Who is the mysterious Waffle Guy that got almost a minute of face time during the second half of Saturday night's ESPN telecast between Michigan State and Michigan?

If Twitter is correct, the student known as "Waffle Guy" is Michigan State senior Nate Guzowski, and he made the most of his on-screen time.

ESPN went with a split screen during an important possession in ESPN's telecast, one that saw Michigan State take a 53-50 lead with 10:16 to go on a Cassius Winston 3-pointer.

He also got an extended 15-20 solo shot as the telecast went to commercial.

With that much TV time and a potential burgeoning star being born, Twitter had plenty to say.
