We dug into our takes and yours – on Michigan State basketball, whether the time is now to go after a national championship, on Jaxon Kohler and Carson Cooper, Jaden Akins and Jeremy Fears, on Jase Richardson's future and NCAA tournament seeding, on Michigan basketball, the Big Ten tournament, on MSU hockey and more.
We dug into our takes and yours – on Michigan State basketball, whether the time is now to go after a national championship, on Jaxon Kohler and Carson Cooper, Jaden Akins and Jeremy Fears, on Jase Richardson's future and NCAA tournament seeding, on Michigan basketball, the Big Ten tournament, on MSU hockey and more.
Things Discussed: Hoops: We are still fascinated by Mick Cronin, even as he turns a top-25 road win into just another bottom-of-the-B1G team. Wolf back next year? Musselman clearly trying to talk NBA into existence, but NBA is listening. Big Ten MBB looks like a Michigan-Michigan State race with Purdue and Illinois on the 2nd tier, though Illinois can beat anybody—they're weird because they rely on the three. Brian: MSU is a better shooting team than they look: Akins is at least, and they hit free throws. Craig: MSU is really good, unbeatable when Izzo can browbeat the refs into letting them be handsy. Counter: they don't take many threes, with three primary players on the court non-shooters: using Jaxon Kohler as a shooter, using Jeremy Fears as a shooter, Xavier Booker as a shooter. Booker is a frustrating guy, more evidence that Izzo doesn't develop guys. It's also weird that Frankie Fidler hasn't been that good, and Calipari turned Johnnell Davis into a bench player. Shoutout to Dusty May, and what he's done with Nimari Burnett. Seth: he's not the 5-star Texas Tech thought they were getting; he's the guy Alabama thought they were getting. It's about anticipation; the game is coming to him so slowly. Brian: He's Bobby Hull! We eat crow for saying the two big lineup won't work—in our defense… https://twitter.com/EvanMiya/status/1879650374128447983 During break: Effort to bring Brandon Graham to Michigan; now he's going to keep playing. The guys do math. Speaking of Eat Crow: Wink Martindale NFL interest? Sam says they'll have to pay him; Seth says someone will because he's too good of an idea for an NFL team: NYG are 28th in DVOA and blitzy/1-high again with out him, meanwhile he's beating OSU with QQH. He's the guy who invented the most popular defense in the league, regardless if people want to claim Mac and Minter's defenses are "Fangio-style." But they're going to have to commit to him: he's not taking a pay cut. Michigan would have to put an extension in front of him as well.

Basketball After TCU Starts at 1:00 Gee golly willickers that was a lot of turnovers. Michigan's team of point guards has none, unless you want to call Danny Wolf the point. Weird game where they turned the ball over 16 times, most of those steals, and still led at the half because when they do get a shot it's always at the rim or an open look from three. How to get Goldin involved? He's not really into the game, not just on his teammates not seeing him, but it's that as well. Walters is the most efficient offensive player in CBB but he's playing the same position as Wolf. Trying to figure out how the lineup shakes out because we're not going to have an eleven-man rotation all year. [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. Big Ten Basketball Preview: The Bottom Nine to Kenpom Starts at 29:14 Washington: Great Osobor was a great portal pickup but they can't keep C Franck Kepnang healthy. Rice transfer Mekhi Mason and NoDak transfer Tyree Ihenacho are uptransfers who had high usage at the 3 and 2, Butler transfer DJ Davis doesn't really do to for us either. Injuries already. Predicted finish: 18th. USC: They got Terrance Williams and they're all Terrance Williamses: 6'7” guys who can shoot save for “PG” Desmond Claude. Already injured. Projected finish: 16th. Minnesota: Speaking of injuries already; Year 4 for Johnson is another Year Zero after the guy they spent on in the portal got hurt. Seth likes (and pronounces) Lu'Cye Patterson at PG, and we all respect Dawson Garcia, but with their only other returner being carried off the court it could be rough. Predicted finish: 17th. Nebrasketball: Welcome to The Great Mid: Every basketball team from here on save Purdue is ranked closely together. Close loss to St Mary's in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Injury to stretch 5 Rienk Mast really hurts them. We like Brice Williams and Juwan Gary, think Rollie Worster from Utah is a decent PG, but lost too much to make the tournament. Predicted finish: 15th. Rutgers: This is where I'm mad about the Kenpom format. Two top-5 freshmen join a very good backcourt of Williams and Derkack, but the loss of their center looms large. Problem is spacing. Predicted