Ep. 1100: MSU basketball and Nick Baumgardner on the Lions, Michigan football and Pat Fitzgerald

from Couch and The Rube · host Graham Couch & Jason Knick

We opened with a discussion on Michigan State basketball and what's going to happen at the shooting guard position and how that impacts the backup point guard spot. Then a conversation with The Athletic's Nick Baumgardner on the Lions' future and roster decisions, Michigan football's mess, the legacy of the Jim Harbaugh era and the hire ahead, and on MSU's hiring of Pat Fitzgerald and the fit in East Lansing (17:00). Plus, Harry Gagnon joined us to pick this week's College Football Playoff games and loaded NFL slate (50:00).
