Matt Millen says MSU is a contender for a National Championship
I couldn't make this up if I wanted to. Maybe Millen thinks that MSU is leaving the country, and playing teams around the pacific rim. I could see MSU becoming National Champions of China, although I think Shanghai would give them a pretty good run. How Millen continues to collect a paycheck, is one of the greatest mysteries of our time.
That wasn't the only source I found, but when I buzzed through a bunch of Google results, I just went back and clicked on the first one.
That being said...you're right. I did a further bit of research (digging through PSU archives) and he was listed as a DT.
... you're village idiot is loose again.
FWIW jawsMD, he played middle linebacker at Penn State. To many hits to the head I think.
While we're correcting people, your "you're" could use some work.
and it should be too not to...
Well if we're correcting people, then to everyone, his name is not spelled "Millen", it's spelled "Shitkicker". I think it's a Dutch name or something.
but when calling someone an idiot, it's usually a good idea to use the right form of "your".
The ESPN graphic today said DT. My apologies for not fact-checking.
You were correct.
Sweet, sweet vindication.
Literally nothing in the world could make me more confident that MSU is bound for a collapse. Millen is the ultimate kiss of death.
But....Im stuck working part time at a big box store, and THIS GUY is raking in good money for commentary I and most of this blog could easily do a better job with?
Game over MSU...Game over
....because I actually spit piping hot coffee on my computer after seeing the headline. What is he smoking, and can he share it with me?
As bad as he is at everything he has done post football, how does he still have a job? I have to believe he made a real sweet deal with the devil that is only rivaled by the Kardashians.
in what sport? billboarding
Engineering student beating.
HALOL
Millen, u conscious!
This made my day.
Matt Millen also thought drafting a WR every year was a good idea.
Millen's grand prediction will translate to 5-8 season1
Exactly how does one rack up a 5-8 record in college football?
they won their division and made it to the big ten championship and lost.
Sounds like a hell of a season.
Let's keep this on the down low, though. If recruits start hearing about MSU's grand future, they might actually accept a scholarship to become a Spartan.
I haven't done the math, but I'll guess 5-3 (with four non-conference losses) could win a division as the best record if you win against the other 5-3 teams in your division head-to-head.
Since the non-conference schedule happens early on, it would certainly count as a "hell of a season" -- basically starting 0-4, then clawing back to go 5-3 the rest of the way, with most or all of those losses outside of the division.
Matt Millen should be a local weather man.
In all seriousness, the weathermen covering the U.P. have more class and knowledge than Matt MIllen.
He said MSU has a solid O-line... if anything that's there biggest question mark. They lost Stipek and DJ Young (There might be one other) and they struggled during the spring game. Cousins will have less time to throw and there running game will be far less effective. Matt Millen is such an idiot, even my MSU fan brother laughed at this.
They have some "holes" they're trying to fill.
Really!? "shakes heads walks out of room"
Millen got kicked to the curb too soon man. He just needed ONE more WR. That was it.
Not that we need anymore justification, but Millen lost me like 3 lines in when he said they have a good O line. I'm pretty sure replacing a center with a converted DT, and both tackles off of an already crappy O line isn't gonna translate into great success. Now, I could be totally wrong and the unit be better as a whole, but I doubt it.
Exactly what I was trying to say above, but you said it much better haha
I don't think Sparty will even come close to their record from last year let alone a NC.
- BJ Cunningham starts failing drug tests, breaks his collarbone twice, then never plays football again
- Keith Nichols gains 100 lbs
- a freshman refuses to carry Keshawn Martin's shoulder pads and Martin starts crying about it
Seems like he exhausts his intellect after ~10s.
Awesome. So now we know MSU are pretenders.
No words can describe the unfathomable suck sitting at that desk.
Please, please, please find a way to turn this segment into a gif!!!!
Obviously an expert on all things football in the state of Michigan
Wow.
I mean not only does he go with Sparty, which, like really. Dude? But also Arkansas? They're playing a first year qb with a very tough schedule. Not a chance, man. He even picked Boise 'cause of a weak schedule, which, yeah, I can see that. But, then, how do you pick Arkansas? Or Nebraska for that matter?
A contender for NC...just like this past year in basketball, right? How did that work out?
Actually, I admit there's a huge difference. Izzo kicked guys off the team (and many blamed that for their pathetic season - by comparison to the expectations) and we all know St. Mark would never do such a thing!
should be worried.
Matt Millen is worse than the SI cover curse.
In my lone individual experience with Matt Millen, he acted like a giant tool. I was at a coaches clinic and he sat a couple rows behind me. The entire time the presenter - Purdue head coach Danny Hope - was talking, Millen sat there and had a casual conversation with the guy who was sitting next to him, without even bothering to whisper. Because, you know, we all paid to hear Millen distract us.
"Here's $90, but I'm only giving it to you if you can ensure that some crappy former NFL GM can sit behind me and prevent me from hearing an NCAA coach's presentation. Deal?"
Sadly, not surprising. Honestly, I still cannot figure out why the Fords hired the guy in the first place.
It's because WC Ford II doesn't know what competence is. If Ken Schwartz turns them into a team that's merely competitive, it'll be a case of the blind squirrel eventually finding a nut. What else can you say about a guy who's owned the team for almost a half-century whose winningest coach is Wayne Fontes?
*Jim Schwartz
Yeah, but it was Danny Hope, not Vince Lombardi.
What's the point in being in the room? I guess Hope probably has some worthwhile things to say but man...what a gross combo. It's like, instead just eating that one grossass sandwich you made that's been sitting in the fridge too long you eat a grape and choke.
