I said at the beginning of the year I liked this team. I said it again last week, and I still say it. They are what they are. They are a big, athletic team that are poor shooters. What made me like them, and made MSU fans respond to them better than they have to men's basketball in years, was the effort they played with. That was just outstanding. That we made it to the tournament at all was purely due to that effort. Jans did a great job of getting these guys to play rock solid effort defense and effort rebound. Hats off to all the players and the coaching staff. Hopefully we can keep that effort up with the team that Jans puts together next year. This has been one of my favorite MSU basketball teams of all time.
