MSU mailbag: Two-way street when going for decommitts

Related Topics: Two-way street

East Lansing — Not surprisingly, Nick Ward was a hot topic in this week’s Michigan State mailbag.

Ward, a sophomore center, played one minutes, 11 seconds in the second half of Michigan State’s victory at Rutgers on Tuesday, and was seen sitting quietly on the bench most of that time, even as his teammates were standing and cheering.

He and coach Tom Izzo tried to diffuse it after the game, saying everything was fine, however, the fans don’t seem convinced.

We hit that along with some football recruiting and whether or not the Spartans can go unbeaten in basketball this season in a clearly weak Big Ten.
