STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Tom Izzo looked at Penn State’s John Harrar as a potential graduate transfer last spring.
The big man ultimately decided to remain with the Nittany Lions through their transition and delivered coach Micah Shrewsberry’s biggest win of his debut season.
An agitated Izzo left Bryce Jordan Center jilted again by Harrar, whose three-point play with 35.7 seconds remaining and offensive rebounding Tuesday night helped lift Penn State to a 62-58 win over No. 19 Michigan State basketball.
