Jim Michalczik states MSU OLine has ‘come a long way’

Michigan State football has seen some growth at a very important position group

Michigan State football has seen some growth at a very important position group.

Michigan State offensive line coach Jim Michalczik met with the media on Thursday and stated his unit has “come a long way since April.” He also stated the unit has continued to get better every day.

I think anytime you do something, you are always trying to get better. I think everyday we have gotten better, but we are still not where we want to be,” Michalczik said during his media session according to Spartan Mag.

The Spartans’ offensive line is a position group that could make or break the season. So this is great to hear from Michalczik.
