JDMSU said: "MD should go ?"
I think not - Yeah go root for UofM, as true MSU Fans we support till the end, with the exception of a few bad apples, Mark Dantonia atleast shows some pride and effort and gets pissed when things go wrong, unlike Smith who smiled, threw his hands in the air and Bobby ran scared..
MD is a great step in the right direction for this football program, he has a young team who are not as experienced going down to the wire.

No, it speaks volumes about the state of its "fans." You, sir, can go root for the Wolverines.
