That's a tough job to figure.
Looks like they are going to lose most of their class in recruiting and guessing that a lot of the guys loyal to Mel will transfer out (he has a history of that.)
Michigan State has the resources to be a good job and they should be able to recruit but they will always be the little brother in that state and stand in the shadow of Not only Michigan but also Ohio State, Notre Dame, and some others in the region.
The Mel situation doesn't touch on NCAA rules and there isn't any indication that sanctions are coming for anything but as a coach coming in I would worry that after all the bad publicity following Dantonio, Nasser, and now Tucker if the university administration isn't going to come down on the program restricting what can be done.
They are also still on the hook for a lot of money depending on how Tucker's contesting of his firing goes as well as money they will end up paying Ms. Tracy.
Especially since he's having a challenging season amidst his own scandal.
MSU would be crazy to pay a new coach what they paid Tugger. He took them to the cleaners.
Campbell may need a fresh start somewhere that might be more of a lateral move before he is a serious candidate for a bigger program job that's willing to throw around a 9 figure contract. Iowa State isn't a good job and I don't see any way he's able to get them back to where they were a few years ago.
Pretty unlikely he wins the QB lottery again.
That's going to be the going rate for a coach in the B1G and SEC, though. Their new media deals are fully paying for those contracts within the first 2 years
Ryan Walters makes half that.
Ok, maybe the going rate for pulling established HCs, not first time HCs with a few prior years of coordinator experience.
Yup, he should have jumped when he had the better chance.
Exactly!
He is a good man and he bet on Iowa State, likely cost himself a lot.
Outside of Elmo, that is pretty uninspiring
I feel like we’d be underwhelmed at that list

Well maybe tier 2, after Bronco MendenhallIn a bizzaro world, those could have been the list of candidates for CU
Big Jim
WTF?
Did he?
I couldn't stop laughing. This is my new favorite gif.
KU fans are probably about to jump off a cliff. When the initial list was presented, they were all in the comments saying that LL has already come out and said he'll never leave.

Why would any coach that is exceeding expectations at a low pressure program walk into an absolute delusional dumpster fire **** show of a program.
Because 95% of coaches aren’t concerned with “low pressure” and KU had a fairly mediocre ceiling and will never pay what MSU can pay.
Because most coaches aren’t playing the long game. And there are arguments both ways as to what’s the best way to go. Depends on priorities, values, and how a guy defines quality of life I suppose.
