Michigan State Basketball Is A Blue Blood Program..

no caveats, no nuances, no subjective commentary/explanations.

dissent will be met with great fury.

You'll get no argument from me.

Yet the B1G and the NCAA will still shaft MSU via who & when they are scheduled to play in conference schedules and in March Madness.

Oh, and of course the Blue Wall will ignore MSU as much as possible.

MSU is the Rodney Dangerfield of blue bloods.

I’ll need a mainstream media link with a caution warning, please.

Just for confirmation purposes.

The term has a long history - going back to the upper classes in Europe.

Here in the US we left that behind in 1776 and started using the term "Green Blood"

It was a Twitter thing yesterday. If I can find it, I'll pass it along.

I hate the "blue blood" term, because it fosters a sense of entitlement; royalty doesn't have to grind. And honestly, few things are as pathetic in sports fandom as fans of blue blood programs desperately clinging to blue blood status when their teams suck - think Indiana basketball, Michigan football for many years, Texas football. MSU basketball isn't blue blood. It's elite.
