Michigan State has been known in the recent decade for producing quarterbacks who go on to have productive NFL careers. Aside from the Washington Redskins‘ Kirk Cousins, none have shown that they can be much better than average, though recently departed signal-caller Connor Cook has as much potential as any.
It’s a testament to head coach Mark Dantonio, who has helped to turn the program completely around since taking the reins from John L. Smith in 2007. He’ll have a decision to make before fall rolls around, as he’ll have to choose between a senior, a junior and a true freshman to succeed Cook behind center.
