EAST LANSING — Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo issued a statement of clarification on Sunday after being criticized by the mother of Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman and others for comments he made Friday about the Nassar hearing and Lou Anna Simon's job security.
“On Friday night in my postgame press conference, I used the wrong words when trying to express my belief that Larry Nassar and anyone else who broke the law should be held accountable for their crimes,” Izzo said in his statement.