finish: 5th. Northwestern: Respectable loss at Dayton (71-66) and nonrespectable OT win vs #324 Eastern Illinois. No more Boo, and you can't make Ty Berry into that guy. Matthew Nicholson is a truck driver, Brooks Barnhizer has a bad stache, Nick Martinelli will have to drive the team. True freshman PG? Ew. Predicted finish: 12th. Iowa: Payton Sandfort is going to have to shoot, and shoot he shall. Josh Dix is going to have to take on a lot more usage unless Brock Harding can learn to score. Will be bad on defense but mid their way to wins with Owen Freeman the latest yucky C. Predicted finish: 13th. Michigan State: What are they doing in this section? It's a very Izzo team, with no idea what they're doing at C because nobody gets developed, and nobody making threes. But they do have athletes and Izzo will make them play defense. Frankie Fidler from Neb-Omaha was the top transfer in the conference, Jaden Akins and Jeremy Fears have talent. They'll be…MSU. Predicted finish: 5th, deservedly 8th. Maryland: I don't know any of these guys –Brian. Julian Reese at center you know. They're heavily reliant on a #12 overall Derik Queen, a one-and-done at the wing, but that's working so far, got a 4-point loss to Marquette out of him. Ja'Kobi Gillespie and Selton Miguel are a decent backcourt. Very mid. Predicted finish: 11th. 3. Big Ten Basketball Preview: The Top Nine to Kenpom Starts at 1:01:27 Penn State Way high at #34 due to a win over (very bad, no PG) Virginia Tech. Ace Baldwin is the latest PG who carries them, though there's some upside in Tennessee transfer Freddie Dilione. Predicted finish: 14th. Oregon is also rated too highly. Altman gets the kinds of guys who get rated for NBA purposes but makes decent teams out of them. C Nate Bittle and SF TJ Bamba are good enough to carry them, got an efficient PF from Stanford and upgraded PG Jackson Shelstad to a sophomore, so they're mid. Predicted finish: 10th. Indiana got some decent portal pickups but let's say it again: no shooting! We like former 5-star Stanford transfer Kanaan Carlyle and PG Myles Rice from P12, Oumar Ballo is 5-star from Zona to rim protect. So athletic, so little shooting. Predicted finish: 9th. Michigan 6th. Wisconsin: Back to being extremely Wisconsin including a 103-88 win vs Zona that featured a parade of whistles. Steven Crowl is now a point center extraordinaire, Nolan Winter is the next 6'11” shooter and rebounder, John Blackwell, Max Klesmit, and former CSU guard John Tonje can all play but not well enough to go to the NBA. PG Camren Hunter injury could set them back. Predicted finish: 4th. Ohio State: Led the year off with a win over Texas and a closs loss at A&M. Kept Bruce Thornton out of the draft and got back Meechie Johnson from a two-year lease to South Carolina. Added bigs from UK and Duke so maybe they can defense their way through the season. Predicted finish: 7th. Illinois: Only returning starter is burlyguard Ty Rodgers but they picked up two internationals who are Working Out: see threeing the hell out of Bama in a surprising road win. Ivisic is a 5-star little bro of the UK/Arkansas one, Kasparas Jakucionis is a lottery pick, Evansville transfer ben Humrichous is a stretch 4 with range, and backup PG from Zona Kylan Boswell and L'vile transfer Tre White have evident talent. Upgraded to predicted finish: 2nd. UCLA: Have a loss to New Mexico (not too bad and UCLA shot 5/23). Might be a defensive nightmare. Got Eric Dailey who we wanted, also Tyler Bilodeau, an Iggy like PF. Skyy Clark is not a good basketball player but Mick Cronin manages to win in ways Brian hates. Predicted finish: 3rd. Purdue: Matt Painter is the best coach in CBB. Braden Smith it turns out is much better than “guy who lobs it to Edey.” They found three more huge centers, though none are 7'4”, and the new freshman Gicarri Harris fits right in, looks like a find. Fletcher Loyer and Trey Kaufman-Renn round out the most complete roster in the league. Predicted finish: distant 1st. 4. Hot Takes and Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:36:13 Guys I want to get this out: you know the scores. Northwestern shot themselves in the foot, MSU has no pass rush, Purdue is dead as a door nail, Washington-UCLA is how we learned UCLA lost their 4th eligible year of a starting quarterback to being the holder in 2021. MUSIC: "Moving Without Touching”—Rubblebucket "Old School"—2Pac "Water Underground"—Real Estate “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra
Jeremy Fears Sr., the father of Michigan State standout Jeremy Fears Jr. and Oklahoma's latest recruit Jeremiah Fears, joins DeJuan Marrero and Co-Host Myron Jenkins to share his experience in helping both sons reach Division 1. He discusses the differing paths of Jeremiah and Jeremy, as well as how he has managed to keep his family close-knit.
