I ask this question because I feel it frames our expectations.
My Dad graduated in 1970 and always expects the worst from all MSU sports.
I was born in 1974 and graduated in 1997. Growing up, I watched the bad football teams, but also watched the Clark/Palmero era of baseball. I was a student for the early Sherrill years and the 1996 Final Four run. I’m hopefully optimistic but understand crushing disappointment.
My son was born in 2004. His earliest introduction to MSU football was Mullen’s teams. He has a baseball signed by the 2013 College World Series team and he followed the 2019(?) women’s basketball team to their (near) Championship. He lived the 2021 baseball Championship run. He is a current student and thinks MSU is a premier college program that should dominate every sport.
To me, MSU sports & our expectations is a generational thing. how much does your age/experience frame your perception of MSU sports?
