Recapping MSU football's recruiting month; Max Christie, Gabe Brown and Marcus Bingham to the NBA Jun 27, 2022

Show notes

We kick off the week by recapping a fun and action-packed MSU football recruiting month for the 2023 cycle. We look back at how many kids ended up visiting, the big commitments MSU got in Jordan Hall, Clay Wedin, Demetrius Bell, Chance Rucker and (maybe) Jaylon Braxton and other big news on the horizon.

Then we look back on Thursday's NBA Draft where Max Christie heard his name called and Gabe Brown and Marcus Bingham are also getting shots with organizations. How do those three guys fit with their new homes?

And we end the show with NIL news as East Lansing NIL Club and SD4L are offering fans a good opportunity to get into the NIL game at a reasonable price that benefits all MSU football players.

Previewing another big recruiting weekend for MSU football and Max Christie's NBA Draft prospects Jun 23, 2022

Show notes

We are joined by great friend of the program Stephen Brooks of 247Sports for the whole show! For the fourth and final time this month, MSU football and Mel Tucker has a HUGE recruiting weekend for the Spartans 2023 class. Who are the big names visiting, and how is this weekend unique compared to the previous big weekends?

And then before getting to Max Christie and NBA Draft talk, we play a game of "This Or That" where we debate which 5-star Spartan fans would rather want, which football duo we'll miss more and much more!

MSU football losing a commit? And who will surprise us in MSU basketball's upcoming season? Jun 21, 2022

Show notes

After a rip-roaring start to the 2023 MSU football recruiting class, we may have hit our first snag as 4-star cornerback Jaylon Braxton is picking up predictions to flip to Arkansas.

Also, after a two-year hiatus Moneyball Pro-Am is back and we look at which Spartans are playing on which teams, as well as giving a few things we are looking for this summer.

And before ending the show with The Game Game, we open the mailbag to talk who will surprise us on the basketball court next year, what to expect from freshman Alex VanSumeren next season and would we like Hunter Dickinson if he transferred to MSU?

Michigan State football's State of the Program and Spartan fan survey results with Colton Pouncy Jun 20, 2022

Show notes

We are joined by The Athletic's own Colton Pouncy who is fresh off of some great MSU football pieces. We talk about the State of the Program, from Payton Thorne and the run game, where Harold Joiner fits in, the pass defense and much more.

Then we get into the detailed Spartan fan survey results. Who is the best assistant coach when it comes to recruiting? Is Keon Coleman the guy who is most due for a breakout year? And what can be done to help the Spartan Stadium experience? We hit on those and a ton more in another fun chat with Colton.

MSU basketball or football closer to a national title?; What should Tucker use for recruiting next? Jun 14, 2022

Show notes

Friend of the program @MattyMehhh joins the show to crack open the mailbag that takes us on a journey. We start with the evergreen question of "Who is closer to winning a national championship -- Michigan State basketball or football?"

We then try to help the MSU football staff in recruiting and debate what other vehicles they can use for photoshoots the next two weekends.

And if you thought this program lacked Dua Lipa content, we got you covered. Just trust us.

4-star LB Jordan Hall commits to MSU football's 2023 recruiting class; Mike Garland retires Jun 13, 2022

Show notes

Michigan State football keeps its momentum rolling for the 2023 class as they add a top 200 player in Jordan Hall out of IMG Academy. What is there to love about his game, and who did he pick Michigan State over? And what does this do for MSU's class nationally?

After 22 years at Michigan State, Mike Garland steps into retirement and leaves a spot open on MSU's staff. What were players and coaches saying about him, and what route will MSU go to fill that position?

And before diving into our mailbag to talk about Kenneth Walker's impact on recruiting, we take a quick peak at Spartan athletes and how they fared at the NCAA Track and Field National Championships.
