Fitzgerald Takes Over MSU Football | Michigan State Spartans Football News

Michigan State’s football program is heating up with the high-profile hiring of Pat Fitzgerald, the former Northwestern coach, to revitalize a team that ended last season with just four wins and eight losses, including a brutal eight-game losing streak. Fitzgerald inherits a roster brimming with new energy—especially on offense, where transfers are flooding in at running back and along the offensive line. Defensively, he’s keeping key staff like Joe Rossi while reshaping the defensive line and rebuilding the secondary from scratch, relying on transfers and returning players. The linebackers, however, look like a bright spot with a top tackler back and a strong transfer addition. With the entire defense in flux and offense poised for a fresh start, Fitzgerald’s first season will be a make-or-break moment for Michigan State.
