NCAA Championship Preview, Basketball Hall of Fame, Tom Izzo Induction, Scott Pohl, Kelvin Torbert, Michigan State Football, and Weekend Winners.

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" after an anticlimactic Final Four weekend, big news broke about Michigan State basketball. Head coach Tom Izzo was announced as a member of basketball's newest hall of fame class. Al and engineer Isaac Constans break down their criteria for a hall of famer and why this was the year for Tom Izzo. Also, Al and Isaac preview tonight's championship contest between UNC and Villanova and whether an asterisk might be needed if the Tar Heels win. Following that, a Current State feature by Scott Pohl is played as he interviews former MSU basketball player Kelvin Torbert on his new children's book. And finally, 'Weekend Winners' takes the stage to close the show. 

WKAR’s first live pledge drive since federal funding was eliminated is happening now. Our goal for the drive is $60,000 and reaching it will bring us one step closer to closing the federal funding gap.
