🏈 Subscribe now: bit.ly/SpiroAvenue Justin Thind, Michigan State reporter for 247 Sports and CBS Sports, explains why Rocket Watts entered the transfer portal.
The bottom line is Watts just wasn't a good fit for Izzo and MSU! Izzo stymies offensive players and wants his guys to buy into a team first system. He never allows the better players to get off. If your a above average athlete and player on offense, MSU isn't for you!
Facts. He seriously needs to update his program's philosophy. He's playing a dangerous game right now that could lead to MSU getting lost in the sauce.
I have no idea how you can compare Rocket to Raymar Morgan, but you did. That is enough to tell me that you may not know much about hoops. Just a bad take... Raymar was a great player at MSU
Hey Rob! I have a Raymar jersey hanging on my wall outside the studio. Love Raymar. And he had a much better career than Rocket at MSU. The comparison is based solely on my frustration that I felt each guy had a lot more to give and would disappear for stretches when I wished they would attack more. It was a common Raymar frustration among most fans I knew.
Its does not matter, todays young person has a very limited drive to succeed. Because mommy and daddy told them from age one they were "special" they cannot compute the idea of competition. It's sad but it is today. Look at the portal....half these kids won't even end up on A team, much less a better one. Very few get to "upgrade" their position. When things get tough....they get going!
He did? He doesn’t fit in the offense and if he wants to grow he needs to do it in a free flowing offense that doesn’t have set plays. Pay attention there Rory
Tom Izzy is overrated.sooooooo overrated.His ego causes him to bench his best players all the time.In fact, if you are a skilled player he is not interested in your development as much as people saying what a great coach he is.He will stunt your growth without question.He has a bucket full of fake humility in his interviews.
Paul Davis (Would've been a higher draft pick if he would've declared for the draft out of high school.) Kelvin Torbert Keith Appling Durell Summers Jaron Jackson Jr (Rotted away on the bench his last game of his career. He wasn't in foul trouble.) Ezaram Lorbeck ( At the time, one of the top big guys in the world under 21.) Chris Allen Shannon Brown ( Would've have been drafted higher if he would've declared for the draft out of high school. He was the #2 player out of high school, only behind Lebron James. Joshua Langford (Top 10 recruit and McDonald's All American) Delvon Roe(Top 10 recruit) Brandon Dawson (McDonald's All American and Top 10 recruit) - Had Keith Appling and Gary Harris in the backcourt for two years and did nothing with them. I could go on and on.
@@jessielee6211 so Tom didn't just take his team to the final 4 for the 8 time few years bck? That the year MSU won the big ten tournament an MSU an Purdue share the division tittle well I'm sure on Purdue bt ik for a fact MSU was one an also Tom won several big ten division tittles an tournaments boy an also few years ago he gt elected in the Hall of Fame that's nt easy to do at all so do ur research be for u try to disrespect Tom
@@jackl7487 yeah cause its real hard to be good when youre getting all 5 star recruits and saying no to 4 star recruits aka duke and kentucky... Izzo doesnt usually go for one and dones. and the one year He went for them the team just didnt end up working out so i dont want to hear that hes an over rated coach when all the coaches you probably think are good go for all the one and done players
@@brendenharvey4839 One national championship in 20 years. How many times has everyone heard MSU has a chance to win it all and they fall on their face in the tourney.
Rocket is a very skillful player. Needs confidence and development. He will be successful where he goes.
