 tackles, despite opponents rarely running to his side of the field, while closing out his career with 279 hits. Named as college football’s linebacker of the year by the Columbus Touchdown Club, he was named first-team All-Big Ten three times and was MSU’s first non-kicker to be named to the all-league team more than twice. He was taken in the first round (third player overall) by the New York Giants in the ’84 NFL Draft. In 1996, he was selected as a member of the MSU Centennial Super Squad as picked in a poll conducted by the Lansing State Journal.

Harlon Barnett captured first-team All-America recognition as picked by The Sporting News as a senior in 1989. He was a primary reason that the Green

and White ranked No. 1 in the Big Ten and No. 11 nationally in both rushing defense (95.4 ypg.) and total defense (280.5 ypg.). He compiled 73 stops, high among Spartan DBs, along with three pass interceptions and three fumble recoveries. One of his pass thefts was a 35-yard return for a TD against No. 2-ranked Miami. He finished his career with 154 tackles, six interceptions and 13 pass break-ups. He was chosen in the fourth round by the Cleveland Browns in the 1990 draft.

Dave Behrman was an All-America pick as a junior in 1961 as selected by the Associated Press and Football Writers Association and his senior year by CBS-

TV. Nicknamed “The Big Bear,” the 6-foot-4, 265-pounder dominated opponents with his strength. He ranked No. 2

harlon barnett #36 CB | 6-0 | 192 CINCINNATI, OHIO

carl bankS #54 OLB | 6-6 | 235 FLINT, MICH.

ed bagdon #65 G | 5-10 | 200 DEARBORN, MICH.

on the club in minutes in 1961 and logged 297 minutes as a senior when he concentrated on his center position. His versatility enabled him to play tackle, guard and center during his career. Drafted in the first round by both the Buffalo Bills and the Chicago Bears, he played for the Bills from 1963-67.

LeRoy Bolden distinguished himself as an All-American his junior season in 1953 as picked by NBC-TV. Bolden paced the squad in rushing with 691

yards and scoring with 48 points. His running helped MSU to a Rose Bowl appearance in the school’s first year of Big Ten play, especially in games against Minnesota and No. 16-ranked Ohio State where he registered three TDs vs. both foes while rushing for 145 and 128 yards, respectively. An all-around performer, he was a standout in the secondary and on special teams as a returner. At the conclusion of his career, he stood No. 2 on the school’s all-time list in total touchdowns (26) and total points (156).

Mark Brammer landed All-America honors as a junior in 1978 as selected by the Football Writers Association, the only Big Ten gridder to earn that distinction

that season. He grabbed 33 aerials for 360 yards and two TDs in ’78, and was a key part of MSU’s most productive offense ever—ranking No. 1 in the Big Ten in passing, scoring (No. 3 nationally at 37.4 ppg.) and total offense (No. 3 nationally at 481.3 ypg.). Started every game from his sophomore through senior years. Finished his career No. 3 on the school’s all-time receptions list with 107. Picked by the Buffalo Bills in the third round of the 1980 NFL Draft.

Art Brandstatter drew All-America acclaim as a senior in 1936 as selected by the All-American Board. Brandstatter was part of a Michigan State program

that compiled a 20-4-2 record during his varsity career. He was selected to the 1961 Silver Anniversary All-America Team by Sports Illustrated. One of his great moments took place in 1935 when a 59-yard run in the fourth quarter against highly-ranked Temple set up the winning TD in a 12-7 decision.

Allen Brenner was named an All-American as a senior in 1968 by the American Football Coaches and the Newspaper Enterprise Association. His

final year as a Spartan saw him record 63 tackles while coming up with a team-high eight touchdown saving hits, including three vs. Notre Dame (the last one of which was a fumble-jarring hit on Notre Dame’s Terry Hanratty on MSU’s 2-yard line on fourth-and-goal), which preserved a 21-17 upset win. A fine two-way player, Brenner hauled in 25 pass receptions, while playing a total of 449 minutes out of 600. Named team MVP in ’68, he finished his career No. 2 on

leroy bolden #39 HB | 5-7 | 163 FLINT, MICH.

dave behrman #51 OG | 6-4 | 265 DOWAGIAC, MICH.

Flozell Adams captured first-team All-America recognition as picked by the Walter Camp Foundation as a senior in 1997. The ’97 Big Ten Offensive Lineman

of the Year, Adams started all 12 games at left tackle and helped the Spartans to a No. 24 spot nationally in rushing offense (199.5 ypg.). He also opened holes for MSU running backs who tallied 100 or more yards seven times during the season. At 6-foot-7, 330 pounds, Adams allowed only two sacks and recorded 37 pancakes. He was drafted in the second round by the Dallas Cowboys in the 1998 NFL Draft.

Eric Allen brought home All-America honors his senior year in 1971 as chosen by the American Football Coaches Association. Allen rushed for a Big Ten-

leading 1,494 yards in overall action, an MSU seasonal record that stood until 1985. In addition, Allen’s 1,283 yards on the ground in league contests established a Big Ten mark, as did his 110 points, making him the first player in Big Ten history to crack the century mark. Allen broke two NCAA records, four Big Ten marks and nine MSU records in ’71. His greatest game came against Purdue when he rushed for an NCAA-record 350 yards on 29 carries, a record that stood until 1978. Named the Big Ten’s MVP in ’71, he rushed for 100 or more yards on seven occasions and his 18 TDs represented school and Big Ten records. Career-wise, he finished as MSU’s all-time leader in rushing attempts (521) and rushing yards (2,654). Drafted by the Baltimore Colts in the fourth round of the 1972 NFL Draft, he signed with the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL.

Morten Andersen was an All-America honoree his senior year in 1981 as chosen by The Sporting News, United Press and the Walter Camp Foundation.

He was MSU’s leading scorer with 73 points on 28 PATs and 15 field goals (20 att.). He set a school and Big Ten record when he drilled a 63-yard field goal against Ohio State. In addition, opponents returned just 17 of his 56 kickoffs. Andersen closed out his college career ranked No. 1 on the MSU and Big Ten lists in field goals with 45 while holding down the top spot on the school’s all-time chart in PATs (126) and total points (261). He recorded seven field goals of 50 or more yards and three others of 49 yards. Picked by the New Orleans Saints in the fourth round of the 1982 NFL Draft.

Bob Apisa was an All-America selection as a sophomore in 1965 by Football News and his junior year in 1966 by Football News and the New York News. In

’65, despite missing most of the last three games due to a knee injury, he rushed for 666 yards, then the best seasonal mark turned in by a Spartan fullback, along with nine TDs. In 1966, Apisa once again was hampered by knee problems, but rushed for 445 yards and eight six-pointers. His career-

MSU’s all-time list in receptions (73) and receiving yards (1,232). One of two sophomore starters on the Spartans’ 1966 national championship team, he set a school record (which still stands) when he returned a punt 95 yards for a TD against Illinois in his first Big Ten game. He was drafted by the New York Giants in the seventh round of the 1969 NFL Draft. In 1996, he was named to the MSU Centennial Super Squad.

Ed Budde was afforded All-America accolades as a senior in 1962 as picked by Time Magazine. Possessing both fine agility and speed, his blocking prowess

helped MSU to a No. 2 national ranking in total rushing yardage. Following his senior year, he was the captain of the 1963 College All-Star team that defeated the Green Bay Packers. A first-round draft pick of both the Dallas Stars of the American Football League and the Philadelphia Eagles of the NFL, he enjoyed a 14-year career with the Kansas City Chiefs, earning All-Pro recognition seven times.

James Burroughs captured All-America honors as a senior in 1981 as picked by The Sporting News. After sitting out the 1980 season due to academic reasons,

he bounced back in strong fashion to post 46 tackles while registering a then-MSU single-season record of 13 pass break-ups. Burroughs was part of a Spartan defense that ranked No. 1 in the Big Ten in pass defense in 1981. He was a first-team All-Big Ten choice as picked by the league’s coaches in 1981. He finished his collegiate career with 119 tackles and held the school record for pass break-ups with 28. Picked in the third round by Buffalo in the 1982 NFL Draft.

A great all-around athlete, Robert Carey was selected as an All-American as a senior in 1951 by the Associated Press, United Press, The Sporting News,

Newspaper Enterprise Association, New York News and the All-American Board. MSU’s leading receiver for three-straight years, he hauled in 20 aerials for 263 yards and three TDs in ’51. Career-wise, he finished with 65 receptions for 1,074 yards and 14 TDs, with all three totals representing then school career records. In MSU’s 24-20 come-from-behind win at Ohio State, Carey caught four passes for 50 yards, converted three PATs and made a 24-yard field goal. Against Colorado, in his final collegiate game, he caught five passes for 104 yards and two touchdowns in a 45-7 win. He is just one of 10 athletes in the history of MSU to have earned nine varsity letters. He played professionally with the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Bears. In 1996, he was named to MSU’s Centennial Super Squad (Pre-Big Ten Era).

Lynn Chandnois was an All-America pick as a senior in 1949 as chosen by the International News Service, United Press, Central Press, Football News and

jameS burroughS #28 CB | 6-1 | 190 PAHOKEE, FLA.

ed budde #79 OT | 6-4 | 243 DETROIT, MICH.

Collier’s. One of the great two-way performers of his day, Chandnois rushed for a school-record 885 yards on 129 carries. Chandnois also intercepted seven enemy pass attempts, returning those thefts a total of 183 yards (tops in the nation). He paced the club in scoring with 60 points and rushed for over 100 yards in four contests that season, including a career-high 163 yards against Arizona. In the 75-0 win over the Wildcats, he sprinted 90 yards for a TD, still the longest rushing play in Spartan history. He played 55 minutes or better in six games while going all 60 in two outings. He closed out his career in the No. 1 spot in a variety of career categories at MSU, including rushing with 2,103 yards, total touchdowns with 30 (currently No. 6) and in points with 180. His 20 career interceptions are still the all-time MSU standard as is his 410 pass interception return yards. A No. 1 pick of the Pittsburgh Steelers, he played with that franchise until 1957.