On this episode I got my fellow MSU supporter Tyler back on the show to recap everything that took place during MSU's foreign trip out in Spain. We talked Jeremy Fears' return, Coen Carr's impact, Jaden Akins' struggles plus much more. Tap in

The Final Four Is Not On The Schedule - A Michigan State Basketball Podcast.
December 27, 2023: Michigan State will complete its non-conference schedule on Saturday afternoon against Missouri Valley opponent, Indiana State. This is a matchup that hasn't occurred since the teams faced off in one of the most famous college basketball games in history - the 1979 national championship game featuring Magic Johnson and Larry Bird. Obviously, MSU won that game but like then, this Sycamores team is no pushover. Complicating matters for the Spartans is the loss of reserve freshman point guard Jeremy Fears Jr. who sustained a non life threatening gun shot wound to his leg over the holidays and will be sidelined for quite a while. Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear? There's only one place we recommend you go to get your MSU T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts — Nudge Printing. (https://www.nudgeprinting.com) Nudge is owned and operated by Gabe and Brittany, two MSU alums. The business is operated out of Michigan and screen prints super high quality products. They also have a large assortment of apparel for other schools as well as stickers for your wall, car, or computer. If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can't keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation. If you live in the Grand Rapids area (Muskegon to Saugatuck to Rockford to Lowell) contact Kurt Stauffer at the Brothers that Just Do Gutters. (https://www.brothersgutters.com/grand-rapids-mi/). If you're anywhere in the metro Detroit area the Brothers have you covered too! (https://www.brothersgutters.com/metro-detroit-mi/). They are real professionals who will clean, repair, or replace your gutters and protect your home quickly and efficiently with friendly service. Mention Final Four to get 10% off your gutter work. Have you wondered why the world no longer looks clear out of your windows? Maybe you need a professional to clean them. There's no better option for your window cleaning than your neighborhood window cleaners at the Squeegee Squad. They clean residential, commercial, and high rise windows. Also, if you need power washing on your house, the Squeegee Squad will treat it with kid gloves with their gentle wash that uses low pressure and surfactants.

MSU football and MSU basketball had a heck of holiday week in the news, so we look back on all things Green and White starting with Aidan Chiles being sought after by USC. Should we be worried at all, and what are the key dates to watch for? Also, Jaron Glover and Montorie Foster are heading back to MSU after an interesting dive into the portal that saw one of them take an official to Georgia. Harlon Barnett is also not coming back to the program, and we offer our thoughts on that. Jeremy Fears was shot in his hometown, and why is he fortunate and what does this mean for MSU's season?

