I was at this game as a 10 yr old. Two things stand out. The football-like score of 21-7, and the fact that if we’d only gone a day later we’d have seen The Bird win his 5th! #tigers
It was an entirely forgetable night at Tiger Stadium as the Kansas City Royals walloped the #Tigers 21-7 in a game that was mercifully shortened by rain. A crowd of 13.384 will likely disavow any knowledge of this game as the Royals racked up a team record 24 hits.
@SPARTANTIQUES I thought VanPelt played in that game but maybe he just didn’t score(box score)
That’d be quite the pic to see him in a Buckeyes jersey!
Tom Izzo is asked by @outkick’s @RealDanZak about media ripping him for being too tough on players and Charles Barkley’s defense of him, gives phenomenal answer on accountability. Watch this:
Tom Izzo will go down as one of the last, if not the last genuine program builder in D1 basketball. Guys stay, develop, and get rewarded.
Complete opposite of what college athletics has become everywhere else.
Adam Nightingale has been selected as the Big Ten Coach of the Year for the second time in his career!
Previously selected as the Big Ten Coach of the Year in 2024, Nightingale has been a finalist for the award in each of his seasons at the helm.
Tom Izzo was visibly emotional talking about Michigan State fans and how lucky he is.
“I’m the luckiest human being on the planet to have fans like we have.”
“When you look up and you see people going crazy in the upper deck, (pounds his chest) boy that means a lot to Tom Izzo.”