DeAndra Cobb, a first-team All-America selection by Collegefootballnews.com, led the Big Ten and ranked No. 11 in the NCAA in kickoff returns with his

27.2-yard average in 2003. His 763 kickoff return yards rank fourth on Michigan State’s single-season chart. Cobb returned five kickoffs for 167 yards (33.4 avg.) vs. Ohio State, including a 93-yard runback for a touchdown in the third quarter. It marked the first kickoff return for a TD allowed by the Buckeyes since 1984 when Michigan State’s Larry Jackson returned a kick 93 yards. Cobb set a Spartan single-season record with his third runback for a score, breaking the mark (two TDs) previously shared by Herb Haygood (2001), Derrick Mason (1995) and Derek Hughes (1979). His three kickoff returns for TDs also tied the NCAA I-A single-season record shared by Texas A&M’s Leeland McElroy (1993), New Mexico’s Terance Mathis (1989), Tennessee’s Willie Gault (1980), Southern Cal’s Anthony Davis (1974), Purdue’s Stan Brown (1970) and San Francisco’s Forrest Hall (1946). The 5-foot-10, 186-pound Cobb also scored on kickoff returns of 100 yards vs. Minnesota and 94 yards vs. Rutgers. His 100-yard runback against Minnesota tied the Spartan record for longest return (Herb Haygood vs. Iowa, 2001; Derrick Mason vs. LSU, 1995, and Penn State, 1994; and Derek Hughes vs. Oregon, 1979). In two seasons (2003-04), Cobb returned 64 kickoffs for 1,632 yards and four TDs. His career 25.5-yard kickoff return average ranks sixth on the Big Ten’s all-time list. He was selected by the Atlanta Falcons in the sixth round of the 2005 NFL Draft.

Don Coleman was MSU’s first unanimous All-American as a senior in 1951 as picked by the Associated Press, United Press, Collier’s, Look, The

Sporting News, New York News, Football News, Newspaper Enterprise Association, All-American Board, International News Service, Chicago Tribune Players and Central Press. Although just 185 pounds, Coleman used his quickness and technique to become a devastating blocker. The squad’s MVP in ’51, he finished runner-up to Jim Weatherall (Oklahoma) in the voting for the Outland Trophy. Known as the “60-minute man,” Coleman stood out on defense and special teams. Against Penn State, he made every tackle on MSU’s kickoffs and punts. Against Michigan, he made eight key blocks which enabled teammates to go for long gains. Coleman became the first Spartan player ever to have his jersey retired (No. 78) and was called by former head coach

Biggie Munn “the finest lineman ever to play for Michigan State.” He was chosen to the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame in 1975 and was a member of MSU’s Centennial Super Squad (Pre-Big Ten) as chosen by the Lansing State Journal in August of 1996.

Ron Curl was an All-America choice as a senior in 1971 as picked by the American Football Coaches Association. The 6-foot-1, 250-pounder ranked third

on the squad in hits with 89, including a team-high seven tackles for losses. One of his big outings that season was a 10-tackle performance vs. ninth-ranked Ohio State in a 17-10 win, ending a 16-game conference win streak by the Buckeyes. A two-time first-team All-Big Ten selection, he finished his three-year career with 204 stops, including 25 career tackles for losses, then No. 1 on MSU’s all-time chart. Drafted in the 12th round by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1972.

Dan Currie was an All-American his senior year in 1957 as selected by the Associated Press, Football Writers Association, International News Service,

Football Coaches Association and NBC-TV. A stalwart performer on both sides of the ball, Currie’s blocking helped the Spartans to a No. 1 ranking among Big Ten squads in both total offense and scoring. Defensively, he was the catalyst from his linebacker post of a brigade that stood No. 1 in the league in rushing defense and total defense. He was team MVP of the ’57 unit that claimed a No. 3 national ranking. Named as the outstanding college player in ’57 by the Football Coaches Association, he was drafted in the first round by the Green Bay Packers in 1958. He earned NFL All-Pro honors twice at linebacker with the Packers during a seven year stint.

Jerry DaPrato was an All-American his senior year in 1915 as picked by the International News Service and Detroit Times. A strong runner, one of his

favorite devices was a straight arm to ward off would-be tacklers. DaPrato led the nation in scoring, running for 15 touchdowns, booting 28 extra points and converting two field goals for a total of 124 points. He accounted for 153 yards in a 24-0 win over Michigan and recorded 32 points in two games during the ’15 campaign.

Joe DeLamielleure gained All-America honors as a senior in 1972 as selected by The Sporting News. He helped the Spartans rank No. 2 in the Big Ten

(conference games) in rushing with a mark of 260.6 yards per contest. He was chosen as UPI’s Midwest Lineman of the Week against Purdue. He also played a key role in helping the Spartans rush for 334 yards in a 19-12 victory over No. 5 Ohio State. A three-year starter and two-time first-team All-Big Ten choice, he was part of an offensive line that

years, Dibble caught a total of 16 passes for 363 yards and five TDs. A third-round draft choice of the Detroit Lions, he starred as a receiver there from 1953-57.

Ellis Duckett was an All-America pick as a sophomore in 1952 as chosen by NBC-TV. The speedy receiver paced the squad with 10 receptions for 325 yards and five

TDs. Duckett broke the heart of Texas A&M by catching two passes for 127 yards and two scores in a 47-18 Spartan win. One of his catches was an 81-yarder, then the second-longest completion in MSU history. Duckett will be forever remembered for his blocked punt that he returned for a TD in the 1954 Rose Bowl that turned the tide in the Spartans’ favor (MSU trailed by a 14-0 margin at the time) en route to a 28-20 win over UCLA. He finished his career with 27 receptions for 575 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Billy Joe DuPree was an All-American as a senior in 1972 as chosen by Time Magazine. Playing in a run-oriented attack, he led the Spartans in receptions

with 23 for 406 yards. During his final campaign, he grabbed eight passes against Southern Cal, then tying for the second-highest total by a Spartan player in a single game, for 134 yards. He closed out his career in the No. 3 spot on MSU’s career reception list with 69. Chosen in the first round by the Dallas Cowboys in the 1973 NFL Draft, he enjoyed a fine 10-year pro career, earning all-league honors on three occasions.

Paul Edinger earned first-team All-America honors in 1998 from the All-American Football Foundation, the only all-star lineup selected after the

postseason bowl games. As a junior, he led the Big Ten and ranked third in the NCAA in field goals at 2.0 made per game. Edinger connected on a school single-season record 22-of-26 field-goal attempts (.846), including eight-of-nine field-goal tries from 40-plus yards. He converted a Spartan-record 13-straight field goals during a four-game stretch. The 5-foot-10, 175-pounder from Lakeland, Fla., tied the school’s single-game record for field goals with five each vs. Northwestern and top-ranked Ohio State. Edinger ranks among MSU’s all-time leaders in field goals made (third with 46) and scoring (seventh with 213 points). He was one of only four placekickers selected in the 2000 NFL Draft, going in the sixth round to the Chicago Bears.

A standout both as a return specialist and as defensive back, James Ellis was named to the Chicago Tribune Players All-America defensive team as a safety

both as a sophomore (1951) and junior (1952). During the 1951 season, he picked off six passes while returning 24 punts a total of 305 yards. He returned 10 kicks an average of 24 yards and turned in a 79-yard effort against Michigan, then the second longest in MSU annals. Ellis returned punts

Brandon Fields, a consensus All-America selection as a sophomore, led the nation in punting with his 47.9-yard average in 2004. The Toledo, Ohio, native earned

first-team All-America honors from the Associated Press, Football Writers Association of America (FWAA), Walter Camp, SI.com and Rivals.com. Fields, a first-team All-Big Ten selection by the league’s media panel and finalist for the Ray Guy Award, led the nation in punting for 12 weeks during the 2004 regular season, including the last 11 in a row. He hit 23 punts 50 or more yards and had 13 kicks downed inside the opponent’s 20-yard line. The 6-foot-6, 234-pound Fields averaged 51.0 yards on four punts vs. Wisconsin, including a 49-yarder that went out of bounds at the Badger 4 late in the third quarter. Fields averaged 54.0 yards on three punts vs. Ohio State, including a 62-yarder in the third quarter that was downed at the OSU 1-yard line. He averaged 55.7 yards on three punts vs. Illinois, including two kicks downed inside the Illini 20. Fields averaged 53.0 yards on four punts vs. Indiana, including a season-long 65-yarder, with two kicks downed inside the Hoosier 20. He averaged 55.3 yards on six punts vs. Central Michigan, including a 62-yarder. His 45.0-yard punting average ranks No. 2 on MSU’s all-time list and No. 3 in Big Ten history. Fields was selected by the Miami Dolphins in the seventh round of the 2007 NFL Draft.

Larry Fowler was an All-America pick his senior year in 1953 as chosen by NBC-TV. A member of the Spartans’ 1954 Rose Bowl team that fashioned a 9-1 mark along with a No. 3 national

ranking. Fowler, a three-time letterman, was one of the few MSU linemen to play both ways when two-platoon football was utilized in the college ranks.

One of the great receivers in MSU history, Kirk Gibson was an All-American as a senior in 1978 as chosen by United Press, The Sporting News, Football News

and the Newspaper Enterprise Association. Gibson hauled in 42 receptions for a team-high 806 yards, then No. 1 on the school’s seasonal list. He paced all Big Ten players in receptions (31) and receiving yards (613) in league outings. He turned in a pair of 100-yard receiving games in ’78, including a 146-yard performance (three catches) vs. Wisconsin, the high-water mark by a conference player that year. One of his catches was an 86-yard toss from QB Ed Smith, the longest pass play in the conference that season. His game-breaking speed helped the Spartans to a Big Ten co-championship and a No. 12 national ranking. He closed out his career as MSU’s all-time leader in receptions (112) and receiving yards (2,347). In addition, his 21.0 yards-per-catch average still ranks as the No. 1 mark in Spartan

helped Eric Allen rush for a then NCAA-record 350 yards vs. Purdue in 1971. Tabbed by Buffalo in the first round of the 1973 NFL Draft, he enjoyed a 14-year pro career, earning All-Pro honors on six occasions.

Don Dohoney was an All-America choice as a senior in 1953 as picked by the Associated Press, United Press, Collier’s, Look, The Sporting News, Football News,

Central Press, Newspaper Enterprise Association and NBC-TV. A captain of the ’53 Spartans, his play at defensive end helped the Spartans hold five of their nine regular-season opponents to less than 10 points. Dohoney drew acclaim for his performance against Minnesota and All-America back Paul Giel by holding him to just 23 rushing yards in 20 attempts in a 21-0 win. MSU posted a 27-1 won-lost slate during the three years that he lettered.