Hall of Fame Michigan State University Spartans Men's Basketball Coach Tom Izzo previews the 2023/24 season. In his opening comments, Izzo says he's “excited to be back,” and he says he loves his team. He says he's proud of his blue-collar program, too. Conversation Highlights: (3:37) – “We're a week away from Midnight Madness. It's important that we reengage after a lot of what we've been through the last couple years.” (4:55) – “We also have two exhibition games. (6:26) – “I have seen our team in the Top 5 and Top 10. People have asked me if I like that. And I always say no; I love it. We're looking forward to living up to expectations.” (7:48) – Izzo on his seniors (9:07) – Izzo on his juniors (10:05) – Izzo on his sophomores (11:18) – Izzo on his freshmen (14:18) – More on Coen Carr and the pros and cons of summer basketball. “It gives our players a chance to learn how to act in front of people. They're really good kids. I'm blessed with what I have right now.” (16:24) – On the Basketball Coaches Association of Michigan, the importance of high school coaches, and the state of college basketball. “It's the Jud Heathcote rule, 27 years later, that the most important human beings on the planet are high school coaches. I really do believe that.” (18:48) – More on Jeremy Fears and Tom's thoughts on competition making the team better. “Mateen was my best freshman leader. There have only been a couple guys – Mateen and Tum Tum – who have ‘it.' Jeremy Fears has ‘it.'” (21:14) – As he looks around college basketball, his thoughts on reduced opportunities for freshmen because of the portal. “I'm going to do what I do. And sooner or later it's probably going to get me. I'm going to have fun in the meantime, and I'm going to enjoy the fight to keep my program based on relationships and not transactions. At Michigan State, there are a couple things that aren't going to change until the day I walk off this stage. We're going to stay a blue-collar place. The second thing is relationships matter to me.” (25:58) – On the depth at the guard position. “I've done some things for players they better appreciate. I could have gone into the portal, too. They could have gone; I could have gone. I trusted and believed in them. I think they trusted and believed in me. What a great marriage and a great opportunity.” (29:25) – More on Carson Cooper. “Right now, I have as good a staff as I've had.” (31:32) – On how he will balance talented upperclassmen with a stellar freshmen class. “I have to sell winning and personal success. That is a challenge. Winning brings personal success. Personal success doesn't always bring winning.” (34:26) – More on Jaden Akins. “Jaden can be one of the best two-way players, not just in the league, but in the whole country.” (36:24) – On what role he'll play in finding MSU's next football coach. “I'm a sounding board. That doesn't mean I'm in on the decision making. Whatever Alan needs me to do, I'm suiting up and I'm there for him.” (39:25) – Do you feel any more weight than you normally would to give your fan base, alumni, students, and faculty something with this basketball team? “Yes. I'm not excited that I have to feel that way, but I'm proud that I get the opportunity to represent the 650,000 living alumni and a lot of good friends of mine and a lot of people who have done a lot of good for this place. I feel it's a privilege to have the opportunity to help bring us closer together.” (43:31) – On the prospects of winning a second national championship. “Do I say it's Final Four of National Championship or bust? I say that's the goal. I'm realistic enough to know there are a lot of factors.” (47:36) – You seem to be speaking with more bravado this season…? “We and I have earned what we've got. We've been through a lot of tough times both on and off the court. We're still standing. Let's take advantage of that and stay focused the best we can. I hope that I can bring this place that I love so much what we deserve and make people feel good and smile.” (50:52) – Where do you see the need for the most improvement? “The biggest thing right now is that we have to become a better rebounding team. I'm most excited that I have a group of guys together that have had options to leave and who have stayed. I want to try to win another championship someday. But I also want to keep this the great place I know it is. If that's pressure and the weight of the world, that's what I signed up for, and, more importantly, that's what I get to do.” Listen to “MSU Today with Russ White” on the radio and through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and wherever you listen.
Jeremiah Fears - Jeremy Fears Sr. Recruiting Update, driving in the Windy City (Chicago - Cell Towers). Fears discussed the latest with his younger son and his recruitment, where Illinois stands in the big picture, and his thoughts on reclassifying.
The Final Four Is Not On The Schedule - A Michigan State Basketball Podcast.
