East Lansing — It might not have been the name Michigan State fans were hoping for, but in promoting quarterbacks coach Brad Salem to offensive coordinator, Mark Dantonio turned to a coach who’s got a track record of not only running an offense but developing players.

The move was part of a reshuffling to Michigan State’s offensive staff as Dantonio revealed on Thursday that Salem was taking over for Dave Warner and Jim Bollman, who had been co-offensive coordinators since 2013.

“I think that he's got a very innovative, creative mind,” Dantonio said of Salem.
