Michigan State losing senior associate athletic director to the NFL's Jacksonville Jaguars

[ASFN Admin]

Michigan State has their new head man to run the athletic department, poaching away J Batt from Georgia Tech. He will now be tasked with rebuilding the Spartans athletic department in the way he sees it in his vision.

With the new look for Spartan athletics incoming under Batt, there is surely going to be more personnel changes within the department. With changes being anticipated, some within the department are already finding their next positions.

One executive member of MSU's athletic department is heading to the NFL. Jon Dykema has accepted a position with the Jacksonville Jaguars front office.

After spending 14 years with the Detroit Lions organization, working with contracts, negotiations and salary cap structure, Dykema spent time with Michigan State as Executive Senior Associate AD/Student-Athlete Management and Assistant General Counsel.
