You guys have been awesome with your support of the show and we'd like to give back a little bit. Another ask me anything for Rod and Eric. This show will air in a week or two when there is a little break in games.

How/why does Rod know so much about AAU basketball and recruiting?

 

What has Rod done for work? He has mentioned he is or was a lawyer but also hinted at other jobs.

1. AJ’s freshman year it really looked like at the end of the season he would never pan out. I know it was just a year, but at the time the feeling was that he needed to move on (at least that is was how I felt). He still has room for improvement, but from where he was to where he is now is pretty incredible. Question: has AJ had the biggest turnaround in an MSU career from thinking this player will not make it, to being a good player you’re happy is on your team? Are there any others who compare? 

2. What do you guys project next years roster looks like? Who comes back from this roster? How much playing time do the 23-24 recruits get? What are your expectations for next seasons team based off the roster as you see it playing out with the info you have now? 

THANK YOU ERIC ROD!

1. What MSU players deserve consideration for being all-conference?

2. Besides Purdue, do you see any team in the conference as being clearly better than MSU?

3. I haven’t given up hope for Pierre, but I wonder: would Iowa have been a better fit for him?

4. Given that MSU will could well lose either Walker or Hoggard next year, will Izzo likely add another PG, or Will Holloman and one other be enough?

5. Of the players Izzo is recruiting for 2024, which one most excites you? Could Izzo take a 5 man class: Tucker - Teng - Sherrell - Powell - McCulloch

With all the new faces on the basketball coaching staff, what does each coach specialize in? Who coordinates the offense and defense? Who tracks substitutions etc.?

If you could take one player from another B1G team and put them on MSU who would you choose? (For the record my choice would be TJD)

I want to revise my 4th question. Since Holloman and Fears are likely going to be MSU’s only PGs in 2024, will Izzo be looking for a 3rd?

I am constantly arguing on Twitter with the "Tom should have went to the portal" crowd. Can you give me some more good points to use as the "Tom should have gotten a 5 man" opinion keeps getting louder.

I noticed on Kenpom there is a category for “Luck”. If I were to have an intangible category I would use “Grit”. What intangible category would you use and how would you track it?

I would like to understand why people refer to “defensive possessions.” A possession refers to possessing the ball, right? What is being possessed when a team is playing defense?

1. What's your all-time Sparty starting five plus sixth man?

2. What are the prospects any of our seniors elect to utilize their extra Covid year?  I'm including Hauser with realization his situation may instead be a special redshirt waiver for his first year at Marquette, but it seems such waivers have occurred in the past.

Thanks!

Kindness is free.
