Portal, Portal, on the Wall

April 5, 2025: We have officially entered portal season for most of the country and it is more active than ever. For Michigan State, fans got their first taste of a player whom they love entering the portal - Tre Holloman. A player who seems to embody Tom Izzo and the program, Holloman entered the portal April 1st but (as of this programming) not yet committed to another program.

Xavier Booker has left and is headed to UCLA in a move that is easy to understand. It seemed to us that he just needed a restart because it just hadn’t worked out in East Lansing. Gehrig Normand has entered the portal and has just become the odd man out with an unknown destination at this point.

Finally, the big discussion on player movements right now is the future of Jase Richardson. Will he enter the NBA draft or will he return for another season and chase a Final Four and national championship? Our opinion is that no one knows except Jase. And he will tell us as soon as he has figured that out himself.

If you have a home in Michigan you know the importance of clearing water efficiently away from your home off the roof. Unfortunately, the outdoor beauty of Michigan means you have to deal with leaves and debris that pile up in your gutters. Sometimes, those gutters also can’t keep up with the rain or leave puddles by your foundation.
