MSU praised in recent anonymous quotes from college football coaches
We are at the point of the offseason where everyone has forecasting opinions on the upcoming season, and that is no different for a number of coaches in college football.
Athlon Sports College Football Magazine has recently posted anonymous thoughts and opinions on teams and other coaches across the country, which included Michigan State. The Spartans were recently featured in this segment from Athlon Sports, with the anonymous coaches' quotes being primarily positive for both this upcoming season and long term success under head coach Jonathan Smith.
Check out some of the notable anonymous quotes below -- courtesy of The Big Ten Huddle via Athlon Sports College Football Magazine:
Smith's approach at Michigan State
Anonymous Coach Quote: '[Jonathan] Smith is applying a very steady plan here. They're not going to make a huge splash; they're just going to improve steadily. He's got a blueprint that worked for him at Oregon State.'
Michigan State's outlook for 2025 season
Anonymous Coach Quote: 'They need a lot of work on defense, specifically the line and the secondary, at corner, and the running game was pretty mediocre for them last year. But they've done a really solid job with transfers, and they're still building their high school recruiting out.'
Anonymous Coach Quote: 'If you're looking for a most improved program this season, these guys might be it.'
Aidan Chiles' potential growth in 2025
Anonymous Coach Quote: 'Chiles was doing too much last year; they made a staff change and brought in one of his guys, and I think that can help.'
Thoughts on Michigan State reaching bowl game
Anonymous Coach Quote: 'A bowl is definitely possible for them this year, and the roster is going to be better overall.'
