Mark Dantonio made headlines in the fall after exchanging messages with The Rock on Twitter.

The Michigan State coach added another celebrity connection on Friday by meeting Alex Rodriguez on campus and posing for a photo.

Dantonio even joked via Twitter about finding a job in the former baseball star's company, A-Rod Corp.

A program spokesman said Rodriguez is in East Lansing for Michigan State's basketball game Friday night against Indiana and the team posted a photo with him on Twitter. The No. 9 Spartans (16-3) host the Hoosiers (11-7) at 7 p.m. at the Breslin Center.
