What Happened at Moneyball and Freshmen Thoughts
The Final Four Is Not On The Schedule - A Podcast Discussing Michigan State Basketball.About this episode
July 26, 2023: Lansing's annual pro-am basketball tournament that features Michigan State's roster, Moneyball, is happening again this year. This year's free to the public event at Holt High School allows for all Spartan fans an opportunity to get an early glimpse of the incoming freshmen and a peek at how last year's players are progressing. As always, defense is optional at Moneyball so there's only so much that you can take away from the tournament. Many remember the summer that Tum Tum Nairn torched the nets from 3 only to struggle to score the following year during the regular season. So evaluations are best taken with a big grain of salt. However, there are things that can be discerned from what we see. We can evaluate the body conditioning of players, their ability to shoot (when wide open), athleticism, and their health. Oh, and can they dunk? On all those counts, MSU looks ready for next year and returning veterans will be joined by some very talented Freshmen including two McDonald's All-Americans, freak athlete Coen Carr, and sharpshooter Gehrig Normand. The last two put on a show with Normand hitting 3s and Carr putting down unbelievable dunk after unbelievable dunk. It's only Moneyball but the future certainly looks bright for this squad.
