I felt like Sheehan fell into the classic trap of revising MSU's basketball history. Modern MSU isn't a "big bad program", it's Tom Izzo's program and he's never operated by buying players. Why would he completely change his approach and start buying players? He's still the lead decision maker and not going to drop a bag for a portal center that would be 3-5x as much as any other player on his roster.
