Tom Izzo took a lot of heat, for some reason, following Michigan State’s loss to Michigan.
On his birthday, his team was unable to hang on to another come-from-behind lead, falling at home by 12. Michigan fans were critical of his star player, Jeremy Fears, and then they jumped on Izzo, criticizing him for a quick handshake with Dusty May as the final buzzer sounded.
Admittedly, it was a quick handshake. Izzo kind of brushed by Dusty with a handshake and no words which, for him, isn’t very common. Other coaches do this all the time, but Izzo is usually a guy who stops, has a few words with the opposing coach, and takes his time with the opposing players.
