In the past 24 hours, Michigan State has hired a new defensive coordinator, director of player personnel, and finally a new head strength and conditioning coach in Jason Novak, effectively solidifying Mel Tucker’s staff for the 2020 Football season.
Novak spent last season at IMG Academy, based in Florida, serving as their head of physical conditioning. Novak started his career as a grad assistant for Baylor and Stephen F. Austin before joining Alabama State’s strength and conditioning program from 200-03. Novak had his first lead strength and conditioning role at Yale in 2003-04 before leaving for the NFL where he spent 11 years working as an assistant strength and conditioning coach for the Tennessee Titans between 2004-15.
Novak then made his way to the State of Michigan where he was the director of strength and conditioning at Central Michigan before heading to IMG Academy.
Novak will be replacing the long-time MSU Football strength and conditioning coach Ken Mannie who retired a few weeks back.