August 16, 2023: 6' 2" sophomore point guard Tre Holloman had a very solid freshman year playing nearly 9 minutes a game as a backup to AJ Hoggard. He was solid defensively and good protecting the ball with nearly a 2.5:1 assist to turnover ratio. Not relied upon to score last year, almost certainly we can expect to see him contribute more on the offensive side of the ball this year. Tre has been working on his shot and handle over the off season and those who went to Moneyball saw his improved confidence and three point shot. With the addition of Jeremy Fears as a another point guard there is a good chance that we will see Tre playing backup as both a one and two. Holloman also gave us his impression of Izzo showing up at his football practices in high school and comparing Minneapolis to East Lansing. Did you see Holloman's NIL hot dog commercial? Find it here (https://spartanshadows.com/aj-hoggard-tre-holloman-best-nil-commercial-all-time-video/) Are you looking for Spartan gear? There's only one place to go to get your MSU T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts — Nudge Printing. (https://www.nudgeprinting.com) Nudge is owned and operated by Gabe and Brittany, two MSU alums. The business is operated out of Michigan and screen prints super high quality products. They also have a large assortment of apparel for other schools as well as stickers for your wall, car, or computer. You can also buy our merchandise to sport around town where all the sales proceeds go to support the show. If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can't keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation. If you live in the Grand Rapids area (Muskegon to Saugatuck to Rockford to Lowell) contact Kurt Stauffer at the Brothers that Just Do Gutters. (https://www.brothersgutters.com/grand-rapids-mi/). If you're anywhere in the metro Detroit area the Brothers have you covered too! (https://www.brothersgutters.com/metro-detroit-mi/).

On Episode 161 of the Ballislife In The Paint Show, hosts Ronnie Flores, Ani Umana and Chelsea Hopkins go hard on the thrilling 2023 Ballislife All-American Game and the rapidly changing fortunes of teams in the NBA playoffs, and those clubs that didn't make it. The 10th annual Ballislife All-American Game was played on May 6 at Cerritos College in SoCal and went into overtime as Team Future downed Team Elite in overtime, 157-154, behind the play of Kentucky-bound Justin Edwards (27 pts, 5 rbs), Washington-bound Wesley Yates III (26 pts) and the Michigan St.-bound duo of Coen Carr (23 pts, 18 rbs) and Jeremy Fears (11 pts, 9 asts, 2 stls). Team Elite was led by Marcus Adams, who broke the event scoring record with 44 points (8-14 3-pointers, 4 rbs, 5 asts) and by Duke-bound Jared McCain and Boise St-bound Andrew Meadow, who both finished with 22 points. Ani gives his take on the event as a guest analyst spearheaded by the record-breaking performance of Adams, while Ron breaks down the contest, the standouts performers of the event and the competitive nature of the all-star game spear-headed by Carr and Fears. Why were the national all-star games competitive in nature compared to recent seasons? What else stood out about the event? Ron and Chelsea also break down Bronny James' commitment to USC? Is he ever going to get a fair shake in regards to his status as a legitimate NBA Prospect? The ITP Crew also goes hard on the NBA Playoffs, where it looks like the Lakers and Heat will advance to the conference finals. What has been the difference in those two clubs taking a 3-1 series lead and the crew gives their take on the Nuggets-Suns and Celtics-76ers series. Are the Warriors done as a dynasty? Did they make a mistake in getting rid of James Wiseman and offering a big contract to Jordan Poole? The crew also discusses CP3's role with the Suns and how fortunes for these teams can change rather quickly. Chelsea breaks down Bronny James' commitment to USC and what it means. Is he really going to be a high 2024 NBA Draft choice? Will he ever meet expectations? The crew also discuss the upcoming 2023 NBA Draft and how fortunes can change rather quickly by making their right or wrong choice in the lottery. Ani and Chelsea also discuss the NBA All-Rookie teams and how that correlated to their 2022 NBA Draft position, led by No. 1 pick and Rookie of the Year Paolo Banchero of the Orlando Magic. Ani gives some insight on reason why some teams might hit or miss at the position they fall at. The crew gives some terrific insight on the grassroots and pro level in this week's podcast, so make sure to tune in to Episode 161 from start to finish!
