Past trumps present for Spartans honorees.
It's always fun to talk about who would make the Mt. Rushmore for any given team during the offseason, and CBS Sports has now chosen its own version for the Michigan State Spartans.
We're in a historically successful era of MSU football, but the site's Tom Fornelli decided figures from the past most deserve their face in stone. Three of the choices hail from the 1960s, and one played his college football in the '80s.
The chosen figures are defensive back George Webster (1964-66), running back Lorenzo White (1984-87), defensive end Bubba Smith (1964-66) and head coach Duffy Daugherty (1954-72).
