Congratulations to coach Pat Shurmur for being named the new head coach of the New York Giants. Shurmur was the offensive coordinator of the Minnesota Vikings who went onto play in the 2017 NFC Championship game after a 13-3 division title.
This is Shurmur's second go around as a full time head coach. His first was a two year stint with Cleveland Browns in 2011-12. He had a 9-23 record.
Shurmur was one of the first recruits for head coach George Perles at MSU. By the time he was a senior in 1987, he was a co-captain and named to the All-Big Ten team as a center. The Spartans ended up winning the Big Ten championship and the Rose Bowl also.
Shurmur does not have any trading cards depicting him nor do I have 8x10 photo of him. The only Shurmur item in my collection is the program from the 1987 game vs Michigan. MSU won that day 17-7 much to the thanks of intercepting U of M quarterback seven times.
