When will Michigan State's Keon Coleman, Maliq Carr start basketball? Izzo, Tucker to talk

EAST LANSING — It has been one of the biggest questions all fall, and in the first few months of winter, around Michigan State sports: When might Maliq Carr and Keon Coleman make the transition from football to basketball?

The answer — both of when and if — remains TBD.

Coach Tom Izzo on Monday afternoon said it remains to be seen whether true freshman Coleman and redshirt freshman Carr will join his 10th-ranked Spartans’ hoops squad after No. 10 MSU’s football team won the Peach Bowl on Thursday to close its 2021 season.
