‘I Didn’t Know What I Signed Up For’ – New MSU Safeties Coach James Adams Struggles to Adjust, Calls Out ‘Chaos’ Behind the Scenes
East Lansing, MI – Michigan State’s newest addition to the football coaching staff, safeties coach James Adams, is already turning heads—and not necessarily for the right reasons.
In a surprisingly candid moment during his first week on campus, Adams reportedly told colleagues, “I didn’t know what I signed up for,” citing confusion, disorganization, and “a serious lack of labeled doors” as just a few of the challenges he’s faced in acclimating to his new role.
While Adams brings experience from other Power Five programs, he admitted the transition to Michigan State has been anything but smooth. “It’s been… chaotic, to say the least,” he said, according to unnamed sources within the staff. “One day I’m in a film room with the corners coach, the next I’m being handed a lunch schedule for the O-line. No one tells you how to survive your first week at MSU.”
Fans on Spartan social media were quick to react, with some defending Adams’ honesty while others questioned whether he has the grit for Big Ten football.
“Maybe he’s just being real,” one fan posted. “If the program’s messy behind the scenes, we should know.” Others weren’t so forgiving: “If you can’t handle East Lansing in the spring, wait ‘til you meet Ohio State in the fall.”
Despite the bumpy start, insiders say head coach Jonathan Smith remains confident in Adams’ ability to lead the safeties room, calling the coach “a work in progress, but one with upside.”
Still, the Spartan faithful are watching closely. With the program in the midst of a critical rebuild, there’s little room for growing pains. And for James Adams, the pressure is already on.
