Yeah, I worriedly predicted a couple years ago we might be entering a football "Nuclear Winter" and now would revise that to yes, were are solidly in it. Using my own definition of nuclear winter is that it will take us 5 years to fully pull out of it and that it will require some coaching stability. Lebby will have to be the one. If we replace him now, add another 5 years before we pull out of it. We are in a hell of a spot. Now is the time to determine if we truly are MSU fans or just bandwagon weight along for the ride. And NIL has certainly complicated our situation. Somebody is going to have to get this under control (probably Congress) so the playing field can at least be a little equal for a small market team like us. The only other thing I can think of would be to join the new PAC whatever, or drop down to some other level of competition. But, MSU is more than just football. We have many other teams that can be competitive in the SEC and on a national scale. The for real answer for football......"Hell I don't know at the moment".
