Michigan State fans are pumped to have coach Mel Tucker locked in for the foreseeable future, should his reported deal go through. A young Sparty fan might have a future career as an agent based on his recent interaction with the coach.

During Tucker’s Thursday evening radio show on Nov. 18, a 10-year-old inquired about the status of his rumored lofty extension, which is expected to net him over $8 million a year. Tucker had a great response, though he admitted he has not signed anything yet:

In his second season at the helm, Tucker has transformed No. 7 Michigan State into a legitimate B1G contender.

Next up for Michigan State is a massive road clash at No. 4 Ohio State. The 9-1 Buckeyes are first place in the B1G East. Ohio State leads the all-time series 34-15 and is on a five-game winning streak vs. Michigan State in the series. The last victory for the Spartans against the Buckeyes came in 2015.
