MSU donor files notice of intent against Board of Trustees, university fundraising arms

University donor Brian D. Posey and TM Leasing filed a notice of intent against the Michigan State University Board of Trustees, various university fundraising arms and agents, alleging they "breached" an agreement guaranteeing Posey season-ticket accounts, alongside other benefits, in exchange for his donation commitments, according to documents obtained by The State News.

Sturgis schools weigh new bond after May rejection

STURGIS, MI – A three-part bond proposal to fund upgrades throughout the Sturgis Public Schools campus is being examined for consideration next year, months after a similar, $98 million request was nixed by voters. The board of education and district administrators on Nov. 6 and Nov. 9, discussed a potential $86.7 million proposal, one that could be broken into sections by academic and athletic priority. All told, the proposal in development would see a millage rate of about 6.95 mills. The matter is still in the discussion phase, but will need to be finalized by January to make deadline for a spring ballot measure, district officials said. More: Sturgis holiday events bring festive fun to downtown A potential first request, estimated at about $51.2 million, would seek funding for academic infrastructure, such as bathroom renovations, roof replacements, barrier-free access and security improvements, technology, library renovations, classroom renovations, parking, drives and site work. A second request would focus on reduced athletic complex upgrades at $9.2 million, including new LED stadium lighting, a new grandstand at the soccer field and soil remediation, a reduction of more than $12 million over May’s proposal. A third section at approximately $26.3 million would ask for

Coach Robbie Hattan has brought the magic back to Colon football

COLON ― The combination of Colon football and Robbie Hattan seems to be special. When that combo, they're magical. When they are apart, not as much. Coach Hattan and his Colon Magi are making a deep run in the playoffs once again, just like they did several years ago when that first was the partnership. No. 3 Colon will play in the state semifinals in 8-player Division 1 as the Magi face No. 1-ranked Montabella at 1 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14, at Greenville High School. MORE: Colon tops Climax-Scotts to get back to the Final Four in 8-player division football The last time Colon made a similar run was 2021, with Hattan also as the head coach, as the Magi made the state finals. Colon was back in the second round the next year before Hattan took his coaching whistle to Pennfield in 2023. In the three years Hattan was at Pennfield, Colon failed to make the playoffs. He returned this fall ― and the magic was back. "Colon is home to me. Coming back was a no-brainer," Hattan said. "I was driving an hour to Pennfield every day from Colon. Having a young family. I was missing a lot

Turnovers help Mendon football thrash Marcellus to win regional title

MENDON — In a clash of local eight-man football programs last weekend, it was the established and experienced Mendon team that raced past an up-and-coming and gritty Marcellus team Saturday afternoon by a score of 60-14. The Wildcats kept it close in the early going, taking the 7-6 lead at the end of the first quarter, but the Hornets capitalized on two Marcellus turnovers in the second quarter en route to a 36-14 lead at the half, eventually running away with the victory and putting them one step closer to a trip to the Superior Dome.
