I found this one to be of interest for some reason

Bobby Williams

Worked under Saban at Michigan State from 1995-1999

CAREER HIGHLIGHTS
• Michigan State head coach, 1999-2002
• Currently special assistant to Saban at Alabama
Williams was Saban’s running backs coach at Michigan State and took over the program when Saban left for LSU after the 1999 regular season. An overwhelmingly popular choice among the players when he was elevated, Williams was fired nine games into his third season with a 16-17 overall record and a 6-15 record in Big Ten play.

    Bobby Williams didn’t take one of the worst programs in the FBS and lead them to a huge win in the Little Caesar’s bowl though.

    There must not have been much off-the-field progress that didn't show on the scoreboard that the fans couldn't see but the AD could see

    If you were stupid enough to not immediately know how disastrous Cristobal was because of his track record, then his letting Royce Freeman give an inspirational speech the surf-n-turd bowl should seal the deal.

    Shaw to the south. Petersen to the north. There's a word for that. Surrounded.

    The next few years should be a lot of fun. It'll be Operation Bagration levels of skullfuckery,

    It's like promoting a position coach to head coach is stupid or something. Weird.

    The Cougars were going to promote a coach internally.

    huh?

    The best part is that, in all likelihood, the Cristobal era will end following a loss to Babushka.
