MSU Red Cedar Message Board

I don't know specifically but that very well may be true. Tressel was really the OC/QB coach. He micromanaged so many parts of the team that no one really knew the extent of until he was gone.

Judging from the reactions, wondering if maybe we should have hired Tress and taken the show clause. I'm kidding. I think I'm kidding.

He cannot possibly be worse than roushar in calling plays, so in that regard, it must be an upgrade.

The recruiting rumors are disappointing. I'm quite sure MSU hired him on the cheap, it's how we've always operated.

Over/under on minutes until we have a Fire Bollman thread?

I like the hire, he has lots of connections in OH and experience in the B1G. question is can he close the deal on high end recruits? having a nice shiny NC ring doesnt hurt and Rushar wasnt tearing it up on the recruiting trail either. Give the man a chance and we will see... I thought for sure Salem was going to get the job.

Wow, the response is just brutal. This looks like a questionable hire, wtf? I would have rather gotten a young up and coming innovator. This is disappointing and we're going to get ridiculed in the media for this hire.

I hope MD made a good choice though and the team wins 11 games next season, that will shut everyone up.

So you're ignoring the fact that everyone is laughing at this hire? Please show me some tweets just anything where someone other than a poster blowing sunshine for upvotes says this is a good hire? I can tell just by looking at the dude that he will never recruit a 4 or 5 star kid.

No need for personal attacks, Wannabe Rod. ;)

You don't think it's a little premature to declare the reason we hired Bollman was because the Admin wouldn't pony up enough money for Tedford or Belichek or the Zombie Lombardi?

I was taught that if you dont have something nice to say, then dont say anything at all......

Go green, hope coach D found his guy.

Anybody remember that he was the offensive line coach on Nick Saban's MSU staff? I recall a "meet the coaches" event in Saginaw soon after Saban's appointment that one of the main topics of conversation was what a tough job the new offensive line coach was facing. When he left for Ohio State three or four years later the line situation at MSU was much stronger.

Anyone else considering this is an intentional false leak? Either by the AD or
by a big time booster?

Throw out a name that has been tossed around, get overall negative reaction, helps get leverage in going out and spending $$$ on a bigger name?

Good i hope its just a false alarm. Msu needs a young energetic guy like Nardawg on the offensive side of the ball. One who can recruit, not an old school guy, he will never get high end talent.

One can only hope.
