'09 GA SF Richard Howell (MSU Offer) - Page 2 - SpartanTailgate.com

I can't read it but hopefully it shed more judgment on his situation. I have heard from good sources the info I have shared in this thread but I have not seen any word from Howell on the matter. Hopefully it's a recent conversation in the article the reporter had with Howell. It will probably be an article with no new info though.

Ohhh Nick.

By sources do you mean that you have a subscription to every MSU recruiting service and you steal their information and post it as you own? I think so...

Jersey Spartan · 04-06-2008, 05:30 PM

I'm not the nick kid.

Could you guys seriously stop bringing this into every thread?

Scout - Richard Howell - Is MSU Still Interested? $

Confirmed that MSU has indeed offered him. Still interested in MSU and hears from them. Says MSU coaches are looking at him as a WF.

Howell reminds me of Raymar but with better handles, a stronger motor and a less developed jumpshot...and I'm only guessing but the gray matter candlepower is likely more consistent as well.

I'm really happy to hear this.

Howell: "I'm interested in Michigan State, Texas, Memphis, Tennessee and Auburn. They're all about the same right now."

Weird that he didn't mention Georgia or Florida. Both gave him offers

Raymar doesn't have a jump shot.

Well it looks like he likes southern schools but from a pure bball standpoint I would like to think our program has a slight advantage there. Hopefully Izzo can get him

DrTre11 · 04-08-2008, 11:38 PM

I agree! I really liked Howell on video when I saw him play. I was impressed by how physically impressive he looked at such an early age. Go get him!

Yes he does, for whatever reason (ie. brain cramps) he just lost it for the last 10-15 games of the season. But make no mistake, one of Raymar's strengths is his mid-range jumper.

If you can't make a jump shot for 15 games (half a season), I would not consider it a strength. Is it an area that can be improved? Yes.

gw73 · 04-13-2008, 08:23 PM

Morgan needs to improve getting open, getting open shots, and not traveling.

Relative to his skillset, it's a strength. Making open jumpers wasn't his problem. Getting open, forcing the play and turning the ball over were his problems. And I don't think there's a single player on the team who is good enough in one specific area that it can't be improved upon.

Richard Howell has been one of the most consistent players for the Worldwide Renegades Orange team this AAU season. According to numerous eyes in the gym, he was outstanding on Saturday morning and was the toughest player on the floor to defend.

Scout.com: Who's Next? Richard Howell Update

Scout ponders if Howell is next for MSU.

Jersey Spartan · 05-09-2008, 05:34 PM

Recent rivals article may finally make some of you realize that Howell was never pressed by Izzo.

That may be so, but recent articles make everyone realize that 1)everyone at TOS are way off base is saying that his play and ranking are going to drop off the map and 2) some poster on TOS told everyone about Howells back issues that have been resolved and no one listened.

He is now turning into a top 20 player, maybe higher. I just hope it is not to late for TI to get in there. The WWR's are a premier team with premier talent that seems to be in love with MSU. Why TI would not pursue this area is a joke.

please. Tom Izzo must know something since he has not recruited howell hard in a long time.
