Michigan State football fans finally have a reason to smile. Not only did the Spartans hire a proven head coach with Big Ten experience and a hunger to revive his career, but they just watched their rival fire its head coach, with cause, on Wednesday evening.
Following some wild internet rumors, Michigan decided to fire head coach Sherrone Moore, putting the Wolverines way behind the eight ball in terms of the coaching carousel.
Any Michigan fan would tell you that this is a disaster.
Obviously many wanted to move on from Moore after two ho-hum seasons (compared to the previous run by Jim Harbaugh), but no one was expecting the firing to come this late and with all the other good coaches scooped up by Power Four programs.
