Mark Dantonio says he’ll ‘make changes’ at Michigan State but won’t elaborate

Lansing – During his presentation Friday at the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association Clinic at the Lansing Center, Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio talked about change being inevitable.

However, more than three weeks after the Spartans’ season ended with a victory in the Pinstripe Bowl, there has been no indication Dantonio is planning to make any adjustments to his staff. Following his presentation, he refused to speak to reporters, further prolonging the guessing game.

Walking out of the room on Friday holding a whistle he used in his presentation, Dantonio remained silent, as he has been ever since the season concluded with a second straight 7-6 record and an offense that ranked among the worst in the nation, a trend that has continued since Michigan State reached the College Football Playoffs in 2015.
