He went on to lead Michigan State to the College Football Playoff in 2015. He led the Spartans to three Big Ten titles and was named Big Ten Coach of the Year twice. Dantonio ranks No. 11 in Big Ten history in both overall wins as a head coach with 114 and Big Ten Conference wins with 69. He was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2024.
