It was a tough decision, but it sounds like Joe Rossi is glad he left Minnesota for Michigan State.

New Michigan State defensive coordinator Joe Rossi was one of many Spartans players and coaches who were included in the Big Ten Network’s fall camp preview show that aired on Monday night. The series includes stops at each Big Ten team ahead of the upcoming season.

Rossi was asked about his decision to leave Minnesota to join the Spartans, and he pointed to wanting to link up with new head coach Jonathan Smith as one of the reasons.
