Beard's sources have told him that Dantonio's plan was to coach in 2020, then retire and pick his own replacement.
That plan reportedly went out the window when Dantonio found out MSU had hired a search firm to look into finding his replacement. That upset Dantonio and instead of staying on for the 2020 season, he abruptly retired.
