Spartan irony of all ironies

For the last three years, posters on the RCMB have repeatedly claimed that Martelli is the real head coach. How ironic would it be if he goes 5-0, including a win over the Aggies!

I didn't know the Aggies joined the Big 10, but hell yeah let's beat the NIL money out of them.

It use to be called the Agricultural School of the State of Michigan. It was the first land grand school in the US, thus probably deserves to be the first aggies. I guess it never had a military section like a lot of the latter land grand schools. I would be weird if they called it Michigan A&M. LOL. I don't care what sparty thinks!

That has always been such a ridiculous assumption that feels like it's probably based in racism. Anyone who has watched 5 minutes of a Michigan game in the last three years can see how stupid that is. Of the four coaches, Martelli is by far the least involved during games. Kind of an odd way to be a shadow coach.

It's a coping mechanism from MSU fans. They're hoping Martelli is the reason for Howard's success because he's in his late 60's and probably won't be coaching much longer. It's easier than facing the reality that Juwan may be a good coach in his own right who will be at M for 10+ years. Typical message board horse shit.

It is very obviously racist. Any success Juwan has is obviously due to the old white guy behind him. The reverse does/did not apply to Izzo and Dantonio. I wonder how they feel about Tucker…

They have lost 4 of the last 5 and have a road game in Iowa City tonight.

The unranked sparty's are playing the 25th ranked Iowa Hawkeyes!  Let the losing ways continue and watch the head coach implode.
