Tom Izzo is one of the top college basketball coaches in the country. Currently 67 years old, Izzo – who has been at Michigan State since 1995 – has built the Spartans’ program into a consistent NCAA Tournament contender during his time in East Lansing and has climbed up to the top of the Big Ten Conference record books in his 27 seasons.
With Michigan State’s 77-67 win over Maryland on Sunday in the Spartans’ regular season finale, Izzo recorded career win No. 663 – which helped the head coach top the legendary Bobby Knight as the Big Ten’s all-time leader in career wins.
