Michigan State head football coach Mark Dantonio underwent emergency heart surgery this morning after having symptoms consistent with a heart attack, the school confirmed today in a news release. Dantonio was admitted to Sparrow Hospital early this morning, the school said. He is expected to make a full recovery. “He is young, in excellent shape, and the damage to his heart was minimal. Coach Dantonio made the right decision to come in and get checked out immediately,” Dr. Chris D'Haem, the physician who operated on Dantonio, said in the release. Michigan State will hold a news conference on campus at 1 p.m., associate athletics director John Lewandowski wrote in an e-mail sent to media members.
Even after this terrible turn of events I still think I'd rather be Mike Dantonio than Brian Kelly this morning. Best of luck to Mark in his quick recovery from all the Blueskiers.
