Kennesaw State wins a title tonight and South Florida plays for another title tomorrow. That brings one person to my mind --- Amir Abdur-Rahim. The college basketball world misses you old friend. Love Wins.

This isn't just about the wins, it’s about the way they do it. Jeremy Fears Jr. and Coen Carr bought into Tom Izzo’s plan and now the leadership’s louder, the dunks are crazier, the vision’s crystal clear. The Spartan Dawgs cover SLAMU: slam.ly/msu

Jaxon Kohler and Carson Cooper came to Michigan State 4 years ago and believed in Tom Izzo’s process. Staying at one school for 4 years is rare these days, but they did. It’s time we celebrate them a little more. spartanavenue.com/jaxon-kohler-c…

USF is a terrifying first round matchup for any power team if they win the AAC. Its very rare to see a mid major with as much power level athleticism, style & talent.🧵 @USFMBB

Jeremy Fears Jr. got the best of Keaton Wagler tonight 👀 Fears: • 26 PTS • 15 ASTs • 2 TOs Wagler: • 16 PTS • 2/16 FG • 2/8 3PT • 3 TOs Love him or hate him, you still watched.

@AndrewTalksHoop my goat, I hope to see you at the game

This Mich vs MSU matchup might be the best matchup in all college basketball this year. -the new wave of transfer portal vs recruiting and developing -a young coach on the path of greatness vs the man he hasn't beaten, who has already acheived it -offense that's high scoring, efficient, carefree, and spread out vs the structure and physicality of the MSU defense Not to mention, the stakes within the conference and the antics from last year. Get your popcorn ready cause all the storylines and momentum collide in East Lansing tomorrow. I'll be there!!

Michigan State’s Jeremy Fears Jr. TAKES OVER in the Second Half at the RAC 😤 29 PTS *Career-High* 3 REB 9 AST 6/12 FG 16/17 FT 74.4% TS Leads MSU to a 12-pt comeback win in OT. Continuing to build his case for B1G POTY.

I take pride in keeping the fire going

Michigan State PG Jeremy Fears Jr. over the past eight games: 17.3 PTS/Game 8.4 AST 3 Double-doubles 51.2% FG 91.5% FT Career-high SEVENTEEN assists today 🤯 (most since ‘00 Cleaves vs Michigan - 20) All-American. B1G POTY. Cousy Award. 🗣️

MASTERCLASS from Izzo & his staff developing a player that was hardly recruited. Now, he is one of the best defensive bigs in the country & his offense game is coming along as well. No one expected Carson Cooper to be this good as a senior, but here we are! Via @AndrewTalksHoop

Kenneth Walker to Tom Brady: “Go Green”😂 5 TDs | 197 rushing yards | 23 carries He’s still running.

Michigan State just passed Michigan to become the No. 1 defense in the country on KenPom 🟢⚪️

@AndrewTalksHoop His impact on the game cannot be understated. Love that guy

man it is just ALL the little things with Jordan Scott. He gets the deflection on the back door, but he is also the first to give Teng an angle to pass and avoid a tie up. Teng then hits a three on the other end within about 10 seconds of this play

Scott is getting more and more comfortable out there. I don't advocate shooting after the whistle often, but this guy is dying to find his rhythm from beyond the arc. The practice shot from the corner didn't hurt to dial things in for the next live rep within a minute. Also this is why Ben Wallace and KG started blocking these after whistle attempts. They matter - especially if a shooter sees it go down, but either way it's a rep.

@Slhums_ 100% agree, and I’ll root for most* former Spartans. That said, people shouldn’t expect me to passionately root for them with the same fervor I once did.

Ill say what MSU parents cant A-lot of these kids we love in the last week have been talked to, as far as production and NIL… a-lot of contracts have been renegotiated, kids are testing the water now because of that ( rightfully so ) Some on the other hands HAVE been asked to leave. And some, like a few older guys dont really want to go through another rebuild and another coaching change. We cant just automatically ASSUME everything is NIL based, sometimes it is, and sometimes it really isn’t. This new staffs approach and evaluation is completely different from Jonathan Smith, but at the end of the day we went 4-8. Trust the process, i mean, do we really have a choice as spartan fans?

@CountryMichSt it’s like this fanbase doesn’t watch the games

I mean when is Coen Carr going to get better at basketball

@HoopsSpartans once again, I really don’t like this fanbase sometimes.

@DETszn Shmeckles and doubloons I fear

Tre Holloman plays the exact same role at NC State as he did at MSU… with maybe slightly more minutes on a bubble tournament team I’ll just never understand it

@CountryMichSt I’m convinced this fanbase has memory loss. Are we forgetting the run he had in March 9 months ago? Root for the human highlight reel that is our starting small forward or just shut up.

@andrewtalkshoop Happy birthday my king

Guys I’m getting old, but I will say without a doubt last year was the best year of my life.

We rock with coach because coach rock with us 🫡
