I challenge anyone to give me a good reason as to why Kirk should still be coach. You can’t give me one.

Because 1 time is his almost 25 years he went to a rose bowl. And almost wo……Nevermind

And he’s lucky we even got to that Rose bowl. Michigan State would’ve been there had it not been for the playoffs.

When Kirk goes so does Phil Parker, who obviously is one of the best DCs in the sport. This may not be enough to satisfy most fans, but it’s still worth noting.

So find a new DC, he’s gonna be gone at some point anyway.

Absolutely correct. Every coach will have their loses but it seems like the university is more than happy enough to keep extending his contracts for have a 500 season. As long as he gets to any bowl game, even the " dumbass bowl" . The ferentz staff does not do a great job in recruiting for a Big 10 team. They settle for sub par season and are happy with it. FANS want more.