Al Dorow, who quarterbacked the Spartans to a perfect 9-0 record and the 1951 National Championship, earned First-Team All-America honors from the

International News Service. As a senior in 1951, Dorow completed 64-of-114 throws for 842 yards and nine TDs while producing wins over three ranked opponents: No. 17 Michigan (25-0 in Ann Arbor), No. 7 Ohio State (24-20 in Columbus) and No. 11 Notre Dame (35-0 in East Lansing). Facing a 20-10 fourth-quarter deficit at Ohio State, Dorow threw a 3-yard TD pass to Paul Ekker and scored on a 28-yard reception from Tom Yewcic on a fourth-and-6 play as the Spartans rallied to record their ninth-straight win, 24-20. He earned United Press International’s Midwest Back of the Week honors after completing 11-of-17 passes for 112 yards and two TDs in MSU’s shutout win over Notre Dame. Born Nov. 15, 1929, in Imlay City, Mich., Dorow earned three letters from 1949-51 for legendary head coach Clarence “Biggie” Munn. As a two-year starter at quarterback, he compiled a 17-1 career record, including back-to-back Top 10 finishes in 1950-51. The 6-foot, 175-pound Dorow won his last 15 starts in a row. He finished his collegiate career as Michigan State’s all-time leader in pass completions (125), pass attempts (259), passing yards (1,875) and touchdown passes (19). Dorow accounted for 26 total TDs, including four scoring runs and three TD receptions. After graduation, Dorow played football at Bolling Field Air Base in Washington, D.C., where he was voted top player in the Air Force Service in 1954. A third-round draft pick by the Washington Redskins in 1952, he spent seven years in the National/American Football League (Washington, 1954-56; Philadelphia, 1957; New York Titans, 1960-61; and Buffalo, 1962). Dorow made two Pro Bowl appearances (1956 and 1961) and led the AFL with 26 TD passes in 1960. In addition, he spent two seasons in the Canadian Football League, playing for British Columbia (1958-59) and Toronto (1959).

Dorne Dibble was an All-American as a senior in 1950 as selected by Look Magazine. A talented receiver, he stood out at the defensive end, helping MSU

history. Gibson was a standout as a baseball player as well, earning All-America honors in that sport, making him just one of three MSU athletes to earn that recognition in two sports. A No. 1 draft pick by the Detroit Tigers in 1978, he played on Detroit’s World Series championship team in ’84 and the Los Angeles Dodgers’ title team in ’88. In 1996, he was named to the MSU Centennial Super Squad

.

Ron Goovert was an All-America honoree as a senior in 1965 as chosen by Look Magazine. Though just 205 pounds, Goovert possessed solid instincts and

Coach Duffy Daugherty said of him, “I feel that Ron was the best college linebacker in the country. I wouldn’t have traded him for anyone.” In a key game against No. 6 Purdue, Goovert intercepted a Boilermaker pass attempt on PU’s first scoring threat while coming up with a key sack that helped lead to MSU’s winning TD in a tight 14-10 decision. Following his college career, he spent two seasons on the roster of the Detroit Lions.

Sonny Grandelius was an All-America selection his senior year in 1950 as chosen by the Associated Press, International News Service and Central

Press. Grandelius rushed for a then school-record 1,023 yards and 11 TDs on 163 carries, making him just the 17th back in the history of college football to crack the 1,000-yard mark. Grandelius recorded five contests of 100-plus rushing yards and his 184 yards against Oregon State stood as an MSU single-game record until 1962. The team’s leading scorer with 72 points (12 TDs), he was named the squad’s MVP. Career-wise, he rushed for 1,692 yards and his 6.1 yards per rush average is still fourth on the school’s list. Drafted by the New York Giants. In 1996, he was named a member of MSU’s Centennial Super Squad (Pre-Big Ten Era) in a poll conducted by the Lansing State Journal.

A three-year letterman, Roger Grove was honored by the All-America Board of Football in 1930. The 185-pound senior quarterback from Sturgis, Mich.,

led the Spartans to a 5-1-2 record. Grove gained a reputation as one of the Midwest’s top punters. He averaged nearly 40 yards per punt in a scoreless tie at Michigan. He scored on a 35-yard run in a 32-0 win over Cincinnati. Grove played perhaps his best all-around game in a 14-7 Homecoming victory over Colgate, returning a fumble 36 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter and intercepting a pass late in the fourth quarter. He helped control field position in a scoreless tie in the ’30 season finale, pinning Detroit inside its own 15-yard line several times. Grove also earned All-America honors as a basketball player, leading the Spartans in scoring as both a junior and senior. He became a five-year starter for the National Football League’s Green Bay Packers, playing halfback, quarterback and safety. As a rookie, Grove helped the Packers win the 1931 World Championship. A field captain, he ranked as the NFL’s second-leading receiver in 1933 with 17 catches for 215 yards.

Herb Haygood, who ranked ninth in the NCAA in kickoff returns with his 27.6-yard average, was named to the Walter Camp and CNNSI.com All-America

Teams. Haygood, the first kick returner ever to be selected for the Walter Camp All-America Team, led the NCAA in kickoff returns for three straight weeks, from Oct. 14-Nov. 3. The 6-foot, 190-pound wide receiver from Sarasota, Fla., was one of only four players in NCAA I-A football to return two kickoffs for touchdowns in 2001. Haygood scored on kickoff returns of 84 yards vs. Northwestern and 100 yards vs. Iowa. He became the first player in Michigan State’s 105-year football history to return kickoffs for scores in back-to-back games and his 100-yard runback against Iowa tied the Spartan record for longest return. His 1,770 career kickoff return yards rank second on MSU’s all-time list. Haygood was selected in the fifth round (No. 144 overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft by the Denver Broncos.

Clinton Jones claimed All-America status as a junior in 1965 as chosen by the Football Writers Association and in 1966 by the Associated Press, The

Sporting News, Central Press and the Newspaper Enterprise Association. As a junior, he rushed for a team-high 787 yards and 10 TDs. He recorded 74 points, which ranked 13th nationally. His 68 points in Big Ten contests placed him No. 1 among the league’s players and included a school-record tying four-TD game vs. Iowa. As a senior, he chalked up a team-leading 784 yards rushing and led the league in that department for conference contests (593 yards). Against Iowa, he set a then school and Big Ten record in rushing yards with 268, which included scoring jaunts of 79 and 70 yards. Drafted in the first round by the Minnesota Vikings in 1967.

Greg Jones earned consensus All-America honors as both a junior and senior, becoming the first Spartan to accomplish that feat in back-to-back

seasons since defensive end Charles “Bubba” Smith and roverback George Webster in 1965-66. As a junior, Jones led the Big Ten and ranked third in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision with 154 tackles. In 2009, he earned First-Team All-America honors from The Associated Press, Football Writers Association of America, American Football Coaches Association, CollegeFootballNews.com, Rivals.com, CBSSports.com and Phil Steele. In addition, Jones was named recipient of the 2009 Linebacker Trophy (National Linebacker of the Year) by the College Football Performance Awards. He also was recognized as the nation’s No. 1 linebacker by CollegeFootballNews.com. As a junior, Jones ranked third in the NCAA FBS in tackles per game (11.8), tied for 30th in sacks (0.69 per game) and tied for 51st in tackles for loss (1.08 per game). The 2009 Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year finished among the conference leaders in sacks (fifth) and tackles for loss (10th). His 154 tackles marked the seventh-best single-season total in MSU history. Jones led the team in tackles (154 total), tackles for loss (14.0 for 69 yards), sacks (9.0 for 53 yards) and production points (282) as a junior. He reached double-figure tackles nine times in 2009: Montana State (14), Central Michigan (career-high 15), Wisconsin (14), Illinois

(11), Northwestern (14), Iowa (12), Minnesota (12), Penn State (career-high 15) and Texas Tech (13). As a senior, the 6-foot-1, 240-pound Jones also became Michigan State’s ninth unanimous All-America selection and the first since wide receiver Charles Rogers in 2002. In 2010, he earned First-Team All-America honors from AP, Sporting News, FWAA, Walter Camp Football Foundation, AFCA, SI.com, CBSSports.com, Scout.com and Phil Steele. Jones was the only repeat selection from the 2009 AP All-America First Team. He became only the second Spartan player ever to earn AP First-Team All-America honors in back-to-back seasons, joining Webster (1965-66). Jones also became MSU’s seventh three-time first-team All-Big Ten selection and the first since punter Brandon Fields (2003, 2004 and 2006). As a senior, he led the Spartans in tackles (106), tackles for loss (10 for 20 yards), forced fumbles (3), quarterback hurries (6) and production points (219). Jones became the first Spartan to reach the 100-tackle milestone in three straight seasons since Percy Snow (1987-89). He also ranked among the Big Ten leaders in forced fumbles (tied for second) and tackles (seventh at 8.2 per game) as a senior. The 2010 team MVP anchored a Spartan defensive unit that ranked fifth in the Big Ten and No. 37 in the NCAA FBS in rushing defense, allowing 133.7 yards per game. A model of consistency, Jones led the team in tackles in 31 of the last 39 games and became only the second player in MSU history to lead the Spartans in tackles for four-straight seasons (linebacker Dan Bass, 1976-79). The 2010 team MVP closed out his collegiate career with a team-high eight tackles, including two for losses (2 yards), against No. 15 Alabama in the 2011 Capital One Bowl. Jones, who posted a season-high 14 stops in a 26-6 Homecoming victory over Illinois, was named National Defensive Player of the Week by the Walter Camp Football Foundation as well as Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week. He recorded eight tackles, including a season-best three for losses, in No. 24 MSU’s 34-24 victory over No. 11 Wisconsin. Jones, who recorded two interceptions, four tackles and forced a fumble in MSU’s 45-7 victory over Northern Colorado, was named Big Ten Co-Defensive Player of the Week. He tallied 11 tackles and forced a fumble in MSU’s 30-17 victory over Florida Atlantic at Ford Field. The Cincinnati, Ohio, native started 46 of 52 career games, including 40 consecutive starting assignments. Jones made 465 career tackles, including 46.5 for losses (160 yards) and 16.5 sacks (93 yards). He ranks among MSU’s all-time leaders in tackles for loss (second), total tackles (third) and sacks (sixth). Jones produced double-figure tackles 20 times in his career. He was selected by the New York Giants in the sixth round (No. 185 overall) of the 2011 National Football League Draft.

Steve Juday was an All-America choice as picked by the Associated Press his senior year in 1965. He completed 89-of-168 pass attempts (.530) for

1,173 yards, the first MSU QB to pass for over 1,000 yards in a season, and seven TDs. Juday engineered a potent MSU offense that registered a conference-leading 29.0 points per game while directing the 1965 Spartans to a national championship as voted by UPI. He closed out his career as the school’s all-time leader in passing yardage, pass attempts, pass completions and touchdown passes.

