Izzo hints Jaxon Kohler WON’T return to MSU
- Thread starter DirtyHarry
- Start date
Per Joe Adam's Jaxson is taking over the family lawn mower engine empire.
Makes sense. He's trying to get the biggest payday he can. And maybe showcase on a bigger stage than MSU. Doubt he's making the NBA at 23-24, via the lottery/1st round, no matter what though.
I will gladly eat my fkn words if Kohler ends up a Wildcat 
Damn it's exciting just to think it just might happen.
The connection goes back further then I thought.
Kohler would make us a championship caliber team, no doubt in my mind

Yeah, would love Kohler. Wasn't there scuttlebut last year that Hall had attitude issues at auburn?
No question about it. We are a dark horse now IMO. Kohler would make our starting 5 as good as anyone in the nation(including Florida) and we would be a solid 10 deepI will gladly eat my fkn words if Kohler ends up a Wildcat

My auburn fan friend said it was. But dudes a talent. Its win big or go home for pope this coming season. So worth the risk idk.
Get one of Kohler, Mitchell or Hall and let's roll
Pearl suspended him last season at one point.
"He's out indefinitely," Pearl said. "Key did not live up to the standard and expectations of our program this week. It's been addressed, right now, moving forward."

I legit think we get one of those 3
Yep. But championship teams usually have rotations that only go seven or eight deep. I have a feeling the come mid-season, we will have a lot of dissatisfied players.
I generally agree with this, but we almost went 40-0 with the deepest roster in the history of CBB.
Yeah, but that team had an overwhelming level of talent. There's several players on this team that couldn't crack the roster on that 2015 team.
Not for me. I feel that last season’s failure was a dysfunctional roster and this year’s seems like a more humble, hard working group. I wouldn’t take the chance of messing that up.
Kohler fills a need and fits this team better.
They won't be among the top eight who are playing, so they can deal with it
If we get Kohler, Zoom, Momcilovic, Kohler and Moreno would all be able to play for that team. And you are talking about the most talented team in the last 30 years
Wiki says born in American Fork, Utah. Went to 4 different high schools. Utah, Nevada, back to Utah then an academy in So Cal.
So yeah looks like he spent most of his life in Utah.
Agree. These guys are pros now, so I don't really feel sorry for any player that isn't good enough to contribute. Put your best guys on the floor and win.
Thats 100% right, and should always be the case, NIL or not. This is D1 college basketball. One of my Son's was a two time All American in college baseball. He wasn't promised a starting job and said no one else ever was either. The coaches only said "If you can hit, you won't sit". When you are the University of Kentucky basketball team, there should only be one consideration, and that is winning. If you want to play 11 players early to figure things out and save legs, fine, but when it comes to conference, I don't care if the starters play 35 minutes a night. They are 18-23 year olds who play a couple of times a week, they'll be alright
And the 2015 team rotation was shortened as the season went on. Poy injury changed things.
Wow, did not know that, thanks for the update. If that is not a red flag I don't know what is. Surely that is part of the decision-making for us.
The Mormon connection is strong, I think we might have a shot at him as well as anyone.
Would be a hell of a 15th player.

His family made all their money in the kitchen and bathroom faucets industry.
We are 0-2 against BYU this year but it was obvious Wright did it to get more money and Chandler was always leaving it seemed because of his wife.
I never understand the small rotation argument. Plenty of great teams went like 7 players deep. Hell Calipari’s teams mainly played 7 guys most games. The UConn team that won with Kemba played like 7 guys all game. They played like 6 games in a row before the tourney too.
Zyon Hawthorne, Jerone Morton, and Reece Potter would be playing behind Dominique Hawkins and Derek Willis.
And you’ve also had very deep teams win titles as well like 2026 Michigan, 1998 and 1996 Kentucky. I think quality of depth matters much more than quantity of depth.
Agreed, I’d much rather have 7 NBA players vs. 10-11 mid tier college players.
I think when you start looking at most championship rosters, you really only need one, maybe two NBA players and a bunch of quality role players. There’s only one ball. I actually combed through all the rosters at one point and you don’t even NEED a lottery pick, although having one helps.
Nope you don’t but just saying if I had a choice I’d take high end players but not many of them vs. a lot of options of players who are all about the same level of weaker starters or bench players.
