Can't Read, Can't Write

It’s an exciting episode where we break down a much needed MSU Basketball victory before turning our attention to MSU Football picking up a ton of commitments. We head Off Grand River and then take your Twitter Questions. Participate next week @spartan_pod

Editors note: This episode was recorded in the immediate aftermath and misery of the Nebraska loss. The basketball team is 0-2 in conference, half of the football team is in the portal, and our pet's heads are falling off. But, there's hockey? And a new university president? And we hear the Juwan Howard rumors live on the air (so that's fun?)? And we take your Twitter Questions? Join i...

Coach Jonathan Smith is formally introduced to the Spartan community, men's basketball gears up for league play, and there are general happenings around the college sporting landscape. We discuss it all, and then take your Twitter questions. Join in the conversation next week @Spartan_Pod on Twitter and Instagram.

MSU has a new football coach with an old name. We break down the hire and discuss the program moving forward. As if that wasn't enough, there's basketball and hockey! And your Twitter questions! Join in the conversation next week @Spartan_Pod.

It was quite the week in MSU sports! Football reclaims the Ole Brass Spittoon, Mens Hoops has three (!) games, Hockey hosts the #1 team in the country, and women's soccer played BYU in the sweet sixteen. We break it all down, preview this week's games against PSU and Arizona, and then take (both of) your Twitter questions. Join in next week @Spartan_Pod on Twitter and Instagram.

Editor's note: Interesting title, huh? It's a Twitter questions reference, so stick around. It's a demoralizing weekend as OSU delivers an all too familiar trouncing of MSU. We cover the game, talk about basketball, go off Grand River to discuss the goings-ons at UofM, and preview this week's Champion's Classic match against Duke. Then, as always, we take your Twitter questions...

The James Madison Dukes drop a dookie on Breslin Center, humiliating the #4 team (and "national title contender") at home and leaving them 0-1. We break down the game, decide who to blame, and try to look at the silver lining. It's an emergency episode for a regular season basketball match. That's where we're at.

MSU finally, mercifully, gets win number three! We break down the game, react to the defense and QB situations, and look forward to the rest of the season. Then we take a stroll off Grand River to discuss possible future repercussions and litigation related to Michigan's cheating scandal. And, finally, preview this week's basketball slate! Oh, and Twitter questions. Join next week @Spartan...

The MSU Spartans football team suffer another excruciating loss to a sub-par opponent. Though basketball is on the way! That's good. But we lose in exhibition to Tennessee. That's bad. But it doesn't count! That's good. So, it's not all that bad. Plus, we take your Twitter questions (That's good.)! Join in next week @Spartan_Pod on X and Insta.

So. It's been quite a week. There's the game. There's the board. There's Hitler on the Jumbotron. But, through all of it, there's also a championship winning women's soccer team, a competitive hockey team going on the road for a big test, and your Twitter questions! Join in the conversation next week @Spartan_Pod on Twitter and Instagram.

Defeat is once again snatched from the jaws of victory. As MSU squanders its fourth quarter lead to The Rutger, hopes for this season are lost like tears in the rain. We rant. We Rave. We muster the will to look ahead to hate week. Then, as is custom, we take your Twitter questions (where you rant and rave!). Care to join in the misery next week?

" Urban Meyer & The Blue Wall " Narration by: Can't Read, Can't Write Illustrations by: DALL-E 2 & 💩 (doo-doo emoji) MSU manages to not lose the bye week, but there's still plenty to talk about. Certain Fox contributors may or may not have been on campus this week, and interest within the fan base is split. We break it all down, take a look at Women's Soccer and...

MSU goes on the road to Kinnick Stadium and insists that Iowa win the game (though Iowa, graciously, did everything it could to decline that offer). We talk about the game, we talk about the program, we talk about SD4L. We drink heavily. But we also look forward to basketball and hockey, and take your gauntlet of Twitter questions! Join in next week on Twitter and Instagram @Spartan_Pod

MSU beats Maryland in every statistical category except points, which leads to us wondering: could this team be good? We then wonder what's best for the program going forward. After we review the latest in the Mel Tucker Saga before turning to an Iowa Preview and your Twitter Questions! Participate next week @spartan_pod

The Huskies lifted their leg and marked Spartan Stadium as their own, and the Spartans could do very little to stop them. We talk about the team, and what it means for the program moving forward. Then we look ahead to Homecoming this week against Maryland and take your Twitter questions. Join in next week @Spartan_Pod on X (LOL) and Instagram. Acknowledgment: 300 references (such as the title of t...

Mel Tucker has almost certainly coached his last game at MSU. In what will hopefully be a cathartic episode, we explore the failings of Mel Tucker himself, the failings of university leadership in the press conference, and the failings of Ross Els generally (as is custom). Oh, and Dantonio is coming back. We get to that, as well. We also get to your Twitter questions! Reach out @Spartan_Pod on Twi...

It's a tale of two halves, as the Spartans defeat the Chips and start the 2023 campaign 1-0! We welcome Locked On Spartans' Matt Sheehan (@Sheehan_Sports) to break down the game, adjust expectations, and talk about our appreciation for field goals. Then we look forward to the Richmond Spiders game, and take your Twitter Questions. Join in next week @Spartan_Pod

The moment has arrived, we close out our coverage of football camp, preview the actual game against CMU, and finally get into the Harbaugh suspension situation. Then, as always, we take your Twitter questions. Follow us on Twitter and Instagram @Spartan_Pod for all of our kickoff content!

We’re joined by @graham_couch of the Lansing State Journal to talk 2023 MSU Football, what “good” might look like, Harbaugh swiping right for literally any NFL job, and why he’s him for Noah Kim. Then, of course, we take your Twitter Questions. Join us next week @spartan_pod

We start getting into Football SZN form and brought on someone from enemy lines to give a very biased preview from his Ivory Tower. @thiccstauskas joins to discuss what he sees in MSU for his article series with meetatmidfield.com

We begin previewing Fall camp before diving into conference realignment. Of course we take your Twitter Questions to wrap the show. Participate next week @spartan_pod

Mel Tucker describes the 2023 defensive line (among other things). As the college football season nears, we cover media days, Spartan Dawg Con, and the announcement that the Michigan game will be played at night in Spartan Stadium. Then we take a stroll Off Grand River, and at long long last reveal the winner of the Summer Twitter (X?) Question Competition. Join in the conversation next week @Spar...

It's a live episode of Can't Read, Can't Write (so, please, do pardon some audio issues)! We managed to get shredded on Twitter durring our week off, so we talk about that, discuss the general happenings on campus (and off), and then take your Twitter (X?) questions. Join in next week @Spartan_Pod on Twitter (X) and Instagram (where there's content from the episode!).

It's a doozy of a week, with big recruiting moves and a lot happening in the wider world of sport. We get into what's happening at West Virginia, Northwestern, and here closer to home. And then, at long last, the final week of the CRCW Twitter competition. Join in the conversation next time @Spartan_Pod on Twitter, Instagram, and soon to be Threads(?)

There's further movement on the recruiting front, and basketball fans are getting to see the freshman class for the first time at Moneyball. We talk it over, take a walk Off Grand River, and then take week 5 of your Twitter questions (if you were able to submit them). Join in next week, the final week(!) @Spartan_Pod on Twitter and (alas) Instagram.
