Tom Izzo knows Miami has some advantages over his young Michigan State squad as the two teams prepare to tip things off in the NCAA Tournament.
Nick Ward had 22 points and nine rebounds, Miles Bridges had 17 points and Matt McQuaid added a season-high 15 to help Michigan State beat No. 16 Wisconsin 84-74 on Sunday.
Michigan State (17-11, 9-6 Big Ten) has won five of seven but likely still has work ahead to ensure a Big Ten-record 20th straight NCAA trip.
"I realized my career is over,'" Izzo recalled Harris saying as the coach fought back more tears. "That was ... that was hard."
After the game, Izzo was told Dakich, whose son plays basketball at Michigan, posted this reply on his Twitter account after the Wolverines beat Michigan State last week: "Sparty not only whines but now just dumb!! Couldn't get into UM?? "
"Twitter got him in trouble and he earned it," Izzo said.
Ironically, Izzo thought his team had been practicing brilliantly leading up to Tuesday's game.
This was an initiation, a painful rite of passage for an underage Spartans squad into a no-holds-barred rivalry.
The offense landed Ward in Tom Izzo's doghouse for the final 3:49 of the first half, during which time the Wolverines extended their lead from 16 points to 26.
For all of Nick Ward's offensive skill, one might expect the freshman center to receive more playing time.
In an exchange with Justin Ross after Tuesday night's loss to Purdue, Izzo began by saying, "I don't care about the fan base."
The Spartans will rely on freshmen as much as Izzo has in more than a decade.
Miles Bridges may be the best player Hall of Famer Tom Izzo has coached in more than two decades at Michigan State.
The U.S. Basketball Writers Association will present Izzo with the award at a Spartans' home game to be announced.
A top-30 recruit by consensus, Jackson made the announcement via Twitter on Thursday morning.
Izzo briefly got choked up as he spoke of his father, who he said instilled in him a work ethic that remains with him today.
Izzo will be inducted Friday night in a class that includes Allen Iverson, Shaquille O'Neal, Yao Ming and Sheryl Swoopes.
MSU Coach Tom Izzo is pitching in to help Holy Redeemer Grade School as he headlines its annual fundraiser on August 4 to help the iconic school in Southwest Detroit raise funds to send more area children to school.
He plans to sign with an agent and forego his final three years of eligibility.
Why can't Michigan State get any respect?
Allen Iverson, Shaquille O'Neal, Tom Izzo, Sheryl Swoopes, Yao Ming and Jerry Reinsdorf have been inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame.
"I've always told my players that they need to dream something before they can achieve it," said Izzo.
Bridges channeled his inner Vince Carter with this dunk.
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo says he will assist freshman Deyonta Davis as he considers entering the NBA draft.
"We just got beat," Izzo managed to croak out after a 90-81 loss to No. 15 seed Middle Tennessee State on Friday ended their pursuit far sooner than expected.
