Fickell update: Michigan State private jet left Cincinnati around 12:45. A black SUV dropped off two new people (one in heels) that were not on the incoming flight. Today’s flight destination was just changed to Lansing. #Bearcats

I don’t see anybody else on that staff that msu would be going after.

Lewis is a bad choice. State needs new blood not another 60 something year old retread.

There's no dumpster fire. The NCAA does not punish based on civil lawsuits. There has to be NCAA cheating and law enforcement has to get involved.

dumpster fire w/ regards to football stuff. their 2020 recruiting class is 10th in the big 10 (they were beaten by purdue and maryland). they really have no playmakers nor QB on the roster who is inspiring

When Harbaugh makes the playoffs or plays in the Rose Bowl come back and post.

At this point, is cincy a step down from MSU? I really don't think so.

fickell should stay at cincy one more year, do well, then wait for a really big school to nab him.

MSU is arguably in their worst shape since the john l smith era.

They will be extremely lucky to make a bowl next year, looking at that roster.

Hey dumb twit, I NEVER SAID MSU was an inferior school. Obviously it is a bigger gig than cincy IN THEORY AND ON PAPER.

But it is obviously untrue looking solely at the last 2 years. Cincy has been the better team.

Fickell has a chance to have another great year at cincy and then get a YUGE job offer.

MSU not only seems to be on a decline, but there are some nasty skeletons currently in the closet that a new coach won't want to deal with.

Sources: Luke Fickell has decided to stay at Cincinnati. After interviewing for Michigan State on Sunday and talking it over with his family, he elected to stay put.

I want to be upset but we have a shithead useless Ath. Director, so this doesn't surprise me in a bit.

This is turning into a major disaster, the timing and circumstances with Dantonio stepping down were obviously not handled well when they should’ve had a plan in place for at least 12 months when things went sideways last year.

Poor leadership.

Cincinnati is in great shape...i believe Fickell just won 11 games with a freshman QB who is only going to get better. He is from Ohio, knows how to recruit in state talent and is building Cincinnati into an AAC power. Why leave for Sparty right now? Plus, maybe he knows Cincinnati might be joining a P5 in the near future???
