         <description><![CDATA[For some Spartans, big-time dreams don't die easy. For die-hard Michigan State football fans Allen Klein and Dick Fullmer, the big-time dreams are just to wear the Green and White and come barreling out of the Spartan Stadium tunnel. And thanks to the annual Spartan Football Fantasy Camp, Klein's and Fullmer's dreams, along with the dreams of 22 other campers, can come true.<P>It's safe to say the Spartan Football Fantasy Camp dates are circled prominently on Klein's calendar. For the past three summers, the Livingston, N.J., native juggles his appointments as a prominent international banker to take the field. Last year, Klein picked football camp over a bankers' conference in London, and this year, he scheduled his trip to Europe to assure him a spot in the Spartan fantasy lineup.<P><a href="http://all-access.cstv.com/cstv/player/player.html?code=msu&sport=m-footbl&category=Features%20%26%20Interviews%20%28MediaType%29&media=69994">2008 Spartan Football Fantasy Camp Highlights</a>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[Tim Allen, who spent 19 seasons on Glen Mason's coaching staff at Kansas (1988-96) and Minnesota (1997-2006), has been named director of football operations at Michigan State, according to an announcement made by second-year Spartan head coach Mark Dantonio.

From 1999-2005, Minnesota averaged better than seven wins per season (50 total).]]></description>
