Where was Mark Dantonio at Mel Tucker's press conference? A dozen introductory speeches from across the MSU peanut gallery, to include Tom Izzo, but Mark Dantonio, who's kept himself around by saddling himself with a $1 Million salary post within the athletic department, can't be bothered to be present at Mel Tucker's press conference? It's as easy as taking forty seconds to get up and announce your support every step of the way. Was Mark even mentioned? Heard Saban's name and Tressel's name, but not the one guy that's driven the program for the past decade and a half.

Huh? 


Man, he must know some SERIOUS dirt if he's getting a cool million a year to do nothing and keep quiet after the way he announced his departure...

It was in his contract that he'd get a $1 million athletic department advisor role once he retired

Ahh, got it. So that predated everything.

Understood.

Yeah, it was basically an enticement for him to retire as MSUs coach.

Honestly given Dantonio's stubborn streak and loyalty it's probably better if he's collecting his cash while sipping pina coladas on the beach somewhere

I am a little concerned he'll have a post-retirement Lloyd Carr type effect in the athletic department

5.4 mil for a guy that went 5-7.  Mkay.  Apparently, the guy went on radio 3 times saying he was staying at CU the day he signed with MSU.  Fun.

I think it's pretty easy for mine (assuming just talking their time at MSU)...

1. Dantonio
2. Perles
3. Saban
4. JLS
5. Williams

Couple MSU beat guys saying none of the staff is being retained.  I would have loved to keep Burton, but that's about it.
