Minneapolis — If Tom Izzo hasn’t made it clear before, he left no doubt on Wednesday.
As Michigan State’s Hall of Fame coach took the podium at Big Ten media days, the first question he was posed was about how long he intends to keep coaching, especially with the recent retirements of some of the game’s other great coaches like Mike Krzyzewski, Roy Williams and Jay Wright.
But with a new contract in hand, Izzo has no plans of making a career change any time soon.
“When the time comes that I don't enjoy it or when the time comes I can't take a red-eye from Vegas to Orlando, then it will be time to get out,” Izzo said.
