It's likely there won't be a new head football coach at Michigan State University until sometime early next week, multiple sources with knowledge of the search told the Free Press.

The plan is to have the coach in place before the MSU Board of Trustees meets on Valentine's Day, the sources said.

MSU began searching for a football coach after Mark Dantonio retired Tuesday, ending a 13-season run that included three Big Ten titles, a Rose Bowl win, a College Football Playoff berth and 114 wins that made him the program's winningest coach all-time.
