John L. Smith didn’t do anything that Bobby Williams and Nick “I never won a bowl game in East Lansing” Saban weren’t guilty of as well. MSU football has pretty much stunk for ten or fifteen years, aside from the year they beat Florida.
Ahhh ok, that makes a little more sense to me. What keeps MSU from being better in that time frame? Are they “in the shadow” of Michigan at all or do they have a tough time recruiting?
