MSU now has two basketball players in the NBA draft. Maybe they’ll return to MSU next season, maybe they won’t.
The Detroit Lions just might make some trades during the NFL draft which begins tomorrow night.
A friendly guy well-known in the area and legendary from his coaching days, I always enjoyed his friendship and support.

Haynie starred at Mason High School and played on Michigan State’s national championship runner-up team in 2005.
The Tigers played a doubleheader in five hours on Tuesday, and the second game only took an hour and 45 minutes.
A high five to Okemos High School football coach Efe Scott-Emakpuor. He will begin his second season this fall with a 31-game losing streak, but over the past year, he has dramatically rebuilt the Okemos program.
Do we know which MSU players have hit the transfer portal? And who are the new players that will be signed for this fall?
I’ve always thought the high schools do pre-season right.
Who knows how many fans will show up for Michigan State’s spring football game on Saturday?
