I can confirm everything Keon was saying. My guess of the source is someone on the chain crew meaning his back is to everyone on the sideline. I can definitely confirm it wasn’t Coach Tucker or any of the assistants saying anything threatening like that.
The program they’re building at MSU is awesome and they’re such an amazing group of people‼️ I can’t say enough nice things about the way they treat others and it was an honor to call some of their meets this year😃
This stellar group of coaches got some well-earned national recognition today from

A lot of people don’t realize that on every sideline there’s more than just the coaches and players. You have managers, donors, and other workers like TV personnel. If it was said it was probably from someone like that who can easily be lost in that swarm of people.
🏀Good afternoon from Gainbridge Fieldhouse, where Michigan State is set to take on Purdue at 11:30 a.m‼️
