We've been following Cassius Winston since early in his high school career, when Coach Mac was recruiting him hard. I remember asking his Dad once at Calihan if Cassius was going to shock the world and choose U-D. (His Dad gave me a smile and an firm "No".) We didn't land him, but I am glad to see the success he had as a collegian. For those appreciate a fine career, here's a pic of Winston showing off the spoils of his time at MSU. Cool pic.

Diploma, handful of rings, all kinds of honors, beloved for his play & leadership. Don't forget he had an offer from Harvard. A special young man all around.

Something of note here. I was thinking of all of the talented guards Izzo has had at State and how great they were in collage just to have them be really average or below in the NBA. He does not seem to prepare them for the next level. He might be lowering their creativity. His forwards and bigs seem to do better than his guards. I keep thinking how good would guys like Winston and Cleaves be if they had someone to develope their creativity instead of knit it.

Jon Rothstein's tour makes a stop in East Lansing. I still hope he stops by Calihan while he's in the area.

Rocket Watts commits to Mississippi State, going from one MSU to another. Some bad news for Rocket Watts. According to Mississippi State coach Ben Howland, Watts has an injured hip and has been out "for a few months" and remains out. Get better, Rocket.

In today's win over UConn, the Spartans showed you the good, the bad, and the ugly. They went ahead by 14 points, eventually hit a slump and fell behind by 7 with 4 minutes left in the game. With 1:41 left the Spartans trailed by 5. They then clamped down and outscored the Huskies 9-0 for the 64-60 win. Still a lot of work for Izzo to do, but beating a ranked team while you're struggling is a good sign. They better enjoy this win, because they probably play Baylor next. www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/recap?gameId=401382752

Northwestern's win over Michigan State is the Wildcats first win in East Lansing since 2009.
BAD loss for the Spartans, who have been inconsistent.
