From an outsider perspective, it feels like Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo was on the phone all day. Reports came out that Izzo was very active on the first day that college basketball coaches can talk to 2022 recruits. According to Jake Weingarten of Stockrisers, Izzo met with 2022 4-star shooting guard Robert Cowherd on Monday, in addition to the many other prospects he was in touch with.
Cowherd currently plays for Denmark High School in Alpharetta, Georgia. Rivals has him ranked as a 4-star prospect while 247Sports doesn’t have a ranking for him yet.
Four-star sophomore Robert Cowherd with a busy day one. Talked with Michigan State’s Tom Izzo and Georgia’s Tom Crean, he told @Stockrisers.
Nearly 15+ other programs reached out. Dayton, Baylor, Florida, Ohio State, amongst them.

Cowherd currently has an offer out from Georgia and that’s where Rivals has him projected to play for at this time. You can check out Cowherd’s film here:
