Welcome to MSU Korie, we can hardly wait! 
It's really Awesome to think what KLIF and KLIF2 will do for MSU next year:
This kid can really breakdown and destroy defenses with his passing game.

Either Korie is closer to 6' or Delvon is closer to 6'5".

Yeah, we'll have five players (KLIF, KLIF2, Chris Allen, Delvon Roe and Draymond Green) who can drive to the basket and create their own shot (without traveling ) next year!

Green has a lot of work to do before he's too much driving to the hoop next season.
For the first time in his life he will be required to be in shape and be on a team where he isn't indispensable. Roe and Lucious along with Green will all learn to play IZZO defense to match their offensive skills

I think you could put Summers in that group as well.

You're right, I forgot about Summers. Regarding Draymond, don't forget Indiana's got a porker freshman who got minutes, so he won't be the only one in the league working on getting in better shape. I guess time will tell whether Green is redshirted or not, but given the culture of playing freshmen now instead of later throughout the country, he may very well get limited play/development time early instead of later.

And Draymond is nowhere near as big as him. People read how he's "out of shape" and think he's some offensive lineman. The guy weighs about 240 pounds right now. He's just not toned and has a lot of baby fat. He said that he wanted to be about 225.

Korie Lucious  is in great shape and will be an outstanding addition to our team. What I love about his talent is that he adds yet another demension to the team's skill-set that will make MSU even more dangerous, he's a very gifted passer and adds another lethal 3-pt shooter to the roster.

I'm starting to get a little concerned with the size of our guys on the perimiter. We need some length out there to defend.....Memphis was able to really expose this probelm...

Anxious to get to MSU.

I talked to a guy from Milwaukee that had seen Lucious play several times. He indicated he's a streak shooter not a lethal shooter by any means. He indicated he shot a low percentage from distance. He did say he was a blur with the ball.
Most people have never seen him play. We'll see what we have in the fall.

Sounds a lot like DEEBROWNISFAST. If Allen can become more like SHAWNRESPERTCANSHOOT (which we expect him to), I think the backcourt will be nice.

I'll take this evaluation plus what we 'can see' in the video above over the opinion of someone who may have caught him in games when he wasn't shooting well. He certainly seemed to have complete command of his jump shot from 3pt range.
Well, the good news is he's anxious to make that left turn off of Grand River Blvd., unto the MSU campus AND we'll soon see.
With the preseason schedule Izzo has put together  , we'll know REAL early what we're going to get out of this team before conference play begins.

We'll see. He's already been tagged as the best point-guard coming into the B10 next year. Whatever he does well consistently, must be pretty impressive.

Exactly what we need, a guy who can create a shot and take it to the hoop or kick it out to Allen!
