Michigan State coach Tom Izzo gets $1 million raise

Tom Izzo is getting a $1 million raise in his 5-year contract that automatically renews annually, a boost that makes him the highest-paid coach in the Big Ten with a salary of about $7.2 million. The school said Friday that its Board of Trustees had approved the raise as recognition of the 70-year-old Izzo’s “Hall of Fame legacy and demonstrates a shared commitment to achieving continued success.”
