Dantonio-Hecklinski incident at MHSFCA clinic today
This morning at the Michigan High School Football Coaches Association clinic, there was a session on recruiting. Dantonio, Michigan Recruiting Coordinator Keff Hecklinski, Wayne State's coach and a few D3 coaches were on the speaking list. The session was to help high school coaches understand how colleges recruit and what to expect.
Dantonio got up and spoke about their season, Cousins, BK Cunningham and MSU. Hecklinski got up and presented how Michigan sets up their recruiting-recruit the state of Michigan first, then the Midwest, and then nationally.
Dantonio then burst in, interrupts Hecklinski and yells, "We're not here to listen to this. Move on!"
Many coaches in the room were stunned and many lost respect for State and Dantonio because of the incident. To Hecklinski's credit, he didn't add to the childish behavior and represented Michigan with class and honor.
Most coaches were stunned but the jealous, anger-filled behavior turned a lot of people off. Other coaches on the panel were visibly bothered by this unprofessional behavior.

The reversal, over at RCMB, is fantastic.
The Red Cedar Message Board reaction is enough to snap your neck, like a Tom Gholston personal foul.
The first reaction was to deny the story as a fabrication by MGoBlog. Dantonio would not have done such a thing. Followed by confirmation of the story from multiple sources, then publication on MLive.com and then... The new spin, which is that of course it is what Dantonio should have done -- give it right back to Hecklinski, who was clearly out of line and who provoked the whole thing.

Who is this Charboneau
Who is this Charboneau
Who is this Charboneau guy that wrote that? It's pretty subtly proDantonio. Doesn't mention the fact that Dantonio already had a chance to speak before that, and it says it was a forum, as if to suggest that all the coaches were supposed to be involved but Hecklinski was stealing the show. It was a speech. If it was an open forum I think the organizers would have probably had all the other coaches onstage already don't you? Dantonio really is the douchiest of them all.
Ps. Does anyone else have a problem clicking on detnews links? Every time I click them my browser shuts down and I have to reset it... This is actually the first time it didn't happen, but when I clicked the link again a second time it shut down. Not very tech savvy over here but that seems strange to me.

Honestly, all the articles
Honestly, all the articles are really wishy washy on the details. It doesn't really sound like any of the authors were actually there, just second hand reports and quoting of the MLive article. It really just seems like they don't have a good handle on the specifics of the situation rather than any bias one way or the other.

Seems like it was
Seems like it was
Seems like it was a time for all the coaches to briefly introduce themselves and Heck went on to give a presentation/speech before the actual panel started. Too much biased opinion out there bending this one way or another. Misunderstanding on all sides is what it seems to boild down to. An actualy video/audio of this panel would clear this all up for everyone.

You've had two good seasons. Don't forget the losing record you put up 3 years ago. I'd be concerned about your slipping basketball program. Your Football program has never mattered and it never will. Your coaches are getting to be downright embarrassing.

The panel was called
The panel was called "important issues facing college football and recruiting". This runs contrary to radio reports and is omitted from print reports. State sources are saying it was a panel on how coaches can develop relationships with their players. Not hard to find the schedule.

Dantonio The Heckler
Dantonio The Heckler
Once again, a Michigan coach shows decorum when none is given in kind by a coach for our much-esteemed in-state rival. Scenes like this make me love my alma mater even more, as she taught me to be a better person than that, among other things.

The Det news version makes Dantonio look curiously in the right. it at least leaves room for it. Curious how Hecklinski was made to look like he got his hand caught in the cookie jar.
From this account, he appears ridiculously juvenile. I wonder if this verson will appear in the media. I am so sick of spin. I just hope the story comes out and puts Dantonio in him place.

Regardless of how it gets
Regardless of how it gets spun by the media, what matters is how it was perceived by those in attendance in that room. If MD looked like as much of a douche as the OP indicated, then the damage is done, and that could affect recruiting in the only place in the country where at least a few people give a shit about MSU.

Here is what I do not get... If you really wanted to be the smart coach, you would pay attention to what your rival has to say... write it down, go home and figure out the weaknesses and benefit from those weaknesses.
