Drew Sharp: Best thing for UM a blowout loss to MSU?
Drew Sharp of the Detroit Free Press stirs the pot by writing that the best thing for UM’s “complacent” football program may be a blowout loss to the Spartans this weekend. I think Michigan State would be more than happy to help out.
The best long-term boost for the Wolverines would be the short-term humiliation of a butt-kicking from Michigan State. If that lops away the complacency in Ann Arbor, then it just might inspire an honest assessment of what the nation’s all-time leader in football victories expects of itself in the future.
It’s not about changing the coach as much as it is about changing the mind-set.
There’s an understandable comfort in 35 years of consistency, but some might look at that as stagnation.
