Keyshawn Feazell flips to MSU

[MSUDC11]

Previously committed to Iowa State. A much needed power forward.

Howland is a bad man.

 

[Shamoan]

Boom Iowa state...4th best turf grass school

 

[MSUDC11]

One way to look at this is we don't feel great about our chances with Brooks or Kiir so we turned up the the heat on Feazell.

He's a good basketball player though. And we're not out of it with Brooks and Kiir yet.

Interesting to me that there's three supposedly SEC caliber players in the state this year. Two are going to State and one is going to Alabama. Is Kennedy even trying to sign high school kids or is he content to just go to the JUCO and grad transfer well until he drowns in it?

 

[DawgatAuburn]

If we do add Brooks, we'll probably end up in the top 20 classes. Not a bad way to follow up a top 10 class. Then add Woodard in 18, plus others.

 

[MSUDC11]

Little Spoon, Feazell, and Brooks would be a great class for one that has to be small.

The 2018 class should be extremely small too. As in possibly just Woodard. We have zero juniors on scholarship right now

I have a feeling howland will be making room every class to try and upgrade roster

Shane PAAer approves this message. 17 ISU.

Says something about Kiir, not so much Brooks. Feazell and Brooks are two different types of players.

Yepper. Best I can tell .. there is ONE player (out of 14) on the current OM roster from the state of Mississippi (guard Terence Davis from Southhaven). Looks like they only have 6 players that they actually recruited and signed out of high schools. They have 3 Transfers from other schools .. Miami, New Mexico, & Drake .. 4 from JC/CC (3 from Three Rivers CC and one from SW Tenn CC). Plus, they have 3 from overseas (Latvia Lithuania & Poland)

Memphis, Tenn. (Southwind), Memphis, Tenn. (Whitehaven), Miami Gardens, Fla. (Miami (Fla.)), Albuquerque, N.M. (New Mexico), Southaven, Miss. (Southaven), Somerset, N.J. (St. Joseph), Kalamazoo, Mich. (Southwest Tennessee C.C), Advance, Mo. (Three Rivers C.C), Madrid, Spain (Sunrise Christian Academy), Riga, Latvia (WEF Skola), Edwardsville, Ill. (Three Rivers C.C.), Lancaster, Texas (Lancaster), Kaunas, Lithuania (Three Rivers C.C.),
Torun, Poland (Drake)

This could explain why Howland had 11 transfers in 5 years at UCLA. He stock piles great talent and the cream rises to the top. Those at the bottom leave or are encouraged to leave.

I doubt he has to try much to make room. There are so many transfers in basketball regardless, and the type of talent he's bringing in will want to transfer if it looks like they are not going to get minutes.

 

[diggidydog]

Much different reason for transferring than what we used to deal with year in, year out.

 

[Wizard.sixpack]

I'll say

 

[KurtRambis4]

How so?

I had the impression that most of our transfers in the past did so because of PT...like the poster above alludes will happen this time around, too.

 

[msstate7]

Hansbrough wasn't PT. The delks were playing

 

[ShrubDog]

Aka Young Feazzy

 

[KurtRambis4]

So bc of the exception,

rather than the rule, that's your conclusion? Basically two guys (The Delk twins dictate this)? What about the transfers brought in? At the very least, it "cancels" your perception.

 

[msstate7]

I didn't know I had a "conclusion" or a "perception". I just stated 3 guys that transferred despite playing.

 

[KurtRambis4]

So you had no

point in posting that?
