'Would Love To Play For Coach Izzo'

  • UsedToBeBrad said...

    All along we've heard that Parker is sort of a different type of superstar. Obviously he's a very humble and focused kid. I think that bodes very well for us when contrasted with the typical 16 year old phenom who could get carried away by the flash and cash of the Caliparis and Ks of the world.

    With Jabari Parker being possibly a once-a-decade recruit and the scholarship crunch otherwise at MSU, I think MSU is in a position to make recruits wait on them. We have room to add a player right now in 2013 and still take Parker anyway I'm not too worried about it. Sure, you run a risk of missing out on guys but you can't plan for every contingency. When it's all said and done, I bet MSU fans are thrilled with the 2013 and 2014 classes.

    I dont agree MSU can make recruits wait....
    Zeigler likes IU a lot as well. Maybe Sean disagrees but I think you take terrific players when you can. The once in a decade player is no sure thing by any stretch as Sean says.

    I'd wager that Izzo has a better bead on it than any of us (even intrpdtrvlr). If he feels there's a legit chance at landing Parker, it could definitely be worth it to wait on Zeigler. It's not exactly like we'll be hurting for talent in '13.

    Is Zeigler a "terrific" player now? I'm sure he's very good but MSU has numerous options in '13/'14. As a fan, I understand the urge to jump at the next intriguing player but I'm glad Izzo is handling things cautiously. Recruiting has some poker and politics to it. The lack of commits in 2013 doesn't make me nervous one bit.

  • Sean, do you have a gut feeling on who would be the first one to commit in '13 would be? Or is it too far away to get a good feeling on it?

    Also, why doesn't some of the other sites list MSU on Alexnaders and Tyus Jones "schools of interest." I'm not too worried about it because it's so early but I just wondered if there was a reason.

    Could you list the players you Know that have offers for 2013 and 2014
