Football playing families at MSU - A Project

I've thought about this many times but have never undertaken getting it all in one place.

It seems that MSU football has a lot of multi generational and other family ties.

I'd like to get them all in one place, not just current players but over the decades too.

To start with the most famous:
Hank Bullough > Shane Bullough > Chuck Bullough > Max Bullough > Riley Bullough > Byron Bullough

Jim Miller > Grayson Miller

Mike Panasiuk > Jacub Panasiuk > Maybe 1 more coming?

Jack Allen > Brian Allen > Matt Allen

David & Andrew Dowell > Maybe 1 more coming?

Jim Morrissey > Matt Morrissey

Andre Rison > Hunter Rison

Others? I know I'm missing many.....

Grayson Miller

Incoming croot Isiaa (sp?)

Edit: you got Grayson, but wrong Miller papa

Shit actually 3 incoming legacies: Isaia, Dowell and the Slade bros.

Tico Duckett & TJ Duckett

Who was the Dad?

Rich & Ron Saul back in the 70s, no legacies I recall though.

Miles & Mitchell White

Were there 2 Pekos?

Edit Actually 3. Tupe, Domata and Fou Foniti was there cousin

Went back and looked at the roster...

Matt & Mitchell Sokol

Tanner Hallock son of Ty Hallock.

Floyd was right Grayson son of John Miller the S, not Jim the QB.

Reid Burton, son of Coach Ron

Nick Krumm, son of Todd

Tony Banks and his brother Carlton were the son of Phil, who was an OT that played for Duffy.

John. Rose bowl 87 switched from corner to safety.

Frank Sakimano > Bill Sakimano > Bob Sakimano

Brad Van Pelt and his son Bradlee

Wait, this is football. I thought this was about family run moonshine stills in the Smokies. Never mind. Sorry to all those involved.

Edit: It should have read Crazy Bill Sakimano.

Should we count Percy Snow bringing us Eric?

Charlie "Maddog" Thornhill and his boys Josh and Kaleb

George Perles. John and Pat Perles.

Scott and Billy Greene are another.

Blake Treadwell, son of Don (though Don wasn't a player here).

Lo White's kid wanted to come to MSU several years back, but didn't get an offer. Ended up at Central.

I wonder how this compares to other Power 5 schools, both overall and currently. Really seems like we have an extraordinary amount at the moment. Especially sons of former players.

Link to the all time roster in the media guide for anyone that's bored and wants to see what memories are sparked....

Good ones. Can't believe I didn't think of them.
