Michigan State's Tom Izzo: 'I'm Not Going Anywhere'

Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo said Friday he "is definitely not retiring" after ESPN Outside the Lines published a report earlier in the day detailing a culture of sexual assault within the athletic department.

"I'm not going anywhere, in my mind." Izzo said. "I'm definitely not retiring."

Izzo thanked students for honoring survivors after the student fan section wore teal to show support. He said healing is his top priority, and he hopes he's a big part of the healing process since he's been with the school so long.

He's been the Spartans head coach since 1995.
