Happy birthday, Jud: Counting down the 9 biggest wins of Michigan State’s Heathcote era as he turns 90
A little more than 40 years ago, Jud Heathcote took the men’s basketball coaching job at Michigan State. A little more than 22 years ago, he retired. Between those two points, he led the Spartans to 339 wins, three Big Ten championships and a national title. On Saturday, Heathcote celebrates his 90th birthday. Counting down from 90 to one would be quite tedious, but in recognition of a Hall of Fame legacy, we have put together the nine biggest wins of the Heathcote era, one for each decade of a long life.
