Since 2005, the Spartans have had 7, 5, 7, 10, 10, 10, 12, 8, 9, 8, 8, 10, 11, 11, 10, 11, 11, and 7 white starters. In 2023, the team projects to start just 4, a record low for this 127 yr old program.
Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker is in elite company with one of the most lucrative contracts in college football, but he frankly doesn't have a pedigree to match. After a strange covid year, Tucker went 11-2 in 2021, netting himself a 10-yr, $95 mil contract extension. The 2022 campaign saw a 5-7 record, and this year projects to be another struggle. Being black, Tucker enjoys the intangible quality of being a "great recruiter." The logic behind this is quite simply that black players prefer their own kind to suiting up for any given cracka-ass honkey.
Tucker, who himself is known to bounce around the coaching carousel, lives (and dies) by the transfer portal. The Spartans lost last year's starting QB Payton Thorne to Auburn and top receiver to Florida State. Michigan State's football ethos has historically been 'doing more with less,' but this is difficult to maintain when so many contributing players are mercenaries for playing time. Frankly, I am shocked at how quickly the plucky, under-recruited whites have disappeared from this roster.
In fact, I can't bring myself to write any more content about this garbage heap. I don't have a high horse about coaching contracts, transfer players, or Korean quarterbacks. This roster is a disgrace, and I hope Michigan State loses every single game, starting with the Friday night opener against Central Michigan.
Starters:
OG: J.D. Duplain, Geno VanDeMark
C: Nick Samac
LB: Cal Haladay
Backups:
QB: Katin Houser, Sam Leavitt
OL: Braden Miller, Cole Dellinger
TE: Jack Nickel
DE: Avery Dunn, James Schott
DT: Maverick Hansen, Alex VanSumeren
