token yay. looking forward to KLIF squared

mdm2005 · 03-19-2008, 03:41 PM

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.

TripleGreen · 03-20-2008, 12:05 PM

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!

GRR Spartan · 03-27-2008, 07:47 PM

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.

Divided42 · 03-27-2008, 09:33 PM

Count me in as one who would like to see Draymond redshirt. How is this guy going to find the minutes to play even if he is in tip top shape? Suton, Gray, Roe, Herzog, and Ibok will all be ahead of him. That doesn't leave many minutes for him because he can't play the 3. Not to mention when Morgan takes minutes at the 4 when we go small.

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.

mdm2005 · 03-28-2008, 06:11 AM

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.

SCOTT'S BLOATED LIVER · 04-07-2008, 10:11 AM

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...

Korie has been invited to play in the Adidas Kentucky Derby Festival Bball Classic

Anxious to get to MSU.

This is really one of those articles that you can't summarize.

Maybe we should consider putting the $ in front of the article name. Putting it after the title is just comical. Look at the title of this one.

Also there was one I remember that was like Spartans offer Player and then a dollar sign. It looked like a rivals article about paying players.

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.
