Michigan State University just took another step to ensure the safety of students. On this episode of "Current Sports with Al Martin," fill-in host Ian Hawley details the hiring of Nicholas Wittner as MSU's Chief Compliance Officer by interim president John Engler. Jack Kirwan, one of our production assistants, details the top free-agency moves so far in the NHL this offseason, and debates whether we're witnessing the creation of super teams. The crew details some of the pennant races in the MLB, and discuss the Detroit Tigers' prospects playing in the Futures Game during the All-Star Break.
