Michigan State basketball is in the top 20 of college basketball analyst John Fanta’s updated way-too-early rankings for next season.
Fanta is one of the most well-known college basketball personalities, working for numerous major media organizations. He released his updated way-too-early on Thursday, which have the Spartans coming in at No. 18 in the country.

Among Big Ten teams, Michigan State is No. 4 on Fanta’s list. He only has Purdue (No. 1), Michigan (No. 6) and UCLA (No. 12) ahead of the Spartans. Also included in Fanta’s rankings from the Big Ten are Illinois (No. 20), Wisconsin (No. 21) and Oregon (No. 25).
Michigan State has been included in nearly every way-too-early top 25 rankings I’ve seen this offseason, typically coming in right around where Fanta has them here. It’s clear at this point that Michigan State most likely will come into next season as a top 20 team nationally and as one of the top five teams in the Big Ten.
