Good read on Nix from prepspotlight. Sam Hosey and Vince Baldwin know their **** and they love the kid.

"But after his performance in Pitt, Nix was on the most-wanted list of several schools looking for a center. Aside from MSU the list included Ohio State, Tennessee, Pitt, Iowa and Marquette."

"Nix said he wasn’t really aware that so many schools were interested in him. In fact, last weekend at the Pitt Jam fest, Pitt Panther big man DeJuan Blair came over and tried to recruit Nix."

The kid is improving very fast. Anyone who saw Al Horford in HS knows how fast post players can improve. He has the work ethic, he has the intangibles for a big man, and he really, really wants to be a Spartan. Great get by Izzo.
