so much for that
Dantonio-Hecklinski incident at MHSFCA clinic today
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 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.
speedy turn around and who is giving the deuces behind dantonio?

the situation?

I am dying to see a video or hear an audio of this.

Detnews and Freep both up with articles of the incident. Looks like this one just might have some legs

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.
"Michigan Defense" is dominating everything, in every aspect of life. That's a rough definition.

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 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.
I believe Charboneau is the MSU writer just like Chengelis is the Michigan writer for the Detroit News.
"They will meet a dastardly fate here for that! There isn't a Michigan Man who wouldn't like go out and scalp those Buckeyes right now."
Mark Dantonio is going to need surgery to re-attach his dick after stepping on it so violently in front of so many people whose good regard he needs. People who are going to be furiously texting, emailing, and talking about his ridiculous little snit for weeks and months.
I would flat out call Dantonio a douche to his face. I know people always say, "Yeah it would be different if you met the person face to face, blah blah."
Not this situation, I would rip into this guy.
"And if that doesn't wet your appetite, you're watching the wrong channel."

Go Blue!
Is there going to be video of this somewhere? I'd love to pass it around to some of my Sparty acquaintances.
...and his flamming bag of butthurt twords Michigan.
Fuck it, Dude, let's go bowling.
And not surprisingly, their reactions are ZOMG DANTONIO IS SO AWESOME FOR STANDING UP TO BIG BROTHER YEAH WE'RE DONE TAKING SHIT FROM scUM!!!!!!
"Ohio is like a giant turd that Michigan just can't pinch off"
I actually can't wait until we blow them out in the big house next year. Dantionio might be my least favorite sports figure in the world right now. The dude actually has a half-way decent team but he's so angry at Mike Hart still that he won't even smile.. no wonder he has health issues. That isn't healthy!
Aaron Craft has Rosacea, and I hate him.
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.
All in for some manball.
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.

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.

It's never too late to edit Dantonio's wikipedia page regarding the incident.
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.
"People who love sausage and respect the law should never watch either being made."
Immature, but funny none the less. I never liked the little brother comment when it first came out, but in hind sight, it was genius.
The MSU culture has evolved into a community of insecure people. It's sad really.
It's great to be a Michigan Wolverine!
Go Blue!
Don’t look back. Something might be gaining on you. -Satchel Paige
around here, they have always been insecure. They just have a poster child now.
It's never been about what they accomplish its always been about how it compared to Michigan.
Which is why they will always be Little Brother no matter what happens on the field
If you're doing nothing, how do you know when you're finished?
Not only did I grow up in Lansing but I was a State fan until it came time to pick a college. Then I got serious and turned from green to blue and haven't looked back since. But yeah, they should have a picture of Sparty as the definition of "inferiority complex."
go blue
I was supposed to head down to the clinic. Four of the guys I coach with made the trip. I'm disappointed that I missed more than just the bars tonight.
Glad that UM took the high road in this especially when MSU always tries to take the low road.

Appear to be the ultimate Woody Hayes Wannabees. But Woody won big for a long time Dickhead Dantonio.
Izzo, I don't get it. I am waiting for his tackling an opponent that is on a fast break.

You have gotta' love this . . .
Wonder if Dantonio would have tried that if Hoke was talking...
Anyways, this is a partisan Rorschach test. It does display to high school coaches what their kids will be getting themselves into though.
Dantonio = Kanye West
Jeff, I'm really happy for you and I'll let you finish, but MSU recruits nationally now!

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.
The coaching staff in E.L. has the same maturity level as the elementary school down the road from me...
I don't know who's hair is better, John Stamos circa Full House or Denard
GO BLUE
This is the kind of guy that when you get to 48 points, you go for two to put 50 on him.




Wouldn't put it past him.
