If Joe beats Arkansas and Ole Miss, he will be back next year. Whether he should be back or not, we don't fire coaches that go 6-6 in a year that was supposed to be a "relative" down year, and in which case the best player on the defense, and probably the most important player on the defense, and then some key backups, are suspended for 8 games. I would normally call it ridiculous that you would even contemplate a coach being fired after 6-6, but if we get to 6 wins, it will be the least impressive six wins in a season I have ever seen a MSU team have a chance to acquire.

That said, if he gets to 6, just start hoping for Joe to kill it in recruiting and to also get some coaching help this off season, because he will be back next year if he gets to 6.
