@ACumbow I wouldn’t mind a C and a 4 in the portal. Taylor seems more and more like Book (2-17 from the line?!?!), and not someone that make any kind of impact next year.

Roster season is here. Worst time of the year.
Eligible players to return:
Fears
Carr
Glenn
Teng
McCulloch
Divine
Scott
Ward
Incoming players:
Medlock
Jervis
Taylor
Avent
Thoughts:
1. Have to find a way to retain Fears and Carr which I think happens but that’s a must.
2. Probably will be a transfer or two out. I hate speculating on transfers but I’d be pretty surprised to see all the guards back.
3. HAVE to land a center. I love Taylor coming in but it’s gonna take some time. Can’t put too much pressure on him in year one.
4. I think fans myself included are going to absolutely love Medlock and Jervis from day one. These two kids are truly offensively gifted hoopers that will be fun to watch.
Add it all up and there’s no reason MSU shouldn’t be in the hunt next year. I hate “all or nothing” in College Basketball but next year is truly an all in type of year. Izz will be 72 and the Final Four is in Detroit.
Thoughts?

Next year’s MSU squad:
1 - fears, divine, medlock
2 - Scott, Teng, jervis
3 - Carr, Glenn
4 - Ward, Avent
5 - portal C, McCulloch, Taylor

Help me understand @JD_Jerbear - if the Wisconsin player roughed MSU, how is there embellishment too?
English
@MiFBNetwork Are they obligated? Of course not. Should they? For a player that gave 10 years to the organization without any concern and played at a level that was, if not elite, then significantly above average? Of course. Both can be true.
English
Am I crazy to think the Lions are not obligated to reach out to a player who asked to be released?
What would be the point? Decker said he doesn’t want to be here. That’s it. Move on.
Idk how this is such a big story.
English
@StephenM_Brooks @DavidHarns Kudos to you. Very impressive, Stephen.
English
@DavidHarns That is exceedingly kind, David, thank you. I love my job, take great pride in my work, and just try to comport myself in a way that wouldn’t embarrass my mom!
English
.@StephenM_Brooks deserves acknowledgement. Not just because he’s a strong writer (that part is obvious) but because of how he approaches his job. He looks for real stories (not just what happens on the field/court) and consistently treats players like people, not content.
(1/3)

@SchillingTheT69 We have two transfers coming off injuries as well to complement the returning players. There aren’t “gaps”. A C would be nice, but that is it.
English
@WaiteMarc I think the freshman class will be really nice! But can we will the gaps with portal talent not penny pincher mid major guys.

Michigan State over the last two years
2025: Big Ten champions (17–3), 30–7 overall
2026: 3rd in Big Ten (15–5), Sweet 16, 27–8 overall
This fanbase can be insufferable after losses, roster construction does need to improve if we want to truly compete with the top teams.
English
Did a video on him two years ago when he was 7’3”.. intriguing prospect
The combination of size + fluidity is extremely rare
nbadraftpoint@nbadraftpoint
🇨🇦 Jeremy Gohier (7’6 C | 2010) in Paris with Comsport, the French agency that represents and developed Victor Wembanyama Gohier could possibly be their next big project, as another phenom that could be NBA bound, should he continue on his current trajectory.
English
@SchillingTheT69 The talent gap isn’t as wide as you think. They were one missed free throw rebound away from beating Duke. They have the #2 class coming in. They are fine
English
@WaiteMarc Maybe one true title contender in there. We’ve got to be able to compete with—and beat—teams like Duke and Michigan this year. Right now, the talent gap is just too wide against those teams.
English
@SpartanDawgsEL Fans cannot actively limit success. That is an absurd statement even by X’s standards.
English
Literally have never said or implied Izzo should be fired.
You’re allowed to love your head coach and be frustrated with the lack of results.
MSU is allowed to strive for more than elite 8s and final 4s.
The worst fans are the ones actively limiting the success of the program
Andrew Cumbow@ACumbow
An MSU fan is mad at me because I don’t think we should run off a HOF coach for making Elite 8’s (he’s shifting it to tonight cause we lost but the original argument was Elite 8). We have so many losers in this fan base man lmao. These people are 1000x worse than Michigan fan trolls. At least the Michigan fans are kind of entertaining and fun to talk trash with. People like this are thr worst lol.
English
@SpartanDawgPC @travisnelson40 @ACumbow This wasn’t an elite team. No backup point guard, limited 3 pt shooting options (both impacted by Divine’s injuries), but not elite at all. Cassius’s senior year team would beat this year’s team by 20.
English
@travisnelson40 @ACumbow Izzo had an elite team and didn’t make it past the sweet 16. Next excuse
English
I’ve lost so many followers calling MSU basketball trash & a cult😂😂 lmao. It be what it be 🤷🏾♂️
English
@DavidHarns He earned to right to be talked about with the best players the program has produced. Cooper too.
English
In the minutes following last night's loss to Connecticut, Jaxon Kohler said he was overwhelmed with gratitude:
English
@ACumbow I feel like he and Cooper are the definition of Spartan Dawgs. And both seem wise beyond their years.
English
Gonna miss the hell out of him man. Crazy how fast his career flew by. Feels like he was playing in the Iverson Classic yesterday.
😢😢

"I wish there was a way to know you were in the good old days before you left them." Jaxon Kohler spoke about why every day at Michigan State was a memory-maker moment. @wilxTV More: wilx.com/2026/03/28/izz…

@coachebrauer28 Maybe in 10 years. But the Sun were just sold for $300 million, after rejecting a $350 million offer for a "portion" of the team last year. There is no way anyone is paying $1B for the Liberty when their whole roster are free agents.
English
@SpartyOn821 @AtoZ_Payton Never do anything at the end of the season. Won the conference by 3 games & an Elite 8 last year, more tournament wins than the other BIG coaches combined. But you think they "never do anything".
English
@AtoZ_Payton Michigan State bball is the equivalent to Penn State football. Good to great teams who never do anything at the end of the season or against other elite teams. Been like this for a looooooong time
English
I love Izzo, but man it gets tiring watching this predictable offense every year
English
@AdamRuffPhoto Fears was uncharacteristically out of sorts tonight. Didn’t see that coming
English
@E_Matasovsky57 If Fears doesn’t settle down it won’t matter. He is so unsettled right now
English
Wojcik remains in the game after the media timeout. Fears to the scorer's table. Great defensive breakup and Fears is in.
Cooper with his own great breakup after.
Scott and Kohler in. UConn review after the ball was MSU ball. Looks like it was off Coop.

Down 1 with a chance to tie and down 6 25 seconds later. JFC
