This nugget from someone I follow on twitter is worth passing along to everyone:
Zach Randolph and Jason Richardson are two notable stars that have passed through the MSU program — and both went to the Final Four in 2001 — but Izzo isn’t exactly blessed with the NBA talent other top notch teams acquire year-in and year-out. He has to be under serious consideration for being the best tactical coach in NCAA basketball, because what he has done during his tenure is nothing short of phenomenal.
I’ve sort of mocked the world’s Izzo love affair by flip-flopping his name into many of the Chuck Norris facts, but it’s actually not that bad of a comparison. Izzo must have superpowers, even if it’s not in his roundhouse kick, right? If Izzo wanted his college boyfriend Steve Mariucci to come back and coach the Lions, I’m not convinced Izzo couldn’t get it done with only the use of a dry-erase marker. Just saying.
