Jonathan Smith seeks success for Michigan State and to uphold the legacy that mark Dantonio carried most recently

Michigan State football, once a powerhouse in the college football landscape, has declined in recent years, losing its touch and struggling to reclaim its former glory. The team, known for its gritty play and competitive spirit, has faced numerous challenges on and off the field that have contributed to its downfall.

However, since Dantonio's departure, the Spartans have struggled to find stability at the head coaching position. A series of coaching changes and transitions have disrupted the team's momentum and hindered its ability to compete at a high level consistently. The decline of Michigan State football was perhaps most evident in the last season they made it to the playoffs, which was the 2015 season. That year, under Dantonio's leadership, the Spartans finished with a record of 12-2 and claimed the Big Ten Championship. Their playoff journey began with a thrilling victory over the Iowa Hawkeyes in the Big Ten Championship Game, securing their spot in the College Football Playoff.
