Jim Caldwell to coach Detroit Lions next season; PJ Fleck; Anthony Ianni and MSU men's basketball

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" we chat about the Detroit Lions extending a one-year deal to head coach Jim Caldwell. Al tells us why this is a good move for the Honolulu Blue. Al also talks about the possibility of PJ Fleck, head coach of Western Michigan football, leaving Kalamazoo to coach at Minnesota. Former MSU men's basketball player Anthony Ianni then joins Al in studio to preview tonight's Spartans hoop game as the team welcomes Rutgers to the Breslin Center.
