Ron Burton was a strong and loyal member of Michigan State’s coaching staff for the better part of a decade. Burton joined coach Mark Dantonio’s staff in 2013, and was retained for the first two years of Mel Tucker’s tenure in East Lansing all as a defensive line coach.
Following the 2021 season, Tucker and Burton agreed to part ways, and Burton made the move to Oxford, Ohio, to coach the Miami University Redhawks.
