So, my guess is that ARJ is a physical issue, and that is private info that they cannot give out. Love the kid, and I wish the best for him. He is an inspirational dude.

Do linemen run the same conditioning test as skill positions?

Whoa, is this the first time in the Dantonio era that less than 90 percent of the roster passed the fitness test?

IIRC, they all run half gassers, but the skill players have to run more of them than the linemen.
Michigan State does not and will not run the 3-4 defense.

No. Dantonio said it's usually around 90-percent and this was pretty standard.

Totally agree GB. . . I only hope it is not a serious health issue. ARJ has a lot of living and important things to do in the future. His legacy in Spartan lore is already as strong as it ever could be.

This is a hot topic on Twitter. Dantonio is being made to look like a heel that he does not have a kid who battled and recovered from cancer on his 105 man roster. We as Spartan fans know different.
