Izzo is the anti-Fran

[jonesy5960]

His teams always play with such great defensive effort. Even when they're not shooting great, they find a way to win. He is always coaching hard throughout the game. They are tremendous on the road and they close out every game with defensive stops. It would not surprise in the least if they make it to the Final Four this year.

This is easily Izzo's best team since his 2019 Final Four team

Izzo's teams get away with murder on the defensive end.

I'd bet a good amount they don't get past round 2. They are good but they are not elite.

That's 'defense' now, and has been for most of the last 10 seasons.

Foul constantly every possession and force the refs to whistle it all.

Good coaches know they won't, so they teach their guys to play that way.


I dislike Izzo for his demeanor on the sidelines - constant bawling at/to the refs - and the vast majority of his interviews, but the man knows his shit when it comes to bball.

Yeah. I wish he was at Iowa instead of MSU too.
