MSU beats Maryland in every statistical category except points, which leads to us wondering: could this team be good? We then wonder what's best for the program going forward.
After we review the latest in the Mel Tucker Saga before turning to an Iowa Preview and your Twitter Questions! Participate next week @spartan_pod

Big Happy; Big Mad & Twitter Questions Part Two

The summer is in full swing! Jonathan Smith spent some time in front of the media, but Tom Izzo is still mum on the coaching search. We discuss it all, continue our conversation on the House settlement, and then we kick off the summer Twitter competition!

The Heat is On: Portal Rivalries & Twitter Question Competition

In this episode, we discuss Izzo's search for an assistant coach, Friday night MSU football games, and the passing of Bill Walton before we get to the meat of the conversation - House v. NCAA's settlement agreement. We breakdown the payment to athletes, the impact on smaller institutions, the role of Title IX, and the potential changes to the transfer portal. It's a lot!
And of course we wrap with your Twitter Questions!

"Burning Down the House"

MSU is starting to throw around its NIL dollar in the transfer portal, sitting pretty at #11 in the nation according to 247. Alan Haller goes on the record concerning a number of pertinent topics, and it it looks like the NCAA is going to settle its antitrust lawsuits. 


And, as always, we take your Twitter questions. Join in next week (if only to practice for the summer Twitter competition) @ Spartan_Pod on X(!!!) and Instagram.

The One Where We Like the Portal

It’s a lively Can’t Read, Can’t Write as we dive into MSU Football recruiting and transfer activity before turning our attention to rumors that Izzo is grabbing a center from the portal! 


We then head Off Grand River to discuss a recent poll on fan interest impacted by NIL and the transfer portal. We of course finish with your Twitter Questions.
