EAST LANSING – Danton Cole has his share of different hockey coaching jobs.
There have been stops in Grand Rapids, Muskegon, Grand Rapids again, Fraser, Bowling Green, Ohio, Huntsville, Alabama, and Ann Arbor. Now, he has his dream job:
Head coach, Michigan State University – his alma mater.
Cole, 50, who was born in Pontiac and grew up in Lansing, was named the Spartans’ new coach at a press conference on Tuesday afternoon at the Huntington Club at Munn Arena.
Three years into his coaching career, it was suggested by a member of the media that maybe someday Cole would be coaching the Red Wings.
