Xavier Booker Announces MSU Exodus

Earlier this afternoon, Xavier Booker announced he was entering his name in the transfer portal. Understandably, this is not coming as a surprise to many of us in Spartan Nation. That being said, I still feel obligated to share this brief story of how I knew this was going to happen. On Sunday, after the loss to Auburn went final, the MSU team went into their locker room and the door was shut for a 15-minute “cooling off” period. After that, there was a press conference featuring Jaden Akins, Jase Richardson, Jaxon Kohler, and Coach Tom Izzo. I know many of you have seen video of that, and if you did, you know how emotional the three Spartan players on that stage were.
