Michigan Hockey vs Michigan State Starts at :51 A very silly debate not worth publishing preceded the actual intro of this podcast. A split against Michigan State is a very fair result, the whole series was intense. The first period of the Saturday game was an onslaught that Michigan relatively survived, Jack Ivankovic has been solid. How many first and second rounders were in this game? The answer is in the double digits. Is the Big Ten the best hockey league in the world outside of the NHL? Most of the time this team looks dominant but looking back on that Wisconsin series and the first period against MSU on Saturday shows some concerning trends where Michigan can't get out of their own zone. Minnesota is surprisingly not what they've been in the last few years. 2. Men's Basketball vs Rutgers Starts at 26:05 Michigan is putting up demolitions not even predicted by Kenpom. If Michigan puts up a reasonable number of 3s there's just no way to beat them. What did Rutgers even do... get to 41% from 2? Well Michigan shot 72% from 2. They've played the 8th hardest schedule in the country, what even is there to say? Morez Johnson is shooting 3s now. Michigan had more offensive rebounds than misses from 2. Cadeau had an alarming turnover rate earlier in the season and most of those have gone away. Is Yaxel the alpha guy for scoring? Do you need one when you win games by 40? Roddy Gayle is rounding into the guy we originally thought he would be. The floor on this team is so high, if they shot 15% from 3 they'd probably still win by 10. The only teams that look mildly threatening on the schedule are Michigan State and Purdue. USC is also spicier than we thought. Michigan is now favored in every single game on the schedule. 3. Hot Takes, Football Offensive Recruiting Class Starts at 54:31 Takes hotter than Curt Cignetti walking off the field after beating Ohio State 13-10 to win the Big Ten Championship and reacting in NO WAY WHATSOEVER. Savion Hiter is the number one running back in the country and he has the tape to back it up. Brady Smigiel and Tommy Carr come in at QB, they won't see the field for a while but then you could have a redshirt sophomore starting after Bryce leaves. It's nice to see Michigan recruit like they have 105 guys in a class. Michigan loses a wide receiver but picks up Travis Johnson, also Brady Marchese and Jaylen Pile. Would've been nice to get a slot guy but nice to get a few receivers. They're all early enrolees. Matt Ludwig comes in at tight end and is the number one player in Montana, close enough to Idaho. Michigan should get tight ends from American Samoa and Alaska. Mason Bonner comes in from Colorado, keep an eye on him down the road. Malakai Lee is the headlining offensive lineman out of Hawaii, Bear McWhorter is an all-name nominee. Marky Walbridge is a quintessential under-scouted player. 4. Football Defensive Recruiting Class Starts at 1:20:32 Carter Meadows is the #6 overall player in the class, he could be the first overall player in the draft if he projects how he's supposed to. Taco Charlton comparison? Tariq Boney is the other edge, described as a violent high motor style. Titan Davis is Chris Wormley shaped but could move to defensive tackle, McHale Blade might be the most underrated guy in this class. Alister Vallejo, the Mason Graham comparison! He's a lot of peoples' favorite player in this class (a class with two five stars). Could he help next year? Many linebackers, mostly flyers and not an instant-impact class. Do not trust AI in your recruiting history research. The defensive back class is a little light, all four stars though. Jordan Deck is a Makari Paige kind of guy. They get a kicker who kicks and a longsnapper who long snaps, yay. Kerry Coombs comes in as special team coordinator.

Valenti and Rico discuss the news that MSU will get a $401 million donation from Greg Williams.
Mike Evans and Will Petersen without Mark Schlereth open the fourth hour carrying over their debate about the Coach Prime regime. The guys explain why Sunday’s game in Vegas could be a blowout. They look at the past to determine how they want the end of the Brocos’ season to go. Would you want the Broncos to carry a long winning streak into the playoffs? How much rest do you want at the end of the season? Mike and Will talk about the future of college athletics after seeing the news of Michigan State’s brand new big donor. The guys cap off Raider week telling people why it’s okay that the Brocos are winning nail-biters before making their predictions for Sunday’s game.
We answered your questions on Michigan State football, basketball and athletics — on the $401 billion donation from Greg and Dawn Williams, on why MSU basketball is winning as it is and how it'll fare against Duke, on Pat Fitzgerald and MSU football's roster and staff, on the Lions, what we would do with $401 million and more.
