@footballscoop: Sources tell us Jim Bollman is expected to accept the Michigan State OC job
So. There's that.
For those of you who don't know, Bollman was Tressel's OC from 2001-11.

Just end the thread. No comment shall be funnier than this.
I wonder how many points this would have gotten on the old voting system..
Can't say I blame him given the upgrade in terms of the school and position, but a bit of douchy move
Jerry Montgomerey did the same thing ti IU with us.
There is a slight difference between position coach and coordinator. I still don't think it's something to condemn him over, but those two situations aren't really comparable.
The fact that he was only at Purdue for a very short time makes him easier to replace, not harder. Also, is there really a better time of year to leave?
How long did Purdue think they were going to keep OSU's former OC as a position coach? In all seriousness, if I am Purdue's head coach and one of my position coaches gets offered the OC job at a better program for 2x-3x the salary, I'm not asking him to stay. I'd tell him he'd be a fool not to take it. Hazell, Dantonio and Bollman all worked together at OSU. I'd be very surprising if this move caused any hard feelings among the coaching staffs.
Eating is murder.
Purdue suddenly got better while MSU actually regressing offensively.
I had to get up and close the office door I was laughing so uncontrollably when I read this. I'm still laughing.
Just like the old joke:
A student flunks out of Michigan and enrolls at OSU. And the average GPAs at both schools went up.
Only missed one game at the Big House since 1979.
...a Mike DeBord in their lives.
Adams Axiom: The major difference between something that might go wrong and something that can not possibly go wrong is that when a thing that can not possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
...but, but it's suppossed to be Tressel himself.
They replace a shitbag with another shitbag.
I can't wait until MSU plays Iowa, should be a barn burner.

I like that Mark Dantonio has gone out of his way to ensure years of Sparty Nos.

Does this mean that out routes will develop even slower for Michigan State now? I would also enjoy seeing the amusing return of the slowly developing inside run for no gain, as well as a smattering of false starts. If you're going to hire Bollman, hire classic Bollman. In any case, I expect State to have the most practiced punter in the Big Ten now - he'll get more than his fair share of chances now.

All hail Jim Bollman,
Beat out other candidate,
A jar of pickles.
Jim Bollman was the most wildly incompetent OC in the B1G. They suceeded because they recruited great athletes and Tressel called the plays. Bollman called their plays in 2011 and I can only hope the lulz extend to East Lansing.
Wow.
Bollman - explosive OSU athletes = ???
WOTS is Maurice Clarett will be MSU's new running backs coach.
He's also rumored to be in line for the positions of Bushwacking Guide and Bartender.
If they also hire osu's recruiting classes he could be in good shape

Drake Harris, come on down! You'll want no part of that offense. Go Blue!
Hahaha of course they did. I hope RCMB is starting up the "Bring back Roushar" threads right now...
Intensity is a lot of guys that run fast.
Great hire for every other team in the Big Ten.

God, I fucking love nepotism when it absolutely destroys and embarasses your rival.
The most MSU move ever.

At least they can keep the same playbook.

Probably not a bad hire for them. When you're a small program, you kinda have to take what you can get.
Every time an MGoBoard poster complains about a thread topic, God kills a baby panda.
If you don't have twitter, now is a good time to get an account... Here's a sample of the internet reaction:
Matt Hinton @MattRHinton: Mark Dantonio, world's most boring sadist.
Adam Rittenberg @ESPN_BigTen: Um, alrighty then RT @footballscoop: Sources tell us Jim Bollman is expected to accept the Michigan State OC job
EDSBS @edsbs: The wildlife conservationist in me thanks Mark Dantonio for opening his walrus preserve. The football fan in me is horrified."

to downgrade from Roushar. hahaha
Whatcha gonna do, little brother?
Is putting the band back together. Next, he will hire Tressel as a football "consultant" with a pay scale that makes him ostensibly Dantonio's head coach. The transformation will be complete.
TROLOLOL.
Thought maybe will all the investments they've made in their facilities (WOO BIG SCOREBOARDS FOR MORE ADS!) they would shell out for a decent OC. Pleased as punch to find that's not the case.
Your move Urb...
Janeane Garofalo (Film Actors Guild): "As actors it is our responsibility to read the newspaper, and then say what we read on television like it's our opinion"
Hahaha, this is awesome. Only MSU would hire an awful coach solely because he's an OSU guy.
This pleases me.
Your friendly neighborhood contrarian.
Aaaaahahahahahahahahahahahah
This is the most hilarious hire ever. Stupid Sparty
Call Mr. Plow, that's my name, that name again is Mr. Plow
Not sure it gets better than this. MSU should just buy their OCs in bulk at Costco to save them some money.
The swag is back.
3 yards and a cloud of felonies.
