    Created this a year ago and parked it. Find me there next. But I'll leave you here with this: Steve Finamore died today. Awful. One of the last conversations we had was about how freeing it felt for him to quit social media and how life is too short for unnecessary bullshit. ✌️

    Tucker: "I don't like to talk about bad calls. That's not part of our culture. We don't like to make excuses about anything. I think that makes your program soft and gives your players and coaches a way out."

    Izzo closed with this powerful statement: "I appreciate everybody being here. And before you leave, I hope you meet the 10 people around you and become close. The world needs it. Michigan State needs it. The grieving time needs it. I need it."

    This is at least the fourth non-coaching incident with Juwan Howard. Ran onto court at MSU during play in 2020, threatened Maryland’s Mark Turgeon last year and picking up a loose ball for a technical at Iowa a few days ago. By far, this is the worst.
