Former Michigan State wide receiver Courtney Hawkins is known to fans from his days catching passes donning the green and white. Hawkins ranks sixth all-time in receiving at Michigan State which resulted in him being selected in the second round of the 1992 NFL draft. The Spartan standout spent nine seasons in the NFL before returning to his alma mater, Flint Beecher, to serve as a head coach.
After being hired, coach Mel Tucker made it a point to bring the former standout wide receiver back to East Lansing on his coaching staff. Hawkins reciprocated and was hired as the new wide receivers coach for the Spartans.
Michigan State football’s video staff took fans through the years as one-time MSU player now turned MSU wide receivers coach and the journey it took to get there. You can watch it below:
