SportSpyder - The Latest Michigan State Spartans Basketball Podcasts

REACTION: New NCAA eligibility ruling HELPS MSU football, HURTS MSU basketball

Locked On Podcast Network — Sat, 01 Aug 2026 17:38:03 GMT

College sports face chaos as a judge's ruling grants the 2022 high school class an unexpected extra year of eligibility, sparking a one-week transfer portal frenzy. Can Michigan State Football capitalize? Matt Sheehan explores how this sweeping decision could boost Spartans’ depth, highlighting potential returns from Omari Kelly, Malik Spencer, and the pressing needs across the roster at defensive line, secondary, and wide receiver as fall camp approaches. While MSU Football stands to benefit, the basketball outlook grows uncertain. Could returning names like Jaxon Kohler or Carson Cooper upset the roster balance, or will rival programs—like Gonzaga or Michigan—leverage the ruling to load up and outpace the Spartans? Matt Sheehan weighs the shifting landscape, questions the timing, and debates whether Michigan State Basketball is suddenly at a disadvantage in the Big Ten and beyond. Wild times are here for Spartans fans. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

X-FACTORS: MSU football's most INTRIGUING players could raise ceiling; Big Ten Media Days

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 30 Jul 2026 19:54:38 GMT

Michigan State Spartans football faces a pivotal fall camp as five intriguing players could redefine their season’s trajectory. Carson Gulker’s versatile skill set and transfer from Division II powerhouse Ferris State raises key questions about his role in the offense. Can true freshman speedster Samson Gash ignite a receiver group desperate for breakout stars? Other names like linebacker Kenny Soares and cornerbacks Tyran Chappell and Charles Brantley add mystery to both sides of the ball, leaving fans wondering who will seize starting spots and deliver much-needed impact. Matt Sheehan teams up with Spencer McLaughlin to break down Pat Fitzgerald’s approach at Big Ten Media Days and debate whether the Spartans can find a spark against a retooled Big Ten schedule. Will Michigan State’s offensive line woes persist, or can new transfers solidify the trenches? With matchups looming against Nebraska, Illinois, and Northwestern, every storyline fuels hope for a season-changing “flag-planting” win.

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 20:25:10 GMT

Michigan State Spartans ramp up for the new season as Pat Fitzgerald brings energy and bold expectations to Big Ten Media Days. Can his “bag of chips on our shoulder” underdog mentality restore toughness and identity in East Lansing? Fitzgerald opens up about offensive line depth, the five-year eligibility rule, and his determination to overhaul Michigan State football’s culture—while players Jordan Hall, Nikai Martinez, and Alessio Milivojevic echo the program’s new fire and unity. Matt Sheehan breaks down key storylines, including critical roster decisions in the trenches, the importance of Martinez’s return, and why the offense’s identity remains tightly guarded. The episode covers preseason Big Ten polls, retention questions around coordinator Joe Rossi, and whether Spartan fans would accept consistent 8–10 win seasons even as rivals compete for national championships. Get fired up for a must-listen look at Michigan State’s fresh start and the road ahead under Fitzgerald’s leadership. Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Michigan State Late Summer High School Reccruiting Update

The Final Four Is Not on the Schedule — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 11:00:00 GMT

July 29, 2026: In this new portal era of college sports, one could be forgiven in overlooking the importance of high school recruiting. Michigan State, however, has not given up on development and restocking its ranks with top 100 talent. This years class was one of Izzo’s best, and we wouldn’t expect next year to be nearly as big.

However, even with a smaller class, next year’s could be very important in the Spartans’ success through the early 2030s. We discuss in the show how this year seems to be very delayed in getting rolling but now the offers are coming in and the landscape for MSU is starting to look clearer.

Are you looking for collegiate apparel including Spartan gear? There’s only one place we recommend you go to get your MSU T-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts — Nudge Printing (https://www.nudgeprinting.com) Nudge is owned and operated by Gabe and Brittany, two MSU alums.

They also have a large assortment of apparel for other schools as well as stickers for your wall, car, or computer. To enter the free drawing go to (https://nudgeprinting.com/win).

If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can’t keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation.

If you live in the Grand Rapids area (Muskegon to Saugatuck to Rockford to Lowell) contact Kurt Stauffer at the Brothers that Just Do Gutters. (https://www.brothersgutters.com/grand-rapids-mi/).

If you’re anywhere in the metro Detroit area the Brothers have you covered too! (https://www.brothersgutters.com/metro-detroit-mi/). They are real professionals who will clean, repair, or replace your gutters and protect your home quickly and efficiently with friendly service.

