I think it is terrible junior tailback Dawan Moss has been let back on to the football team. While I agree that Bobby Williams should have been fired, it was improper for the university to reverse his decision.

Bloomington, Ind. - After four straight blowout losses, the indefinite suspensions of two team captains and the firing of former head coach Bobby Williams, the MSU football team took out its frustrations on Indiana.

When the news of Bobby Williams’ firing reached the West Coast, I was stunned, yet delighted. My excitement does not stem from a personal disliking for Williams, but rather a shared interest in the MSU football program with more than 40,000 other students and countless alumni. The fact of the matter is Williams’ success, or lack thereof, cannot be compared to former football head coaches George Perles or Nick Saban, because of the different circumstances. This was the year, and MSU was finally back on the map, a preseason outside pick for the national title. The only thing more upsetting than this season’s performance is the ridiculous allegations that came from MSU Trustee Joel Ferguson, who, despite what his own feelings might be, does not run MSU. I know, I ran against him for the Board of Trustees while I was still a student. Ferguson went too far; to even hint that Williams’ termination had anything to do with race is pathetic and shames Williams and all he has given to MSU. Williams was fired after an evaluation based upon the content of his character and not the color of his skin. The reason he was fired is because MSU football is a joke - a punchline across the nation.
