A little over a decade ago, Mark Dantonio led Michigan State football to the Rose Bowl where they capped off a special 13-1 season with a lone loss to Notre Dame.
Max Bullough was on that team as a captain, but Dantonio held him back from the Rose Bowl because he broke team rules, but nothing ever came to light about that situation. You know it tore Bullough up to miss the Rose Bowl after working his entire career to get to that point, but the linebacker just put his head down and worked toward his NFL future.
