Summary

We opened with our takes — on the drama at Michigan State, with President Kevin Guskiewicz returning and AD J Batt's departurne to Kentucky, on what to make of the Tigers, on the impact of the World Cup and more. Then we dug into listener takes on MSU's administration, MSU basketball, the mess at Michigan, the Tigers, Lions, lots of World Cup and more (52:00).