Sherm Lewis captured All-America status as a senior in 1963 as picked by the Associated Press, United Press, Central Press, Football Writers

Association and the New York News. Lewis rushed for 577 yards on 90 carries and was the squad’s leading receiver with 11 catches for 303 yards (27.5 avg.). Lewis was on the receiving end of what were then the longest two pass plays in Spartan history, an 88-yarder vs. Southern Cal and an 87-yard strike vs. Wisconsin (those rank 2-3 presently). In a game vs. Northwestern, he sprinted 87 yards for a TD, then the third-longest run in MSU history, and returned four punts 103 yards, earning him UPI’s Midwest Back of the Week honors. Named the team’s MVP in ’63, he finished third in the Heisman Trophy voting, making him just one of two MSU players ever to finish that high in the balloting. Lewis closed out his career No. 5 on the school’s career rushing list with 1,566 yards, No. 3 in total TDs (23) and third in total points (144)

Dean Look was named an All-American his senior year in 1959 by the Football Writers Association and Football News. After playing halfback his first two

seasons, Look made the switch to QB during fall drills of 1959. Despite being slowed by a shoulder injury early on, he was the only player in the country to be named to UPI’s Backfield of the Week three times for his efforts in contests vs. Notre Dame (first career start at QB), Purdue and Northwestern. Against the Wildcats, Look established a conference record for completion percentage by connecting on all seven of his attempts. He finished the year by completing 49 of 100 passes for 785 yards and nine TDs. MSU’s leading punter in ’58 and ’59, he was named the team’s MVP his senior year. A first-round pick of the Denver Broncos of the AFL, Look opted to sign a contract to play baseball with the Chicago White Sox.

Harold Lucas landed All-America recognition as a senior in 1965 as picked by the Newspaper Enterprise Association. From his middle guard position, he helped

the Spartans limit Big Ten foes to an average of just 34.6 rushing yards while leading the nation in rushing defense, allowing 45.6 yards per game. Lucas, who at the time was deemed the heaviest player ever to suit up for MSU at 286 pounds, was named Lineman of the Week twice, the first time by UPI following his effort against Ohio State and the second by AP after the Notre Dame game. He was the No. 2 pick of the St. Louis Cardinals in the 1966 NFL Draft.

Tony Mandarich was an All-American as a junior in 1987 by the Football News and then gained consensus All-America honors as a senior in 1988. A dominant

offensive lineman, he finished sixth in the Heisman Trophy voting and was among the top three finalists for the Outland Trophy. After missing the first three contests of ’88 due to NCAA suspension, he helped MSU average 268.8 rushing yards over the final eight regular-season games.

At 6-foot-6, 315 pounds, he did not allow any sacks during his final year and recorded well over 50 pancakes. He was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the first round (second player overall) of the 1989 NFL Draft.

Don Mason earned All-America distinction as a senior in 1949 as chosen by Paramount News and Football News. Along with Ed Bagdon, the pair

combined to make themselves one of the most feared blocking combinations in college football. Though small by today’s standards at 5-foot-10, 195 pounds, Mason was a durable and consistent performer on the offensive and defensive lines. In fact, former Michigan head coach Fritz Crisler said of Bagdon and Mason that “they are the best pair of guards ever to play at Michigan Stadium.”

A consensus All-American in 1955, Norm Masters was chosen by United Press, Look Magazine, International News Service, Newspaper Enterprise

Association, NBC-TV, Central Press and Fox Movietone. His hard-hitting tackles earned him the nickname “Stormin’ Norman.” Masters was a big reason that the Spartans allowed just 7.7 points per game, still fourth on the school’s season list. He was voted the recipient of the game ball against Stanford following a 38-14 win. Drafted in the second round by the Chicago Cardinals, he played for the Green Bay Packers from 1957-64.

Don McAuliffe was an All-America pick as a senior in 1952 as chosen by United Press, Collier’s, Football Digest, Paramount News and All-Catholic. McAuliffe, who ranked

eighth in the voting for the Heisman Trophy, tied for the top spot on the squad in scoring with 54 points on nine TDs while picking up 531 rushing yards in 98 attempts (5.4 avg.). One of his biggest plays came vs. Michigan when he rambled 70 yards for a score just after the underdog Wolverines had taken a 13-0 lead. The run was the turning point in a 27-13 MSU win. The recipient of the Walter Camp Trophy in ’52, he closed out his career with 1,180 yards on the ground and 20 total TDs, then No. 2 on the school’s all-time list.

Blake Miller was an All-America honoree his final year of competition in 1915 as chosen by the Atlanta Constitution. He, along with teammate Jerry DaPrato, were

the school’s first-ever All-America selections. A brilliant open-field runner, he earned a total of nine letters at Michigan State: four in football, three in baseball and two in basketball. Miller rushed for 115 yards in MAC’s 24-0 win over Michigan in 1915, prompting Wolverine head coach Fielding Yost to present him the game ball. He gained 83 of his 115 yards in the second half.

Writers Association, United Press, Newspaper Enterprise Association, Central Press, Football Coaches Association Kodak, Football Digest and NBC-TV. Kowalczyk paced the Spartans in rushing (545 yards) and scoring (54 points) and helped MSU post an 8-1 record. Nicknamed “The Sprinting Blacksmith,” Kowalczyk’s biggest rushing game that year was a 113-yard effort against Michigan. He scored TDs in eight of the team’s nine contests and was third in the voting for the Heisman Trophy. Finished his career with 1,257 rushing yards and a total of 17 TDs. Drafted in the first round by the Philadelphia Eagles in 1958.

The lone senior starter on the 1989 Spartan offensive line, Bob Kula’s leadership role helped develop that unit into one of the Big Ten’s finest by the

end of the year. A Kodak and Associated Press All-American, Kula started all 12 games at left tackle and aided the Green and White to a No. 21 spot nationally in rushing offense (217.6 ypg.). In addition, he opened holes for MSU backs who accounted for a conference-leading 37 rushing TDs. A durable performer, Kula started the last 36 games of his career. The Seattle Seahawks chose him in the seventh round of the NFL Draft in 1990.

An anchor on MSU’s defensive line during its national championship season of 1952, Frank Kush was an All-America pick as a senior by the

Associated Press, Look Magazine, New York News, Fox Movietone, Athletic Publications and All-Catholic. He started the ’52 season on the offensive line, but close calls in the first two games of the year prompted the Spartan coaching staff to move Kush back to his middle guard post. Combining excellent quickness and sound technique, he often disrupted opponent plays before they even got started. In a key game vs. Purdue, he recovered a fumble while his play helped limit the Boilermakers to just 31 rushing yards. He enjoyed a successful stint as head coach at Arizona State (1958-79) before coaching in the Canadian and National Football Leagues. He was inducted into the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame in 1995.

Earl Lattimer was an All-America choice as a senior in 1963 as picked by the New York News. After playing sparingly as a fullback his first two seasons,

Duffy Daugherty moved Lattimer to guard for the ’63 campaign. An all-around player who was a fine linebacker, he was named the Associated Press Lineman of the Week following a 30-13 shelling of No. 8 Wisconsin in which he helped the Spartans pile up 273 yards on the ground while holding the Badgers to just 29. Lattimer added to MSU’s scoring punch by booting three field goals including a then school-record 47-yarder on his first-ever attempt in a game vs. Northwestern. A crowd favorite, he often turned a somersault when running up to his spot on the offensive

line. He was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in 1964.

his way for 385 yards on 78 carries, at the time an MSU seasonal record for fullbacks, and converted 22-of-31 extra-point attempts. MSU’s leading scorer with 52 points, he was named the Associated Press Back of the Week after rushing for 91 yards and one TD in a 21-7 win over Notre Dame. Planutis was a solid performer in the MSU secondary and helped the Spartans to an 8-1 record, along with a No. 2 national ranking. He played in two Rose Bowls and picked up 66 yards on the ground in the 1956 contest.

Javon Ringer, who rushed for 1,637 yards and a school-record 22 touchdowns in 2008, became the first Spartan running back to earn consensus All-America

honors since Lorenzo White in 1987. As a senior, he earned first-team All-America honors from the Associated Press and Walter Camp Football Foundation. A Doak Walker Award finalist and first-team All-Big Ten selection, Ringer finished 10th in the final balloting for the Heisman Trophy. The 5-foot-9, 205-pound Ringer led the nation in scoring (10.2 points per game) and rushing TDs (22) while ranking fourth in rushing (125.9 yards per game) and 15th in all-purpose yards (157.8 ypg.). He led the Big Ten in scoring and all-purpose yards and ranked second in rushing. His 1,637 yards rank as the second-highest single-season rushing total in school history. Ringer became the first Spartan to record back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons since T.J. Duckett in 2000-01. He led the Big Ten in rushing for nine consecutive weeks (Sept. 14-Nov. 9) before being overtaken by Iowa’s Shonn Greene on the second-to-last weekend of the regular season. In fact, Ringer led the conference in rushing, scoring and all-purpose yards during that nine-week stretch. Ringer accounted for 97 percent of Michigan State’s rushing yards (1,637 of 1,692) and 76 percent of its rushing attempts (390 of 511) in 2008. He recorded seven 100-yard rushing games in 2008: Eastern Michigan (34 carries for 135 yards), Florida Atlantic (43 for 282), Notre Dame (39 for 201), Indiana (44 for 198), Northwestern (35 for 124), Michigan (37 for 194) and Purdue (32 for 121). Ringer had eight multi-TD games last season, including a career-best five scores vs. Eastern Michigan. Ringer became the first offensive player in Big Ten history to earn Player of the Week honors for three consecutive weeks (vs. Eastern Michigan, Florida Atlantic and Notre Dame). His 390 carries also led the nation – 23 more attempts than the second running back on the list. He recorded four of the six highest single-game carry totals in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision last season (career best 44 vs. Indiana, 43 vs. Florida Atlantic, 39 vs. Notre Dame and 37 vs. Michigan). Ringer ranks first on MSU’s all-time list in all-purpose yards (5,426), second in rushing yards (4,398) and fourth in rushing TDs (34; tied with Blake Ezor, 1986-89). His 4,398 career rushing yards rank No. 10 in Big Ten history. The Dayton, Ohio, native had 19 career 100-yard rushing games and 11 career multi-TD games. Ringer was selected by the Tennessee Titans in the fifth round of the 2009 National Football League Draft.

