Spartans listed in top 5 of Jeff Goodman’s preseason 2023-24 college basketball rankings

Jeff Goodman of Stadium is extremely high on the Spartans entering next year

Jeff Goodman of Stadium is extremely high on the Spartans entering next season.

Michigan State will enter next season listed in the preseason top 25 polls, but where do the experts see the Spartans exactly landing? Goodman has the Spartans near the top at No. 3. He has Michigan State behind only No. 1 Marquette and No. 2 Duke.

Here’s what Goodman had to say about Michigan State:

“Tom Izzo and the Spartans could be loaded if Tyson Walker and Malik Hall opt to return for another year. Izzo brings back AJ Hoggard, Jaden Akins, Jaxon Kohler and Mady Sissoko, and a talented freshman class led by skilled forward Xavier Booker and point guard Jeremy Fears.”

Michigan State is one of only three Big Ten teams listed in Goodman’s preseason rankings. The other two are Purdue (No. 5) and Maryland (No. 21).
