Coach Mark Dantonio has slowly assembled his program at Michigan State. He learned from some of the best..... coached under two championship coaches, Jim Tressel at Ohio State and Nick Saban (as an assistant coach) at Michigan State. Also he was a Graduate Assistant under Earle Bruce at OSU. Now, he has his team poised for championships that includes a 2015 Big Ten Championship! His Michigan State Spartans made it to the College Football Play-offs, and #Spartan Nation has taken another huge stride!
