Draymond Green explains the time he suited up for Michigan State football

There may not be a more interesting personality in sports right now than Draymond Green.

While he may not be the player he once was with the Golden State Warriors, the former Michigan State basketball star is still an integral part of that organization and when he's not getting into trouble on the court, he's a great representative for the Spartans.

Draymond's tendency to be an interesting character didn't just happen upon us, though. That goes back to his Michigan State days under Tom Izzo.

The former All-American was always one of the most outspoken guys on the team and he was one of the best leaders that Izzo ever had. But his most interesting moment may have come on the football field at Michigan State -- yeah, we're just going to forget the Gordon Hayward "foul" in the Final Four.

Back when he was a senior at Michigan State, Green suited up for the football team during the spring game and ran a couple of plays because it was his last opportunity to do something like that.

Draymond's plays resulted in a false start and being jammed at the line of scrimmage by a much smaller Johnny Adams. He was trolled for this performance over the years and people just assumed he wasn't cut out for football, but Draymond cleared the air on a recent podcast (thanks to @msucontent on Twitter for finding this gem).

Green called the entire thing a "setup" and said that Mark Dantonio and the staff gave him pads that didn't fit right and had him line up for a play at tight end but the entire offensive and defensive lines tried to draw him into a false start -- and it worked.

On his second play, he lined up at receiver and Adams jammed him at the line and then held him for 10 yards so he got the holding that would've resulted in a first down in a real game, but people don't remember that part.

Hearing Green talk about this two-play sequence is hilarious and it's clear that he wishes he got a do-over, but he was "set up" by Dantonio and the rest of the team.

It's a good thing he stuck to basketball anyways.
