East Lansing — Things are still far from perfect barely a month into the season, but as Michigan State prepares to host Louisville on Wednesday in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, coach Tom Izzo is encouraged with where the Spartans are headed.
Coming off a solid few days at the Battle 4 Atlantis that included wins over Loyola Chicago and UConn while playing defending national champion Baylor tough for a half in the championship game, Izzo believes No. 22 Michigan State is headed in the right direction.
“It is going to do nothing but help us,” Izzo said Monday.
