I don't believe this will happen but heck, he could flip back after a few weeks of realizing where he is going (this IS recruiting) or maybe he pulls a malik newman.
With the Lard update, I'm not sure it would have made sense to sign both guys. Honestly, getting a grad transfer or a juco and balancing out the scholarships would be better for the program in the long run. I understand why Feazell made his choice, especially with Lard back in the picture. I think he's going to be a solid player in a few years, I wish him the best of luck. Getting either Stokes or Wiggington would cushion this blow, might even make us forget about it totally.
ISU had 2,267 more fans at Hilton Madness than MSU averaged at their games last year.
Good article from WRNL

You thought that was good? Stupid IMO.
Could we go to a bowl, maybe a 10% chance, but yes it could happen. The whole thing about adding Dowling or streaking in Alaska, etc..... just stupid.
We escaped a bullet with this kid De-committing from ISU. Can barely see the floor and when he does- he gets worked over from the sounds of it.
Going back through some old threads, there were definitely quite a few big men we were in on that hasn’t panned out.
Feazell, Stokes, etc

Lard (especially at his best), Jacobson, and Young (once healthy again) are all better than those two. And Conditt is looking way up beyond them, as well.
Stokes really surprised me. I thought he was going to be a stud.
Maybe the variable that matters is coaching/development
Both Stokes and Feazell are behind good players on teams that also have a lot of perimeter guys to play. Although those teams do play their bench more, there’s a good chance Feazell and Stokes would probably be putting up similar numbers as Lard and Conditt this year if they were at ISU, or Anderson will next year.
There are more misses on big men at baseline.
Imo:
Prohm guard evaluation = very much above average
Prohm big man evaluation= average when actually evaluating
He’s had many forwards that weren’t good enough (Kasongo was a huge miss, Holden probably too), but most of those weren’t evaluation error as much as taking home the only one left at the bar at closing time.
Lol good line.
You’re right that those dudes were last grasps. I’d also add Simeon Carter and Brady Ernst to those list of “take a shot” players.
Lard, Young and Conditt they had more time to evaluate and so far they’ve paid off.
Yeah the Lard thing is kind of working out. Some of those bigs were just trying to get a body. Especially the grad transfers. The market was dry and we needed a big guy.
He might have been in the right system. We seem to be developing a reputation of a program that develops its players.