Andre Rison was an All-American as a senior in 1988 as selected by the Gannett News Service. The big-play wide out hauled in a team-high 39 receptions

for 961 yards that year and his 24.6 yards per catch ranks second on MSU’s all-time seasonal chart. In addition, he tied the school record for TD receptions with eight. He closed out his career by grabbing nine passes for a then school-record 252 yards against Georgia in the Gator Bowl.

greatest guard he had ever coached. Nystrom, a middle guard on defense, gave a sterling performance against Notre Dame, playing all 60 minutes in a 21-7 win over the No. 4 Irish. He was the first MSU football player to earn All-America recognition as both player and scholar, landing a first-team spot on the Academic All-America Team.

Julian Peterson, a first-team All-America pick by the Football News, produced a single-season record 30 tackles for losses (140 yards) in 1999, including

15 sacks (104). He earned Defensive MVP honors in the 2000 Florida Citrus Bowl after recording eight tackles, including five for losses (32 yards), vs. Florida. Peterson, who finished third on the team with 82 tackles in ’99, was one of 15 semifinalists for Defensive Player of the Year by the Football News. Despite playing only two seasons, the Hillcrest Heights, Md., native set a Spartan career record with 48 tackles for losses (215 yards). His 25 career sacks (161 yards) rank second on MSU’s all-time list. He was chosen in the first round (16th pick) of the 2000 NFL Draft by the San Francisco 49ers.

As a senior in 1938, John Pingel played 451 out of a possible 540 minutes while accounting for 1,127 yards and 12 touchdowns. Pingel rushed 110 times

for 556 yards (5.1 avg.) and five scores and connected on 54-of-101 throws (.535) for 571 yards and seven TDs. He also averaged 41.8 yards on 99 punts, and his 4,138 punting yards still rank as the NCAA single-season record. Pingel earned first-team All-America honors from The Associated Press, International News Service, Central Press, Newspapers Enterprise Association and Liberty Magazine. In Week 5, Pingel carried 19 times for 115 yards, including TD runs of 23 and 28 yards, and threw a 3-yard TD pass to Nelson as Michigan State knocked off previously unbeaten Syracuse, 19-12. In Week 8, he had three TD passes in a 20-14 victory at Marquette, including a 10-yard scoring toss to Jack Amon with less than two minutes remaining. Born Nov. 6, 1916, in Mount Clemens, Mich., Pingel appeared in 28 consecutive games from 1936-38 for Coach Charlie Bachman and helped the Spartans to a combined record of 20-6-2 (.750), including the school’s first-ever postseason bowl appearance (1938 Orange Bowl against Auburn). His likeness is preserved in one of the sandstone panels above the main entrance to Jenison Field House. Pingel became the seventh pick in the first round of the 1939 NFL Draft (held on Dec. 9, 1938) by the Detroit Lions. In his only season in the NFL, he started eight of nine games and produced 644 total yards and four TDs. Pingel completed 27-of-48 passes (.563) for 343 yards, three TDs and four interceptions. He gained 301 yards on 74 rushes and scored one rushing TD. Pingel ranked third in the NFL in punting with his 42.8-yard average (32 punts for 1,368 yards). He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1968 and the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame in 1973. Prior to MSU’s Sept. 18, 2010, home game against Notre Dame, Pingel’s name was added to Spartan Stadium’s “Ring of Fame.”

Gerald Planutis captured All-America recognition as a senior in 1955 as picked by Jet Magazine. The fullback bulled

Ralf Mojsiejenko earned All-America distinction as a junior in 1983 as picked by The Sporting News. One of MSU’s most dangerous weapons, he averaged 43.9

yards on 74 punts to rank fifth nationally. Included in his totals were career-high 71-yard punts vs. Notre Dame and Wisconsin. While he gained acclaim as a punter, he was a long-range threat when it came to field goals and boomed a 59-yarder (then tying the third-longest effort in Big Ten history) on the last play of the game that gave the Spartans a 29-29 tie at Purdue. In Big Ten performances, he produced a conference-leading 42.9 yards per punt. He still holds the school record in career punts with 279 and his average of 43.8 yards is No. 2 on the MSU all-time ladder. Chosen in the fourth round of the ’85 NFL Draft by San Diego.

Greg Montgomery was an All-American as a junior in 1986 by the Football Writers Association and as a senior in 1987 by the Football News and the Gannett News

Service. In 1986, he averaged 47.8 yards per punt, a mark that still ranks as an MSU seasonal record, and his 49.7 average in conference games is still the Big Ten standard. Among his efforts that year was a school record 86-yarder against Michigan. In 1987, he ranked fifth nationally in punting with a mark of 44.7 yards. During his career, he registered at least one punt of 50 or more yards in 33 of 35 outings. In addition, his career average of 45.2 yards ranks No. 1 on the school’s all-time list and is No. 2 on the Big Ten chart. He was chosen by the Houston Oilers in the third round of the ’88 NFL Draft. In 1996, he was named to the MSU Centennial Super Squad.

One of the country’s premier signal callers, Earl Morrall was an All-America selection his senior year in 1955 as picked by the Associated Press, Collier’s,

Look Magazine, International News Service, The Sporting News, Paramount News, NBC-TV, Hearst Syndicate and Frank Leahy. Morrall completed 42-of-68 passes for 941 yards, then tying the school record, and ranked among the top 10 in the nation in total offense with 1,047 yards. He averaged a nation-best 9.1 yards per play. He passed for a school-record 274 yards against Marquette, a mark that stood until 1969. No. 4 in the voting for the Heisman, he ranked No. 2 in the nation in punting with a 42.9 average. He concluded his MSU stint in the top spot in passing yards (2,015), and pass completion percentage. Chosen by the San Francisco 49ers in the first round of the 1955 NFL Draft, he enjoyed a successful 21-year pro career in which he played in four Super Bowls. In 1996, he was chosen as a member of MSU’s Centennial Super Squad.

Enterprise Association. The 6-foot-2, 239-pounder possessed exceptional strength and was nicknamed “Hercules” by his teammates. He was voted the Spartans’ most valuable player in ’69 and is the last offensive lineman to earn that honor. A three-year starter, he and his identical twin brother, Rich, earned Academic All-America honors, the first brother combo ever to achieve that distinction in the same year. Selected in the fifth round by the Houston Oilers in the 1970 NFL Draft, Saul went on to enjoy a 13-year professional career.

Scott Shaw was chosen as a first-team All-American by the Gannett News Service as a senior in 1997. Shaw started all 12 games at left guard and

helped the Spartans to a No. 24 spot nationally in rushing offense (199.5 ypg.). He also opened holes for MSU running backs who tallied 100 or more yards seven times during the season. At 6-foot-4 and 297 pounds, Shaw consistently earned the team’s top grade for pass protection, allowing only one sack all season. He was drafted in the fifth round by the Miami Dolphins in the 1998 NFL Draft.

Bill Simpson brought home All-America honors as a senior in 1973 as picked by The Sporting News and Universal Sports. Simpson spearheaded an exceptional

Spartan secondary that ranked No. 2 nationally in passing defense and No. 12 in total defense, intercepting a team-high five passes. He also ranked No. 2 in the Big Ten in punting (39.3 avg.). He recorded 64 tackles, tops in the MSU defensive secondary, including three touchdown-saving stops. A two-time first-team All-Big Ten honoree, Simpson was drafted in the second round by the Los Angeles Rams in 1974 (first defensive back chosen). In 1996, Simpson was named to MSU’s Centennial Super Squad in a poll conducted by the Lansing State Journal.

Another of MSU’s all-time greats, Bubba Smith brought home All-America recognition as a junior in 1965 as chosen by the American Football Coaches Association, and UPI before

being selected to nine different squads as a senior. During the ’65 season, he helped the Spartans rank No. 1 in the nation in rushing defense while playing a key role in holding Ohio State, Notre Dame and Michigan to minus rushing yards. At 6-foot-8, 280 pounds, his statistics of 30 tackles in 1966 (10 tackles for losses) don’t nearly represent his impact on opposing squads which either tried double- or triple-teaming him or running away from his side of the field. The UPI named him Lineman of the Year, and the Baltimore Colts made him the No. 1 pick overall in the 1967 NFL Draft. He went on to enjoy an eight-year pro career before being inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1988. In 1996, he was chosen to MSU’s Centennial Super Squad in a poll conducted by the Lansing State Journal. In June 2006, Smith was rated among the Top 10 Greatest Defensive Players of All-Time, according to lists compiled by CollegeFootballNews.com’s Pete Fiutak (No. 6) and Richard Cirminiello (No. 8). On Sept. 23, 2006, he became just the third player in Michigan State football history to have his jersey number (No. 95) retired.

Robaire Smith was named a first-team All-American by the Walter Camp Foundation following his junior season in 1998. He led the defensive line and was fourth on the team in tackles with

52 (23 solos, 29 assists) before suffering a broken leg in the first quarter against Ohio State Nov. 7. The 6-foot-5, 268-pounder from Flint, Mich., led the Spartans in tackles for losses with eight (22 yards) through the first eight games, including two-and-a-half sacks. He ended his MSU career with 38 tackles for losses and 22 sacks, fourth- and fifth-best in school history, respectively. He was chosen in the sixth round of the 2000 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans.

One of the most decorated MSU gridders of all time, Percy Snow was an All-America choice as picked by The Sporting News his junior year in 1988

and garnered first-team distinction in 1989 by the following entities: Kodak, Associated Press, United Press, Football Writers, Football News, The Sporting News and the Walter Camp Foundation. During the ’89 campaign, he became the first player ever to capture both the Butkus and Lombardi Awards. He led all Big Ten players in total tackles with 172, then an MSU record. He turned in 11 performances of double-digit tackling his senior year and notched 23 takedowns vs. Illinois. A three-year starter, he closed out his career with 473 tackles, No. 2 on MSU’s all-time list. He was a first-round selection (13th player overall) of the Kansas City Chiefs in the 1990 NFL Draft.

A four-year starter, Ray Stachowicz earned All-America honors as a junior in 1979 by the Football News and as a senior in 1980 by the Walter Camp

Foundation, Football News and the Newspaper Enterprise Association. He led the Big Ten in punting in 1979 (43.8 avg.) and in 1980 (44.6) in league contests and his overall average of 46.2 yards in ’80 was a Big Ten record and ranked him second nationally (he was fifth nationally in ’79). Of his 71 punts in 1980, 13 were 55 yards or longer, and of his 230 career attempts, 57 traveled 50 or more yards. Closed out his career as MSU’s and the Big Ten’s all-time leader in punting average (43.3). When he had completed his career with the Spartans, he owned the four longest punts in MSU history. Also, he became the first player ever to earn first-team All-Big Ten honors four consecutive seasons. Picked in the third round by the Green Bay Packers in 1981 NFL Draft.

