Mateen Cleaves came to represent its heart while leading the Spartans to the 2000 national championship. Gregory Kelser, however, personifies the soul of the program. Kelser collaborated with Johnson to lead MSU to its first NCAA title in 1979. Here he discusses his role in the Spartans victory over Indiana State and Larry Bird and how that game triggered college basketballs surge of popularity that continues to this day. He also provides insight and opinion on the successes, failures, players, personalities, and coaches who came before and after him at Michigan State, including Jud Heathcote, Tom Izzo, Scott Skiles, and Steve Smith.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Sports Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44945014882357,"sku":"ByrdShop_1596700513","price":859.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781596700512_cacd8cce-45eb-40ce-978e-9fe5f8dbcd37.jpg?v=1778785358","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/greg-kelsers-tales-from-michigan-state-9781596700512","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
