Tom Izzo Will Stay At Michigan State

Tom Izzo has decided to remain at Michigan State rather than jump to the NBA to coach the Cleveland Cavaliers.

“I knew at the beginning that whatever decision I made would be a decision for life,” Izzo said during a news conference on campus.

“I am going to be a lifer. This is what I’m going to be, and I’m damn proud of it.”
