East Lansing — As Brad Salem walks into a meeting room at the Duffy Daugherty Football Building, he’s exactly where he’s supposed to be.
It’s late May, but Michigan State’s offensive coordinator is busy, taking advantage of a break from recruiting to pore over some game film, working on breathing some life into a Spartans offense that has had little the last couple of seasons.
He’s a football coach, and there’s really nothing else he was ever going to be.
Yes, he played football growing up, and when he went to college, he majored in secondary education with the idea he’d be a high school teacher.
