MSU Sports and the State of College Athletics

The DEC hosted Michigan State University’s Athletic Director Alan Haller, Head Basketball Coach Tom Izzo, and Head Football Coach Mel Tucker on Monday, May 23, at the MotorCity Casino Hotel. In a fireside chat with WJR’s Paul W. Smith, MSU’s athletic leadership and coaches discussed the broad success of Spartan sports and the current state of college athletics. The event concluded with questions from the audience and a raffle for Spartan memorabilia. This meeting also included the culmination of the DEC Career Readiness Academy (CRA) program. High school students utilized the skills they learned during the 5-month career exploration program by networking with attendees.
