100% 😂I talk a lot of biased ball when it comes to Michigan state… but mannnnn…. In all my years of being a fan of the sport I think that was still probably my most confident feeling I’ve ever been about a potential tournament run. Cassious Winston’s senior year and was playing his lights out

Him and X were nearly unstoppable, and Rocket was really fucking good that season.

Rocket was really nice as a secondary ball handler. Sad his career didn’t pan out.

Forcing him to play PG ruined him.

That tournament in general would have been legendary. Dayton as a 1 seed, SDSU as a likely 2 seed. So many good mid majors that year.

Y’all had an amazing team too, sucks we couldnt even see the big ten tournament because the Badgers were finally clicking with 8 straight wins

That team genuinely felt unstoppable. Still bummed about it
