Michigan State basketball fanalysts Eric and Rod break down the Spartans to a level of detail that casual and hardcore Spartan fans will love.
May 22, 2025: Today’s the finale of our Big Ten Recap where we talk about the top of the standings of the Big Ten. We review Purdue, Wisconsin, UCLA, Michigan, and Maryland. As we all know, MSU lapped the field in the Big Ten this year but the top was in doubt as teams like back to back champ Purdue showed signs of competing at the top and Wisconsin had a very surprising run exceeding most analysts’ expectations large...
May 15, 2025: Part two of our Big Ten Recap is here where we talk about the middle of the pack of the Big Ten. We review Minnesota, Rutgers, Ohio State, Indiana, Oregon, and Illinois. There was turmoil in this group with two coaching changes: Ben Johnson getting fired at Minnesota and Mike Woodson being encouraged to retire at Indiana. Rutgers had two top 5 Freshman but were unable to put any viable pieces around them...
May 8, 2025: Today marks the first of our three part series recapping the season for the Big Ten’s teams. We begin our tour with Washington and then continue through Penn State, Nebraska, Iowa, USC, and finish with Northwestern.
The group of teams included some interesting storylines with first year coaches Danny Sprinkle from Washington and Eric Musselman at USC. It also included the final year of Fran ...
May 1, 2025: Today’s show is on the current roster status of MSU and its upcoming 2025-26 Big Ten Schedule. Last week we discussed the possibility of 5 star recruit Darius Adams joining the Spartans after decommitting from UConn. Those who follow Michigan State recruiting know that Adams was a target of MSU’s in this class. He ended up at Maryland and we discuss what that means.
Also, Jas...
April 23, 2025: This episode focuses on two things, MSU’s season in review and the potential recruitment of Darius Adams. At one time, MSU was one of the final teams angling to bring 5 star McDonad’s All-American, Darius Adams, but lost out to UConn. Well, UConn, brought in a lot of portal guards and they allowed Adams out of his commitment. This left a question whether Adams might be the final piece at guard that Mic...
April 16, 2025: Michigan State continues to expand its roster and just as we expected, they looked to add another guard. Well, in comes Trey Fort, a 6’4” SG from Samford who averaged 41% from 3 this year and has one year left in eligibility. Although he isn’t a primary ball handler, he should help in MSU’s backcourt.
The probable addition of Fort brings up the next obvious question - who’s next for MSU? ...
April 11, 2025: With the departure of MSU’s seniors, graduate students, and Jase Richardson to the NBA, there was an obvious need for bodies to complete next year’s roster. So Tom Izzo and the Spartans went into the portal and signed 6’7” 220# Kaleb Glenn from FAU.
Glenn was a former teammate of Jeremy Fears in AAU and for a year at LaLumiere in Indiana. He comes ia Louisville and then FAU where last sea...
April 5, 2025: We have officially entered portal season for most of the country and it is more active than ever. For Michigan State, fans got their first taste of a player whom they love entering the portal - Tre Holloman. A player who seems to embody Tom Izzo and the program, Holloman entered the portal April 1st but (as of this programming) not yet committed to another program.
Xavier Booker has left a...
March 30, 2025: Michigan State’s season came to an end today as they fall 70-64 to the Auburn Tigers in the Elite 8. The game’s story was probably national player of the year candidate, Johni Broome, who had 25 points and 14 rebounds in an extremely efficient performance only missing 3 shots from the field. In contrast, MSU shot less than 40% from two in this game and didn’t help themselves with poor shooting from 3 e...
March 29, 2025: Michigan State advanced to the Elite 8 with a win over Ole Miss and now gets the honor of playing the overall number one seed, Auburn. The Tigers advanced to the Elite 8 with a win over Michigan. Auburn had to do that after trailing Michigan by nearly double digits late in the second half - similar to MSU’s second half with Ole Miss.
Of course, Auburn is a top rated offensive and defensiv...
March 28, 2025: Michigan State advances to the Elite 8 with a hard fought win over 6 seed Ole Miss, 73-70. The script was switched this game where Ole Miss was pounding the Spartans on the offensive glass with a 12-5 edge. However, MSU was about the same with regard to turnovers where they only turned it over 10 times which was less than we suspected the Rebels would need in order to win.
The difference ...
March 26, 2025: Michigan State looks to keep their NCAA Tournament run going as they face 6 seed Ole Miss in the Sweet 16 for a chance to play for the Final Four. However, the Rebels will be a challenge for MSU as they dismantled their first two opponents, North Carolina and Iowa State. They accomplished that on the back of nearly an uncharacteristic 50% 3 point shooting.
There are a number of ways for t...
March 24, 2025: Michigan State took on 10 seed New Mexico in the second round of the NCAA Tournament and got just about all they could handle before dispatching the Lobos 71-63 late Sunday night. The Lobos had a lead as big as 10 points in the first half but only managed to score one field goal over the final 9 minutes of the half leading to just a 2 point advantage over MSU into the locker room.
The sec...
March 22, 2025: Michigan State moved on to the second round of the NCAA Tournament with a win over Bryant and now face the 10 seed New Mexico Lobos in the South region. New Mexico is from the Mountain West and coached by former Big Ten Minnesota coach Richard Pitino. Similar to the 2019 tournament, MSU will face Richard Pitino in the second round.
New Mexico is led by all everything point guard, Donovan ...
March 22, 2025: Michigan State took on the Bryant Bulldogs in the first round of the NCAA Tournament and won 87-62. Bryant proved to be a formidable opponent pushing the Spartans throughout the entire first half and beginning of the second. The Bulldogs led by as much as 5 in the first half but a late flurry from the Spartans gave them a 5 point lead heading into half time.
The first half star of the gam...
March 18, 2025: As expected, Michigan State got their number 2 seed in the NCAA tournament and will face the 15 seed Bryant Bulldogs from the America East Conference. Bryant has only been a Division I program for 17 years and this is their second appearance in the Big Dance. New head coach, Phil Martelli, Jr., is in his second year and was an assistant the last time Bryant received a bid.
Bryant won the ...
March 17, 2025: Michigan State got their expected at-large bid to the NCAA tournament last night and will be the 2 seed in the South. Their first round opponent is Bryant who we will go into in greater depth over the next few days. But 7 other Big Ten teams made the field and we discussed their draw in some depth.
Also, Bracket Dom joined us once again to discuss the strange development in this year’s se...
March 15, 2025: Michigan State had their 8 game winning streak against Big Ten opponents broken today as the Spartans fell to the Wisconsin Badgers, 77-74. Wisconsin had a huge showing from their star player, John Tonje, who finished the game with 32 points.
Most bracteology sites have MSU slated for a 2 seed whether they won the game or not. So MSU will wait for selection Sunday to find out their seedin...
March 14, 2025: Michigan State took care of business in their first game in the Big Ten Tournament beating Oregon in convincing manner, 74-64 in the quarterfinals. The Spartans came out with good energy and despite letting Oregon keep it close throughout the first half, they closed the half strong heading into the locker room up 10.
From there, it was pretty even as Oregon made a quick push to cut the le...
March 13, 2025: Michigan State begins its quest for a second banner tomorrow as it opens Big Ten Tournament play as the one seed against 8 seed Oregon. As you may recall, Oregon had a sizable half time lead over the Spartans at the Breslin Center in their only matchup this season. But then MSU put the clamps down and Jase Richardson went wild leading to a very comfortable win for the good guys.
Oregon ad...
