CBS Sports recently crowned MSU as having the top head coaching duo in basketball and football with Tom Izzo and Mark Dantonio.
The title is hard to argue against, given the amount of growth and accomplishment each program has had the last eight seasons – when Dantonio took the reigns of the football program.
It is nearly impossible to refute Izzo’s resume as being one of the top coaches in college basketball. Besides the 2000 National Championship, Izzo has led the Spartans to seven final fours in the last 17 seasons, accumulated seven Big Ten championships, and gained 39 NCAA tournament wins in 18 straight appearances.
