Mark Dantonio Announces Hiring of Don Treadwell to Spartan Coaching Staff

EAST LANSING, Mich. – Don Treadwell, who served as Michigan State’s offensive coordinator for four seasons from 2007-10 under head coach Mark Dantonio, has returned to the Spartan coaching staff.

Treadwell will assist coaching defensive backs and special teams while also helping as an offensive consultant. In addition, Treadwell will serve as freshmen head coach, a new title created to support first-year players in their growth and development both on and off the field.

“We’re very excited to have Don Treadwell back at MSU,” said Dantonio. “This will be the fifth different time that we’ve worked together on staff, going back to Youngstown State, Cincinnati, and now three times at Michigan State.
