Chris Fowler announced on GameDay this morning that Mark Dantonio, who suffered a heart attack in the wake of Michigan State’s overtime win over Notre Dame, will remain in the hospital for today’s game against Wisconsin, and will not coach from the press box as previously speculated. His recovery is reportedly going well, but doctors discovered a blood clot in his leg following an operation and have not released him as a precaution.
Mark Dantonio To Remain Hospitalized For Michigan State-Wisconsin
↵Dantonio has already missed one game in the intervening days, the Spartans’ 45-7 win over Northern Colorado, but today’s conference contest against also-unbeaten Wisconsin has just taken on an uneasy edge.
↵While clots can be serious, they’re not unheard of after what Dantonio’s been through. And knowing him, we’ll expect the iron-lunged coach to have screamed it out of his leg by next week.