Michigan State University has received a historic $401 million commitment from Greg and Dawn Williams. Made through the university's “Uncommon Will, Far Better World” campaign and in support of MSU Athletics' FOR SPARTA initiative, this is the largest single commitment in the history of MSU and one of the largest single amounts in college athletics history. Their generosity will dramatically transform Spartan Athletics and fuel academic excellence across multiple disciplines, reinforcing MSU's mission to empower students and serve communities across Michigan and beyond.Here is the December 5, 2025, event and press conference announcing the gift.(0:00) – Remarks from MSU President Kevin Guskiewicz (introduced by Matt Larson)(7:01) – Remarks from MSU Vice President for University Advancement Kim Tobin(9:43) – Remarks from MSU Athletic Director J Batt(14:25) - Remarks from Spartans Basketball Coach Tom Izzo(29:33) – Remarks from Greg WilliamsQuestions from the media(47:02) – When and what made you fall in love with MSU, Greg?(49:02) – Greg, can you give us the timeline of making the decision to make this gift?(50:38) – For Greg and Kevin, how did your Pittsburgh backgrounds play into your relationship?(53:26) – How do you want this gift to be commemorated, Greg, and how is Izzo on a lawn mower?(54:58) – For Kevin, how do you decide how to allocate these funds?(56:45) – For J, before and after this gift, where is does this gift put MSU in the landscape of private giving?(57:45) – For J, how much of the gift is going toward upgrades to facilities? Event Transcript:Matt Larson (00:00):Good morning and welcome to a truly historic day for Michigan State University and Spartan Athletics. Please welcome to the stage President Guskiewicz.Kevin Guskiewicz (00:18):Good morning. Good morning and thank you all for joining us here in the Breslin Center. This is the site of so many Spartan triumphs from epic basketball games to joyful graduation ceremonies, and today is a historic day for Michigan State University. It's one of those moments in the life of a university when the horizon suddenly opens wider. As a proudly public leading global research institution, Michigan State is defined not only by our proud legacy and what we've inherited, but by what we dream and build for our future together as one team. When we launched our $4 billion Uncommon Will Far Better World campaign earlier this year, we did something bold. We said out loud that Michigan State was ready to take on the toughest challenges of our time and that we were going to seek what it takes to do it. Facing tough challenges is what we do.(01:30):We are built for this from preparing students for the careers of the 21st century perhaps for jobs and careers that don't even yet exist today to squaring off against complex problems like cancer and the impact of climate change on global food security. These are the challenges that can only be addressed as a team by committed people willing to step in, roll up their sleeves and work together. Greg and Dawn Williams, in fact were one of the first couples that my wife Amy and I met after having accepted the opportunity to become Michigan State University's 22nd president about two years ago. They welcomed us warmly and we appreciate all that they have done for Michigan State University and for the surrounding communities and for us personally. Thank you. Their personal belief in this campaign in the possibilities for Michigan State University has been unwavering. From day one, they saw a vision, a university that leans forward, that pushes boundaries, that meets students where they are and takes them farther than they thought ever possible. That generates ideas that shift industries strengthens communities and shapes lives, and Dawn and Greg have done more, and we are here today to acknowledge and celebrate their vision and their generosity. Today I am proud to announce Michigan State's largest private financial commitment ever. Greg and Dawn Williams are committing $401 million to Michigan State University.(03:35):This is a gift and an investment that will shape the future of our athletic and academic programs for generations to come. Not only is it the largest in our university history, it is one of the largest to any athletic program in the nation and one of the largest to any university in the nation. It reflects Greg and Dawn's belief in what Michigan State stands for, opportunity grit and a shared responsibility to lift one another. And I'm so excited to share this milestone with them. It's not often that we get to celebrate something of this magnitude, something that will support students, faculty, staff, and students, student athletes for generations to come. This gift impacts many areas at Michigan State University and it sets a great example for other donors and supporters that you can be engaged in so many different ways to support Michigan State University, giving sure, but also by being engaged, whether it's partnering with us to set up internships or speaking to classes or serving as a mentor to those coming up behind you.(04:49):It's all connected. It all makes a difference. The Williams' commitment also represents Spartans' deep rooted spirit of bold innovation. Michigan State was founded as the trailblazing Land Grant College based on the insight that knowledge can change everything, that access matters, that impact matters, that progress should be shared. Greg and Dawn embody that same engaged innovating drive. This partnership feels so natural to us because MSU and the Williams family share a worldview that the future isn't something we wait for. It's something we create and that's something that we've talked about. On many occasions, their investment will propel us forward in ways that will echo across generations. Empowering student athletes who dream of excellence, fueling innovation and entrepreneurship and strengthening the traditions that unite our Spartan community more than a commitment is a vote of confidence in who we are and who we aspire to become. To Greg, to Dawn, and to your family, thank you for choosing to write this next chapter with us.
The CFB season has come to a close, CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP WEEKEND IS HERE!!! SELECTION SUNDAY AND PLAYOFF MADNESS IS HAPPENING!!! Welcome back to an extended episode of CCT where we dove into some scores and stats from around the world of CFB. In our CFB news segment we thoroughly discussed the 12-team playoff, the differences from last year, how the rankings, seeding, and byes work. On that same note we ran through Tuesday's CFP poll and the criteria the CFP committee uses to rank the teams. I ran through my predictions of the 12 teams to make the playoff this Sunday as well as the 5 potential teams competing for the final spot. We highlighted Duke's miraculous way to an ACC title berth via the 5th listed ACC tiebreaker and then took a never-ending whirl on the coaching carousel. Lane Kiffin to LSU, Pat Fitzgerald to Michigan State, Billy Napier to JMU, Penn State still without a coach, and much more in the wildest coaching cycle ever. Lastly we rattled off Chew's and the AI Bot's picks in our Games of the Week!

On this week's edition of the Talking Michigan Transportation podcast, a conversation about a new study that confirms that flashing LED lights, used strategically, can improve safety on curves.The study is part of a larger project looking for effective speed warning technologies, said Timothy Gates, a professor of civil and environmental engineering at Michigan State University, who talked about the findings on the podcast. The research is funded by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT).The state tallied 128,517 crashes on curved roadways during winter weather conditions between 2018 and 2022, causing 175 serious injuries and fatalities, plus 1,360 less serious and suspected injuries, the study said. The study concluded that curves on flat roads (called horizontal curves by highway engineers) "present a major challenge to drivers, especially when there is a significant difference between the posted speed limit and the curve advisory speed."
