We are unfortunately back. Recent events in East Lansing have forced us back to the mic to commiserate in the abysmal state of Michigan State Football.  We talk how we got here, what we think went wrong, and pontificate (and mostly just rant) about where we go from here. It's rock bottom, hopefully, and you're not alone.

FOLKS, WE HAVE NEVER BEEN MORE BACK!

We have a new search and this time it's a new Athletic Director. Alan Haller is out at Michigan State and we are joined by chief Haller Hater SpartanDog of BaconWire fame to usher in this new era of Michigan State Athletics.

We talk about what went wrong, the few things that went right, and where we go from here. We talk about potential candidates and how this effects our the most important thing at Michigan State (football) and whether this move foretells a third season of the pod.

Our Multiverse bit has suddenly become relevant again. Join Dearborn Ali, Doublewide Ryan, GoMichiganButtBoy, and Kevin Grech's Wife's Boyfriend as they discuss who they think should replace God in Ann Arbor.

(This was originally recorded as part of Episode 3 so the reasons for Jeem's departure are outdated, but the list of candidates definitely aren't)

The Final Episode. The Search is over, we have 9/10s of our staff, so we bid farewell to this chapter of our fandom. The boys cope with recent events, give thoughts on how the staff looks, prognosticate on the 2024 schedule, and answer your questions!

We thoroughly enjoyed doing this the past several months and we are extremely grateful you joined us on this ride.

NOTE: Due to technical difficulties with the recording, we weren't able to upload until a week after we recorded, so uh, some things have changed since then.

JONATHAN SMITH HAS BEEN NAMED THE 26TH HEAD COACH OF MICHIGAN STATE FOOTBALL. PREPARE YOUR MILKERS!

The boys come together to give their instant reacts to what we think is awesome news.

Things are cookin' in East Lansing. At time of recording, we were rumored to be down to two candidates and we deep dive into the two candidates. Zanjo's mic then goes AWOL (we stick to the brand) and by the end of the episode, the whisky takes over.

Are you talking about oil?

Other schools have joined the search party and how does that affect us? 2/3 of the guys are talk A&M, UCLA, and our search. We go over names, news, and some media analysis. We then leave off with a note of hope knowing that things are going to heat up really quick.

Grech from Can't Read, Can't Write joined us to talk about the search, but our guys got sucked into Bizarroworld!

The news has been a little slow lately and other wilder and funnier storylines are dominating sports in the State of Michigan, but are back with an update on candidates.

(Yes, Zanjo is working on his Mic)

Uhh, mindsets are changing within The Search Crew regarding a certain candidate.

We start off with a rant, touch on the 2024 schedule, discuss the coaching candidates, and wrap up by giving our takes on media takes.

Producers Note: Yea, I know, the audio isn't that great, but deal with it.

FIRST EPISODE WITH THE BOYS! Zanjo, Ryan, and Ali go through the MSU coaching candidates, the not coaching candidates, garbage-tier media takes, and the social media discourse around a particular big name.

Follow us at @TheSearch_MSU, @returnofbuttboy, @SpartanRyan, and @alyattawe.
