ELI5: How did the solar system begin spinning?

In class right now and my professor just glossed over it and I am confused.

So the solar system began as a ball of gas, with some point in the middle.  Eventually, the gas began to coalesce under the force of gravity towards that point in the middle.  All of the gas particles were moving around that middle point... some were going clockwise, some going counterclockwise, etc.  Just by random chance, more were going one way than the other... let's say more were going clockwise.

As gravity sucked everything in, the speed of these particles increased.  Ever see a figure skater pull their arms in and they spin really fast?  That happened to all of the gas particles.  

Since more were going clockwise, the solar system ended up with a clockwise spin!  All due to some random motion of particles and then gravity speeding them up as it pulls them in.