Dick Tamburo brought home All-America distinction his senior year in 1952 as picked by the Associated Press, Central Press, Newspaper Enterprise Association,

International News Service, New York News, Football Digest and Paramount News. Named the Spartans’ MVP of the 1952 national championship season, he helped open holes for Spartan backs while playing a tough brand of defense which ranked No. 1 in the nation against the rush. One of his

dick tamburo #52 C | 6-1 | 200 NEW KENSINGTON, PA.

Career-wise, he holds the school record for both receptions (146) and reception yardage (2,992). He was taken in the first round by the Indianapolis Colts in the 1989 NFL Draft.

Charles Rogers was named a consensus All-American in 2002, earning first-team honors from the Associated Press, Football Writers Association of America,

American Football Coaches Association, Walter Camp, The Sporting News, ESPN.com, CNNSI.com and CBS SportsLine.com. The 2002 Biletnikoff Award winner caught a school-record 68 passes for 1,351 yards and 13 touchdowns as a junior. In 2002, Rogers became only the second receiver in MSU history to record back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons, joining Plaxico Burress who accomplished the feat in 1998-99. His receiving yards and TD catches represent the second-best single-season totals in Spartan history. Rogers led the Big Ten in receiving yards (112.6 per game) and TD receptions while ranking third in receptions (5.67 per game). He also ranked among the NCAA leaders in TD catches (third), receiving yards (eighth) and receptions (t-27th). Fifty-seven of his 68 receptions (84 percent) resulted in first downs. With his 21-yard TD reception in the second quarter vs. Northwestern (Sept. 28), Rogers set both NCAA and Big Ten records by catching a TD pass in his 13th-consecutive regular-season game and his 14th-straight game overall. The 6-foot-4, 205-pound junior from Saginaw, Mich., had six 100-yard receiving games in 2002, tying the single-season mark he set as a sophomore. He had a season-best 175 yards vs. Notre Dame (seven catches). Rogers finished his career ranked among MSU’s all-time leaders in touchdown receptions (first with 27), receiving yards (second with 2,821), yards per catch (second at 20.9), receptions (third with 135) and scoring (12th with 174 points). He produced a school-record 12 career 100-yard receiving games, including a Spartan single-game record 270 yards vs. Fresno State (10 receptions) in the 2001 Silicon Valley Football Classic. Rogers accounted for 3,108 career all-purpose yards and his 29 career touchdowns rank seventh on MSU’s career chart. He was selected No. 2 overall by the Detroit Lions in the 2003 NFL Draft.

George Saimes was tabbed as an All-American his senior year in 1962 by the AP, UPI, Football Writers Association, Football Coaches Association, New York

News, The Sporting News and CBS-TV. Saimes churned his way for a team-high 642 rushing yards and nine TDs and also registered three interceptions while serving as defensive captain. A two-time Spartan MVP and first-team All-Big Ten choice, Saimes’ big effort that year was a career-best 153 yards and three TDs on 13 carries vs. Notre Dame, earning him Midwest Back of the Week by UPI. He finished his college career with 1,253 yards on the ground while notching 18 touchdowns. Chosen in the sixth round of the 1962 pro draft by both the Dallas Texans (AFL) and the Los Angeles Rams (NFL), he earned All-Pro honors as a safety with the Buffalo Bills.

outstanding performances that year took place against Notre Dame when he recovered three Irish fumbles in the third quarter, one of which led to a TD in a 21-3 victory.

Brad Van Pelt was an All-America pick as a junior in 1971 by the Football News and United Press and was a consensus choice as a senior in 1972 including the

Associated Press, Walter Camp Foundation, United Press, The Sporting News, Time Magazine, American Football Coaches, Football Writers Association and Universal Sports. He helped the Spartans to a No. 2 ranking in the Big Ten in total defense by posting 92 hits, tops among MSU defensive backs, while picking off four passes, returning two of those for TDs (both vs. Oregon State). As a senior, he registered 84 hits and picked off four passes. His efforts helped the Green and White allow just 2.8 yards per rush, the benchmark in the league. He became the first defensive back ever to receive the Maxwell Award (symbolic of college football’s outstanding player) and was tabbed as college football’s defensive back of the year by the Columbus Touchdown Club. He closed out his career with 256 tackles and was No. 2 on the school’s career interception list with 14. He was drafted in the first round by the New York Giants in 1973. He played 14 years in NFL ranks and was an All-Pro selection on five occasions. He was named to the Lansing State Journal’s MSU Centennial Super Squad in 1996 and inducted into the MSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 2000, College Football Hall of Fame in 2001 and Michigan Sports Hall of Fame in 2002. Prior to MSU’s Sept. 18, 2010, home game against Notre Dame, Van Pelt’s name was added to Spartan Stadium’s “Ring of Fame.”

Sidney Wagner was an All-America choice as a senior in 1935 as picked by United Press, International News Service, New York Sun and Liberty Magazine. The

team captain in ’35, he became the fourth MSU player to earn major first-team All-America recognition. He helped MSU to a 6-2 won-lost slate and was part of the first back-to-back wins over Michigan, 16-0 in 1934 and 25-6 in 1935.

A two-time First-Team All-American and two-time First-Team All-Big Ten selection (1965-66), Gene Washington led the team in receptions for three-

straight seasons. A three-year starter for Coach Duffy Daugherty from 1964-66, Washington helped Michigan State to a combined record of 23-6-1 during his career, including back-to-back Big Ten and National Championships in 1965-66. During that three-year span, the Spartans posted a 17-3 record in Big Ten games. As a junior, Washington earned All-America honors from The Football News, Football Digest and Central Press. In 1965, he hooked up with quarterback Steve Juday to establish career bests in receptions (40) and receiving yards (638). Washington also tied for the Big Ten lead in TD receptions (four) while ranking second in receiving yards (544) and fifth in receptions (30). He earned Lineman of the Week honors from Sports Illustrated after catching three TD passes against Indiana, as MSU scored 17 fourth-quarter points en route to a 27-13 victory to clinch the Big Ten championship and a trip to the Rose Bowl. Washington had a game-high four receptions for 81 yards against

UCLA in the 1966 Rose Bowl. His 42-yard grab from Juday set up MSU’s first touchdown against the Bruins. As a 6-foot-3, 218-pound senior, Washington was utilized primarily as a blocker, as the 9-0-1 Spartans averaged 230.5 rushing yards. In 1966, he received First-Team All-America recognition from The Sporting News, United Press International and American Football Coaches Association. Washington caught 27 passes for a then school-record 677 yards and a career-best seven TDs. He averaged an incredible 25.0 yards per catch as a senior. Washington closed out his career as MSU’s all-time leader in receptions (102), receiving yards (1,857) and TD receptions (16). His 18.2 yards per catch still rank ninth on MSU’s all-time list. Washington had six career 100-yard receiving games. Washington was selected by the Minnesota Vikings in the first round (No. 8 overall) of the 1967 NFL Draft and became a two-time Pro Bowl selection (1969-70). He was inducted into the MSU Athletics Hall of Fame in 1992 and named to the Lansing State Journal’s MSU Centennial Super Squad in 1996. In 2011, Washington was elected for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame. Prior to MSU’s Oct. 22, 2011, home game against Wisconsin, his name will be added to Spartan Stadium’s “Ring of Fame.”

George Webster earned All-America acclaim his junior (1965) and senior (1966) years by the Associated Press, United Press, American Football Coaches

Association, Football News, the Newspaper enterprise Association and New York News while being named to the Football Writers, The Sporting News and Central Press teams his senior year. Webster revolutionized the position of roverback and helped MSU to a No. 1 ranking in the Big Ten in total defense in 1965 (No. 2 nationally, 169.9 ypg.) and 1966. As a senior, he posted 93 tackles, including 10 tackles for losses, and helped MSU rank No. 3 nationally in rushing defense. The Spartans’ MVP in ’66, he became just the second MSU gridder to have his jersey retired (No. 90). Drafted in the first round by the Houston Oilers in 1967, he played 10 years in the pro ranks. He was named MSU’s Greatest Player in a vote taken by Spartan fans in 1969. In 1996, he was chosen as a member of MSU’s Centennial Super Squad.

A key member of the legendary 1966 Spartan football team, Jerry West claimed All-America honors his senior year as picked by the Newspaper

enterprise Association. In Big Ten outings, West’s solid blocking enabled the Green and White to pace the conference in both rushing (223.2 ypg.) and in scoring (30.4 ppg.). One of the many fine performances for the 5-foot-11, 218-pounder that year came on a sloppy Ohio Stadium field when his pass protection skills helped QB Jimmy Raye pass for 68 yards during an 83-yard winning TD drive in an 11-8 win over the Buckeyes.

Lorenzo White captured All-America honors as a sophomore in 1985 as chosen by the Associated Press, United Press, Football Writers, The Sporting

News, American Football Coaches and the Walter Camp Foundation. As a senior in 1987, seven different agencies tabbed him as an All-American including Kodak, United Press, Football Writers, the Walter Camp Foundation and

Football News. In 1985, he finished fourth in the voting for the Heisman Trophy after rushing for a school and Big Ten seasonal record 2,066 yards. His 1,908 yards during the regular season at the time was the fourth-best single-season rushing total in the history of college football and the highest by a sophomore. He rushed for 200 or more yards on four occasions including a 286-yard effort vs. Indiana. During the ’87 season, White helped MSU to its first Rose Bowl since 1966 by rushing for 1,572 yards. His 132.6 rushing yards per game during the regular season ranked him No. 6 nationally. He rushed for 100-plus yards on seven occasions and established a school record for attempts in a game with 56 vs. Indiana while finishing that contest with a personal-best 292 yards on the ground and finished with school records in rushing yardage (4,887, then No. 2 in the history of Big Ten) and attempts with 1,082. In 1996, he was named to the MSU Centennial Super Squad.

Sam Williams was an All-American as a senior in 1958 as picked by UPI, Time Magazine, Football Coaches Association, and the New York News. After dropping out of MSU and serving a four-year

stint with the Navy, Williams emerged as a threat both offensively and defensively. A workhorse who averaged nearly 50 minutes per game, he caught a team-high 15 passes for 242 yards while wreaking havoc as a defensive end. A two-time first-team All-Big Ten pick, he served as the Spartan captain of the ’58 squad. He was credited with 13 solo stops against Michigan while Illinois and Purdue ran nearly all their sweep plays to the opposite side of the field. Drafted before he even participated in college (L.A. Rams in 1955), he played one season for the Rams before joining the Detroit Lions, where he played until 1966.

