From MSU Today on Impact Radio: News/Talk 760 WJR and Michigan State University have reached an agreement to extend their current contract 10 years, making News/Talk 760 WJR the flagship station for Spartan football and basketball through 2020. The extension was announced Tuesday, Jan. 19 during “The Paul W. Smith Show.”
