I hope you all got to enjoy yesterday’s exhibition game between Michigan State and Northern Michigan. Obviously, the big story of the game was the return of Coach Tom Izzo to his alma mater for the first time in his coaching career. A ceremony over the weekend where Tom’s collegiate jersey was retired was shown in glimpses throughout the broadcast. And pretty much every commercial break was preceded or followed up (or both) with a tribute video from someone from Izzo’s NMU days. The whole thing was really well done and a very appropriate way to begin Tom’s 30th season as MSU’s head coach.
