Michigan State's Carson Cooper warned teammates: Michigan prep packs new level of intensity

EAST LANSING, Mich. - An hour or so after the Spartans’ victory over Purdue on Tuesday night, Michigan State junior center Carson Cooper issued an internal public service announcement for his teammates.  The Wolverines were now on the clock. Cooper’s veteran teammates knew what that meant. But freshmen and transfers are new to Michigan Week, especially when “Michigan Week” is less than three days long. “I texted in the group chat after the game, kind of letting the new guys know, like, this is really serious, and coach is going to be on a new level,” Cooper said.  A new level? Tom Izzo already operates at Mt. Everest level of intensity. There’s a new level? INSIDE: Further insight from Izzo and Cooper.
