Why Tom Izzo is perfect coach for Michigan State basketball’s highly anticipated, yet uncertain season
Tom Izzo won’t dress up like a rock star this year. Or ride onto the Michigan State basketball court astride a cannon. He won’t slip on a spacesuit or an Iron Man costume or a peace sign necklace, part of a 60s-era ensemble he once wore, replete with a Flower Power bandana and a mane that stretched past his shoulders. Which is too bad, because we could use a little Izzo-as-hippie right now. We could use a little Midnight Madness, too. Or any kind of sizable, mask-free gathering where we didn’t need to worry about a pandemic.
