per Marcus:

Star Miles Bridges expecting to announce Thursday night he’s returning for his sophomore year means one thing: Michigan State will NO DOUBT be the team to beat in the Big Ten going into 2017-18.

The Spartans were already returning stud post Nick Ward, Tum Tum Nairn, Gavin Schilling and former high-profile recruits Joshua Langford and Cassius Winston. Tom Izzo is also adding McDonald’s All-American center Jaren Jackson Jr. and four-star forward Xavier Tillman.

This is a projected top-five squad that not only will be the favorite to win the conference title but should be in the national championship discussion as well. But who is the way-too-early projected top Big Ten team behind the Spartans? The Gophers.

Yes, Richard Pitino has built a potential title contender after going from eight to 24 wins this year.