Tom Yewcic, the leader of the Spartan offense during their 9-0 season, gained All-America status as a junior in 1952 as selected by NBC-TV. He completed 41-of-95 passes for 941 yards, then a

school seasonal record, and 10 TDs. In his first game as starting quarterback, he drew acclaim after completing seven-of-14 passes for 171 yards in sparking a come-from-behind 27-13 win over Michigan. He became just the second Spartan QB to reach the 200-yard plateau in passing when he passed for 202 yards against Texas A&M. The owner of 17 career TD passes and 1,480 passing yards. He signed a pro baseball contract before entering the pro football ranks with Toronto of the CFL before joining the Boston Patriots, 1961-66.

miscellAneous AwArds

Don Coleman #78 George Webster #90

John Pingel #37John Hannah #46

Charles “Bubba” Smith #95

retireD JerseY numbers/ring of fameOnly four jersey numbers have been retired in the 113-year history of Michigan State football: No. 78 worn by All-America tackle Don Coleman, No. 90 worn by All-America roverback George Webster, No. 46 in honor of former MSU President John Hannah and No. 95 worn by All-America defensive end Charles “Bubba” Smith.

Spartan head coach Biggie Munn (1947-53) pulled Coleman’s No. 78 out of circulation in 1952. Munn called Coleman, a consensus All-American in 1951, “the finest lineman ever to play for Michigan State.” Coleman was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1975.

Webster, a two-time All-American, had his No. 90 retired by head coach Duffy Daugherty in 1967. “George Webster is not only the finest football player I’ve ever seen but he symbolizes our great 1965 and ’66 teams.” Webster was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1987.

Daugherty retired the No. 46 in 1969 as a tribute to Dr. Hannah, who stepped down after 46 years of service to the University including 28 years as its president (1941-69). Hannah championed Michigan State’s acceptance into the Big Ten Conference in 1949. Former Spartan head coach and athletics director George Perles said, “John Hannah is the greatest legend in the history of Michigan State. He is the person who made MSU the great school it is today.”

On Sept. 23, 2006, Smith became just the third player in Michigan State football history to have his jersey number (No. 95) retired. His jersey retirement was part of a special program to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the 1966 “Game of the Century” between the second-ranked Spartans and top-ranked Notre Dame that ended in a 10-10 tie.

Former Michigan State All-Americans and College Football Hall of Famers Brad Van Pelt and John Pingel had their names added to Spartan Stadium’s “Ring of Fame” prior to MSU’s 2010 home game against Notre Dame.

As MSU’s latest inductee into the College Football Hall of Fame (Class of 2011), Gene Washington’s name will be added to Spartan Stadium’s “Ring of Fame” at the Oct. 22 Homecoming game against Wisconsin. He will be inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame at the NFF College Football Hall of Fame’s 54th Annual Awards Dinner Dec. 6 at the Waldorf-Astoria in New York City. Washington joins Spartan legends Coleman, Webster, Hannah, Smith, Van Pelt and Pingel on the “Ring of Fame.”

Eric Gordon, a second-team All-Big Ten selection, ranked second on the Spartans in tackles (92) and production points (213) in 2010. Gordon started a school-record 49 career games, breaking the mark previously held by former tight end Chris Baker (47 career starts, 1998-2001).

Mark Dell set career highs for receptions (51), receiving yards (788) and touchdown catches (6) in 2010. Dell finished his career ranked among MSU’s all-time Top 10 in receiving yards (No. 6 at 2,136) and receptions (tied for No. 7 at 133).

Aaron Bates led the Big Ten and ranked No. 13 in the NCAA FBS in punting with his 45.0-yard average in 2010. Bates also went 2-of-2 passing as a senior, including a game-winning 29-yard TD toss to Charlie Gantt in overtime against Notre Dame.

Hollis was named athletics director-designate on Sept. 12, 2007, and teamed with Mason in the transition throughout the fall of 2007.

Hollis has more than 20 years of athletics administration experience, either at the school or conference level. His well-rounded background has led to his knowledge of all areas within an athletics department, including marketing, financial administration, television negotiations, fund-raising, game operations, facility management, personnel policy, corporate interaction, sports management and public relations.

Hollis, a 1985 MSU graduate, returned to his alma mater in 1995. Since then, he has been a critical component of the athletic department executive management staff, helping guide the department through short- and long-range plans. In addition, Hollis serves on the NCAA Men’s Basketball Issues Committee and acts as chairperson for the NCAA Amateurism Cabinet.

On the playing field in 2010-11, Michigan State had a record-setting year, winning five Big Ten Championships – the most in department history. The football team won a school-record 11 games and claimed the program’s seventh Big Ten Championship en route to participating in the 2011 Capital One Bowl, which marked MSU’s fourth-straight bowl appearance and second in the last three seasons on New Year’s Day. The baseball team won its first Big Ten title since 1979, while the women’s cross country, women’s basketball and women’s golf teams also won conference championships. Overall, 12 sports participated in their respective team NCAA Championships, while individuals competed in four more NCAA Championships.

In three-plus years with Hollis serving as the athletics director, Michigan State has proved to be one of the most successful athletic departments in the country, as the Spartans have already won 12 Big Ten Championships in addition to appearing in three bowl games and two Final Fours during his tenure.

In 2009-10, MSU finished 39th in the Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup standings, marking the 11th time in the past 12 years the department has placed in the top 40. Highlights included the men’s basketball team advancing to the Final Four for the sixth time in the last 12 years and winning its second-straight Big Ten regular-season title, field hockey capturing both the Big Ten regular-season and tournament championships, and the football team appearing in its third-straight bowl game.

One of Hollis’ major goals upon becoming athletics director was accomplished in 2010 when he unveiled the new brand and identity program for the athletics department. All of Michigan State’s uniforms now incorporate consistent use of colors, logos, lettering and numerals along with standardization for logos. Throughout the project, equal attention was devoted to maintaining an appreciation for the traditions of the past, while positioning the athletics program for the future. The brand and identity program for Michigan State Athletics was a result of nearly a two-year collaborative effort between the athletics department and Nike that included input from university and athletic administration, coaches and student-athletes.

During Hollis’ tenure, Michigan State student-athletes have excelled not only in competition, but in the classroom as well. In the spring of 2011, the athletic department posted the highest GPA in program history with a 3.0272; it marked the third time in the past four years the department has achieved a record GPA. The department also set another benchmark as 14 teams achieved a 3.0 or higher term GPA during the spring semester. Additionally, 238 student-athletes earned Academic All-Big Ten honors throughout the academic year.

In Hollis’ first full season as athletics director in 2008-09, Michigan State enjoyed one of its most successful years of the decade with a 27th-place finish in the Directors’ Cup, the best

showing for the department since 2003 and the third highest in the department’s history. Ten teams earned bids to their respective NCAA Championships, led by the men’s basketball team, which reached the national title game against North Carolina while also winning the Big Ten regular-season championship. In addition, the football team won nine games for the first time since 1999 and played on New Year’s Day in the 2009 Capital One Bowl, the men’s soccer team won the Big Ten regular-season and tournament championships, and the crew team won its second-straight Big Ten title. Individually, wrestler Franklin Gomez claimed the 133-pound national title.

During the spring semester of Hollis’ first year as athletics director in 2008, the men’s golf and women’s rowing teams claimed Big Ten Championships and the men’s basketball program reached the Sweet 16 for the seventh time in 11 years. This success propelled Michigan State to 29th in the Directors’ Cup standings.

Prior to his official appointment as athletics director, Hollis played a lead role in two significant head coaching searches during the 2006-07 year. He spearheaded the effort to hire Mark Dantonio as football coach, which has resulted in four consecutive bowl appearances for the program and a Big Ten Championship in 2010. He also provided major assistance in the hiring of women’s basketball coach Suzy Merchant in the spring of 2007, who led the Spartans to the Sweet 16 in 2009. Hollis’ first hire as athletics director arrived on July 2, 2008, when he tabbed Jake Boss Jr. to direct the Spartan baseball program; in just three seasons, Boss won a Big Ten title in 2011, the first for the program in 32 years.

Spartan athletic facilities have been upgraded at an unprecedented rate the past decade, and will only continue to improve under Hollis. In August 2008, the Spartans moved into one of the nation’s finest football facilities, as a $15 million expansion and renovation project for the Duffy Daugherty Football Building was completed. MSU alumni Robert and Julie Skandalaris of Bloomfield Hills, Mich., donated $5 million as the lead gift for the facility expansion and upgrade. The Skandalaris Football Center includes new team, staff and position meeting rooms, coaches’ offices and a hall of history. In addition, an expanded weight room was finished in September 2008 that increased the facility in size from 9,000 to 16,500-square feet. Also in 2008, the men’s and women’s soccer programs opened DeMartin Stadium, a state-of-the-art 2,500-seat facility that enables MSU to host conference and national tournaments. In the spring of 2009, the baseball program played its inaugural season in McLane Baseball Stadium following a $4 million donation to the 2,500-seat ballpark by former Houston Astros owner Drayton McLane Jr. This past year, with the help of a $1 million gift by alumnus Ambassador Peter F. Secchia – the largest cash (outright) gift received by an MSU women’s intercollegiate sports program – Secchia Stadium opened for the softball program in the spring of 2011, a 1,100-seat facility located at Old College Field.

As a senior associate athletics director, Hollis oversaw all external relations for the MSU athletics department. Included in this group are marketing and promotions, community relations, special event fund-raising, sports information, ticket operations, spirit groups, broadcast services and corporate sponsorships.

Hollis has been recognized by his peers as one of the best in the business. In 2002, he was named recipient of the National Marketer of the Year Award as selected by the National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators (NACMA). Under his direction, Michigan State has enjoyed increases in ticket revenues, including 10 years of sold-out football seasons and more than 200 consecutive sellouts in men’s basketball. He was successful in negotiating a $2 million donation to the university for the construction of the Berkowitz Basketball Complex, providing both the men’s and women’s basketball programs with one the nation’s top office complexes.

One of Hollis’ greatest strengths is his ability to “dream big” in an effort to create greater exposure, not just for the Michigan State Athletics Department but for Michigan State University as a whole. He conceptualized “The BasketBowl,” establishing a then-world record attendance of 78,129 for a basketball game

between Michigan State and Kentucky at Detroit’s Ford Field; MSU earned net revenues of $1 million from the event. The concept of placing the court in the middle of the field in a domed stadium has been used by the NCAA at the past three Final Fours. Similarly, he executed the “Cold War” ice hockey game between Michigan State and Michigan, drawing a then-world record crowd of 74,554 to an outdoor hockey game in Spartan Stadium.