REBIRTH: Can Pat Fitzgerald LEAD MSU football back to national relevancy? | How THIN is O-line depth

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 18:13:15 GMT

Can Pat Fitzgerald restore Michigan State Spartans football to national relevancy? Matt Sheehan lays out a bold, step-by-step blueprint for MSU's path back, spotlighting how recruiting, roster retention, and realistic expectations shape the Spartans’ trajectory in a rapidly shifting Big Ten landscape. With expanding conferences and blockbuster sponsorship deals like Ohio State’s $17 million Chase Bank patch outpacing MSU’s own, the financial hurdles to competing with powerhouses are higher than ever. Key topics include the urgency of building offensive line depth, the scarcity of projected NFL Draft talent on the current roster, and intriguing storylines for the highly anticipated Northwestern showdown—especially Fitzgerald’s emotional reunion with his former team. Matt Sheehan also previews Michigan State’s presence at Big Ten Media Days and debates whether MSU basketball will add another key player under the new 5-and-5 rule. Can the Spartans capitalize on their opportunities and close the gap against college football’s elite? Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

7' 5* Ethan Taylor Joins MSU's Interior Attack

The Final Four Is Not on the Schedule — Fri, 24 Jul 2026 12:01:00 GMT

July 24, 2026: Michigan State literately and figuratively added some size in their freshmen class with 5* Ethan Taylor from Kansas. Taylor is a 7’ big man who can run the floor. He brings athleticism and touch around the rim for MSU and looks to have an important role on this year’s team.

Taylor played at Link Academy last year alongside fellow freshman, Carlos Medlock, Jr. With the Spartans fielding a number of questions at the 5 this year, it is anyone’s guess as to how much Taylor will play. But it seems increasingly likely that MSU fans will have a chance to watch a decent number of minutes at the 5.

COMING BACK? Would Tre Holloman, Jaxon Kohler ACTUALLY return? MSU basketball recruiting HEATING UP

Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 23 Jul 2026 16:05:57 GMT

Michigan State Spartans weigh the potential return of Trey Holloman and Jaxon Kohler for a 5th year—could their comeback reshape Tom Izzo’s rotation? Matt Sheehan breaks down Holloman’s candid Moneyball comments, speculation about both players’ eligibility lawsuits, and the roster logjam that would follow. Would Holloman’s sharpshooting and ball-handling tip the scales, or could Kohler’s elite rebounding and floor-spacing be the missing piece up front?

Basketball recruiting heats up as 2027 point guard Jaxson Davis schedules a visit to East Lansing. Matt Sheehan assesses Michigan State’s competition for top recruits like Antonio Pemberton and Jayden Jenkins, provides a positional forecast for next season’s Spartans, and fields mailbag questions about who might one day replace Tom Izzo. Will the infusion of young talent—and the possible return of seasoned Spartans—set up Michigan State for Big Ten domination?

POWER SHIFT: Michigan State basketball CONTROLS Big Ten; Jeremy Fears Player of the Year LEADER?

Locked On Podcast Network — Sun, 19 Jul 2026 21:00:00 GMT

Illinois and Michigan State set the pace in the Big Ten, but can Michigan or a surging West Coast newcomer crash the party? Matt Sheehan and Sunny V break down John Rothstein’s preseason power rankings, assess coaching shakeups—like Mike Boynton replacing Dusty May at Michigan—and spotlight rising threats including Nebraska and Wisconsin. The hosts debate surprise teams, potential disappointments from USC and UCLA, and whether Purdue’s drop in the rankings is warranted. The conversation shifts to breakout performers, Big Ten Player of the Year frontrunners, and recruiting storylines featuring Quinn Coleman and Jasiah Jervis. Plus, the hosts tackle the polarizing idea of a third-place NCAA Tournament game and what it could mean for programs and fans. Will this be the Big Ten’s year to dominate college basketball?

Anton Bonke's Journey from Vanuatu to the 5 in East Lansing

The Final Four Is Not on the Schedule — Fri, 17 Jul 2026 12:00:00 GMT

July 17, 2026: With the graduation of MSU’s interior presence in Jaxon Kohler and Carson Cooper, Izzo and his staff felt the need to get an additional size to help in the middle. And boy did they find it in 7’3” center, Anton Bonke from Charlotte. Bonke has had quite the journey to East Lansing which began on the small Pacific island country of Vanuatu and travelled to JUCO in Arizona and then Providence and Charlotte.

Bonke brings size that rarely makes onto Michigan State’s bench since they require everyone to defend the pick and roll and run the floor. Bonke can bring that in addition to an outside shot which can stretch the defenses this year.

If you live in the Grand Rapids area (Muskegon to Saugatuck to Rockford to Lowell) contact Kurt Stauffer at the Brothers that Just Do Gutters. (https://www.brothersgutters.com/grand-rapids-mi/).
