Is Tom Izzo inching closer to retirement? Which 5-stars are most likely to commit to MSU football? May 18, 2022

Show notes

Tom Izzo sounded off in depth on the state of college basketball on 730 AM The Game on Tuesday, and we dive into it with Justin Thind of 247Sports.

Was anything he said incorrect, will he adapt to the portal and NIL and do we think this speeds up his timeline to retirement?

We end on a fun note too as Justin Thind power ranks the likelihood of each of the 5-stars visiting campus actually committing to MSU.

Reacting to Max Christie staying in NBA Draft w/ Dave Klein of SpartanHoops.com May 17, 2022

Show notes

Max Christie is officially not returning to Michigan State basketball after one season, and we are joined by Dave Klein of SpartanHoops.com to talk about it (and make sense of it). How puzzling is this, what is Christie’s legacy as a Spartan and does this actually make sense for him?

And then we dissect what this means for MSU as they head into next season coming off an off-season that hasn’t been the kindest to them.

Mel Tucker's tenure, 5-star recruits, portal additions for MSU and the rest of the Big Ten May 16, 2022

Show notes

Sports Illustrated Director of Recruiting John Garcia Jr. joins the show to give us a national and expert outlook on plenty of MSU football topics. We start with his thoughts on the Mel Tucker Era and offers his opinion on if its too early to start expecting 5-star commitments this offseason.

Then we chat about who John thinks will have the biggest impact in East Lansing out of the transfer portal before taking a peek at the rest of the Big Ten Conference.

Big Ten football eliminating divisions? And are MSU basketball fans tensions reaching a fever pitch? May 13, 2022

Show notes

Connor Muldowney of SpartanAvenue.com joins the show again to banter about a little bit of everything. We start with the idea of getting rid of divisions in college football, does it benefit MSU and how tiebreakers should be settled.

Then we venture into thinking...is the MSU basketball fanbase going to reach a boiling point amongst each other?

And finally, what makes us feel old as sports fans?

How does MSU basketball, Jaxson Kohler and Trejuan Holloman stack up amongst the conference as 247Sports final 2022 recruiting rankings are finalized? And how do we feel about the small-yet-talented class?

MSU basketball's offseason, Big Ten football coaches Royal Rumble and more w/ John Kirby! May 11, 2022

Show notes

From Carson Cooper's commitment to the psychoanalyzing we do to ourselves, we discuss the Michigan State basketball offseason with John Kirby of The Only Podcast!

Then we answer a fun hypothetical -- how well would Mel Tucker do in a Battle Royale against all the other Big Ten coaches?

And the third segment goes everywhere from "Would you get a selfie with Tom Allen?" to John Kirby potentially just taking the assistant coaching basketball job himself.

Show notes

Michigan State's Peach Bowl rings dropped and they also feature the score of the iconic 37-33 score in the UM vs. MSU rivalry's most historic meeting. And, boy howdy, does that have some fans of that school down the road upset, so we bring in @OdellBretthamJr to talk about it!

We then discuss what moments made us Michigan State fans and what cemented our fanhood, from squirrels to devastating losses in the John L. Smith era.

And to end the show, it's an oldie but a goodie -- Kentucky Derby Jockey Or MSU Athlete!

MSU does not land Micah Parrish; Mailbag questions on all things Spartans May 05, 2022

Show notes

Oakland basketball transfer, who visited MSU last week, announced his commitment to San Diego State University and leaves the Spartans back searching for a transfer wing (potentially). However, we take a look on how it could work for next year's MSU teams even if they don't land anyone.

And then we take a dive into the mailbag and think how many football Big Ten titles Tom Izzo could win, non-conference home-and-home dreams, shaving heads and more!