Another one of Hollis’ ideas will come to fruition on Nov. 11, 2011 – Veteran’s Day – when the Michigan State men’s basketball team takes on North Carolina in the “Carrier Classic” in San Diego, Calif. Hollis has been instrumental in the planning and implementation of the event, which will be the first NCAA basketball game to be played aboard an aircraft carrier.

On Oct. 13, 2005, Michigan State University and WJR - 760 AM announced a five-year agreement to carry Spartan football and men’s basketball games, along with coaches’ radio shows. The successful partnership led to the announcement on Jan. 19, 2010, of a 10-year extension through 2020. Hollis played a leading role in finding MSU athletics a home on the 50,000-watt Detroit radio station, known as the “Great Voice of the Great Lakes.” The agreement has benefited more than just athletics as WJR regularly promotes the academic accomplishments of the university in addition to broadcasting sporting events.

In this era of college athletics, Hollis also excels in his relations with corporate partners. During his time guiding the office, the athletic department’s annual sponsorship revenue billing increased from $350,000 to nearly $3 million. He developed an innovative sponsorship relationship with Nike for footwear, apparel and licensing resulting in cash payments to the university and product for all athletic programs.

Hollis also understands the importance of television broadcasts and other multi-media outlets for promoting the athletic department and the University. Through a combination of innovative strategies and personal relationships with ESPN, ABC and CBS television, he has increased Michigan State’s television exposure by 60 percent for football and men’s basketball. His background in the field allows Hollis to better understand how to use the Big Ten Network to provide national television exposure for each one of MSU’s varsity sports, and how to combine athletics with the academic mission of the university. Understanding the importance of the Internet in today’s world, he negotiated an Internet agreement that has MSU ranked consistently in the national Top 20 with more than 2.1 million page views monthly.

Prior to returning to Michigan State, Hollis spent two years at the University of Pittsburgh as assistant and associate athletic director. Before his stint at Pitt, Hollis worked for the Western Athletic Conference. He joined the WAC as an administrative assistant immediately after college. Two years later, he was appointed assistant to the commissioner and soon thereafter was promoted to assistant commissioner.

Hollis earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in communication from Michigan State in 1985, where he served as a basketball team manager under Jud Heathcote. In 1992, he earned his MBA in business administration from the University of Colorado.

He and his wife Nancy, have a daughter, Katy, and two sons, T.R. and Michael.

rySpartan StadiumSpartan Stadium is in its 88th season as home to Michigan State football. Since its opening in 1923, Michigan State has won 69 percent of its games played in Spartan Stadium.

Spartan Stadium represents a tribute to Michigan State’s football past and a vote of confidence in its future. A $64 million expansion project completed prior to the start of the 2005 football season features the addition of nearly 3,000 seats, including 24 suites and a 193-seat press box, bringing the current stadium capacity to 75,005. “The Spartan” statue has been relocated to the atrium of the new structure. The 200,000-square-foot addition also houses the MSU Alumni Association, University Development and other units. The MSU Board of Trustees approved the major addition and expansion project of Spartan Stadium in September 2003.

Barton Malow/Clark served as the construction manager for the Spartan Stadium expansion project, with HNTB providing architectural services.

Following the June 26, 2011, U2 “360º” concert, the entire playing surface in Spartan Stadium had to be replaced. The new playing surface, planted in April 2010 at Graff’s Turf Farms in Fort Morgan, Colo., is comprised of a blend of four varieties of Kentucky bluegrass. The installation of the new sod, transported to Spartan Stadium in 26 refrigerator trucks, took three days (July 12-15).

Spartan Stadium, which officially opened in 1923 at its current location, featured a natural grass playing surface until artificial turf was installed in 1969. The stadium returned to natural grass for the 2002 season. In 2005, the natural grass playing surface in Spartan Stadium earned Field of the Year honors from the Sports Turf Managers Association (STMA).

Prior to the 2002 season, ESPN.com’s Mel Kiper Jr. ranked Spartan Stadium No. 8 on his list of the nation’s most scenic venues.

Natural grass returned to Spartan Stadium in 2002 after a 33-year absence, with the installation of a modular field. The new playing surface, planted in May of 2001 at MSU’s Hancock Turfgrass Research Center, is comprised of a blend of nine varieties of Kentucky bluegrass. The original switch from natural grass to artificial turf came in time for the 1969 season.

Since 1957, capacity crowds have attended 154 games in Spartan Stadium, including the single-game record 80,401 fans who witnessed MSU’s 20-19 loss to top-ranked Notre Dame on Sept. 22, 1990. The Spartans have ranked among the NCAA’s top 25 in attendance each of the last 55 seasons, including 19th in 2009, averaging 73,556 fans per game.

Season-ticket sales have topped the 60,000 mark five times in Spartan football history, with an all-time record 61,479 season tickets purchased in 2000.

A series of projects paralleling the Spartans’ rise to national football prominence enlarged the steel-and-concrete facility from its original 14,000 seats in 1923 to its present size in 1957.

The first came in 1935, the year in which the stadium was officially named Macklin Field, boosting the capacity to 26,000. The 1948 enlargement raised the total to 51,000.

After 9,000 new seats upped the capacity to 60,000 in 1956, the upper decks were added to the east and west stands in 1957, bringing the capacity to 76,000. It also became Spartan Stadium that year. Renovations during the summer of 1994 improved sightlines and comfort for fans, while reducing the capacity to 72,027.

On Oct. 6, 2001, Spartan Stadium added another chapter to its storied history as a world-record crowd of 74,554 attended the MSU-Michigan outdoor hockey game.

Prior to the 1998 season, a Mitsubishi Diamond Vision was installed in the south end zone and a new scoreboard and black and white message board were added to the north end zone. The CRT video display measures 21 feet x 27 feet and it is operated from a digital production control room in the Breslin Center. The video display board shows live game action, replays and special features. In addition, a concert-quality 50,000-watt sound system was installed.

In 1998, Spartan Stadium celebrated its 75th anniversary plus it reached another milestone that season when it played host to its 400th game, a 29-5 MSU victory over Northwestern on Oct. 31.

Michigan State has compiled a 327-142-13 record (.692) since taking up residency in Spartan Stadium (formerly Macklin Field) in 1923. With its 35-31 come-from-behind win over Purdue in the 2010 home finale, Michigan State completed its first-ever 7-0 home season and its first undefeated home season since going 6-0 in 1999. The Spartans have gone undefeated at home 17 times since the stadium opened in 1923. With its 49-14 victory over No. 4 Wisconsin in the 2004 home finale, Michigan State recorded its 300th win in Spartan Stadium.

In addition, Michigan State has suffered only one home loss during a season 28 times. Only nine times in the history of the stadium have the Spartans experienced a losing record at home.

Michigan State’s longest home winning streak is 19 games from Oct. 14, 1950, through Nov. 21, 1953.

THE BCS IS:The Bowl Championship Series (BCS) is a five-game showcase of college football. It is designed to ensure that the two top-rated teams in the country meet in the national championship game, and to create exciting and competitive matchups among eight other highly regarded teams in four other bowl games.

It has been undeniably successful in achieving those goals. Thanks to the BCS, the top two teams have played each other 13 times in 13 years by BCS measurements and 10 times in the last 13 according to the AP poll – including the last seven years in a row. Additionally, it has provided more access to the major bowls for all eleven conferences, more television exposure, and more postseason revenue than ever before.

The BCS allows for preserving the significance of the regular season, which is the most meaningful in sports. It also maintains the bowl system to the benefit of dozens of universities each year.

The bowl games participating are the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Discover Orange Bowl, Rose Bowl Game presented by VIZIO, Allstate Sugar Bowl and the BCS National Championship Game, which is played each year at one of the bowl sites.

The BCS is managed by the commissioners of the 11 NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (“FBS”) (formerly Division I-A) conferences, the director of athletics at the University of Notre Dame, and representatives of the bowl organizations. The conferences are Atlantic Coast, Big East, Big Ten, Big 12, Conference USA, Mid-American, Mountain West, Sun Belt, Pacific-12, Southeastern and Western Athletic.

The conference commissioners and the Notre Dame athletics director make decisions regarding all BCS issues, in consultation with an athletics directors’ advisory group and subject to the approval of a presidential oversight committee whose members represent all 120 FBS programs.

The five BCS games are part of the overall bowl structure. All bowl games provide meaningful season-ending opportunities to teams.

As one conference commissioner said, “The celebration that occurs among the student-athletes, coaching staff and fans at the end of each bowl games is an indication of the importance of all bowl games.”

The BCS places great premium on the regular season of college football.

“Football weekends are an important ingredient in the overall college experience – going well beyond simply what occurs in the athletics department,” said BCS Executive Director Bill Hancock. “A significant amount of the revenue that supports all athletic programs is generated by regular-season football. And so it is important that the regular season remains strong and vibrant.”

The top two teams were matched in bowl games only eight times in the 56 years before the BCS and its predecessors (the Bowl Coalition and Bowl Alliance) were created. In those days, conferences were contractually obligated to certain games and there was no flexibility to attempt to match the top teams.

The 11 BCS conferences have a contract with ESPN to televise the games through the 2013-14 season.

REvEnuE SHaRIng

The share an automatic qualifier from one of the five non-AQ conferences will be approximately $26.4 million. (Those conferences have elected to divide the revenue among themselves according to a formula they have devised.) If no team from the non-AQ conference participates, those conferences would receive approximately $22.3 million. Each conference whose team qualifies automatically for the BCS receives approximately $22.3 million in net revenue. The share of each team selected at-large by one of the bowls will be $6.1 million. Notre Dame

will receive $6.1 million if it participates in a BCS game; its share will be $1.8 million if it does not. If Army, Navy or BYU becomes an automatic qualifier or is selected at-large, it will receive $6.1 million; if not selected, each will receive $100,000. Each NCAA Football Championship Subdivision conference will receive $250,000.

EConomIC ImpaCT

The total economic impact in the host cities from the five BCS games in January 2010, was estimated at more than $1.2 billion.

a woRd aBouT a playoff

The NCAA membership has not voted for the creation of a playoff. Given that context, the conferences created the BCS in order to match the top two teams in a bowl game while maintaining the importance of the regular season and preserving the bowl system.
