Michigan State Basketball Notes & Quotes: Tom Izzo says “We’re not a great basketball team yet, but we have the makings of what could be a very good team”

The Michigan State Spartans men’s basketball team hit the hardwood on Saturday evening, and it went a lot better the the the MSU football program’s weekend did. The hoops team improved its record to 3-1 after defeating the Eastern Michigan Eagles with ease, by a final of 83 to 59. Michigan State has now won three games in a row, after dropping the season opener to the Kansas Jayhawks.

After the game, Michigan State head coach Tom Izzo and a few players spoke to the media. While the Spartans won by 24 points against the Eagles, Izzo was not too pleased with the performance and knows his team still has plenty of work to do as the season progresses.
