Mark Dantonio and "Red-Lock" status.
WTF is this supposed to mean and why aren't we making lots of good jokes yet?
Coach Mark Dantonio, when asked Wednesday if anyone who participated in the April 1 scrimmage has been suspended or are no longer with the program, said other players beyond the 15 who did not dress for the game are in what he termed a “red-lock” situation.
“Well, we red-lock people from time to time. We use the term red-lock for various things,” Dantonio said on the Big Ten spring football teleconference. “So yes, there has been. That’s a constant. There is constant people in and out of different situations. I think that is normal.”
They have more trouble coming their way. Yet another incident swirling around the football program.
That's a crying shame
The shame is that there have to be innocent victims in events like these. I wish it was just a guy skipping class or snorting cocaine and ruining his own brain, but people are being victimized by these knuckleheads.

Your name and avatar always make me think of Maynard Ferguson...

I didnt know the American Dream Dusty Rhodes played the trombone.
April 13th, 2017 at 11:47 AM ^
That's a trumpet, asshole.
April 13th, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
to work "Dusty trombone" into the same sentence.
April 13th, 2017 at 12:46 PM ^
for such strong musical instrument advocacy.
His statement took a lot of brass.
I'll show myself out ...
Not sure what point you're trying to make. He was just sharing his response to the picture.
Nothing incorrect in what he stated. If it made him think of Dusty and a trombone, then so be it!
Personally, it made me think of a conch shell and a grey haired wrinkled old woman.
(But I'm hoping to see only 1 of those on the beach in 10 days!)
That was the funniest sequence on this board in a while.
What do you think about that Buick commercial where the kid is playing a French Horn and calling it a Tuba?

I always imagine him as a lovable beatnik.

Haha. I wish. Sex, drugs, and Michigan Football...er.. I mean rock n roll. Or was it coffee, computers, and a cubicle? Can never remember. Too many years living in the fast lane.
There is only one Maynard and that is Maynard G Krebs. Off my lawn.

I can't revel in the destruction of a program; especially when it comes at the expense of innocent people.
April 13th, 2017 at 11:05 AM ^
happened to 4 year starter, team captain, family Sparty legacy Max Bullough. He just up and vanished on the eve of MSU's biggest game in the last 50 years.
I'm still dumbfounded by the free pass that the media gives MSU, Dantonio and Bullough on this topic. Crazy.

EDIT: For those that don't want to give LSJ a click, a fourth MSU player is under investigation for sexual assault, but it's totally separate from the other incident/s, apparently.

We've seen this stuff 23-32 (thousand) times already, but I think next year we may have to put up with it anywhere from 7-56 times more often.

What will be even funnier is when Western stomps them in week 2!!
I upvoted you for the information, but the situation surrounding their athletic program has crossed into the land of sad for me and certainly nothing to be celebrated. Its just one thing after another after another after another...
I just want to know what the hell he is talking about?
How long is Michigan State going to refer to whatever is going on within their program as "those things that are going on that really serious and really, really bad but super secretive and that we will not expand on nor clarify because of #investigations in a very vague sense and we won't take questions but it is really bad guys."? Are they ever going to discuss what those things are? So weird.

Until the Ingham county prosecutor gets off their ass and charges someone, msu will be able to be as sly as they want.
April 13th, 2017 at 10:26 AM ^
Or until they run out of players to put on the field. At the rate they are going, they may become Walk-On State.
...Nice ring to it.
April 13th, 2017 at 10:34 AM ^
Sounds like LIC to me.
April 13th, 2017 at 12:35 PM ^
This would be more accurate if you had just included one additional "another".
Carry on.
I especially like talking to their fans. Quite a different tone than a few years ago. Oh how things have changed.
Yes. Things are going to get much worse before they get better in East Lansing.
makes me think of my favorite Simpsons scene:
