...slappies on Detroit radio are SOOO defensive about the Izzo tirades on the national stage...Brown last night, Henry two years ago. "It's coaching...get over it". Even better are the comments of how it will impact recruiting, particularly Emoni Bates. "Yeah, like kids will never see coaches get after them in the pros". Need examples from any posters here where a pro coach has acted that way during a game...then, if there are examples, let's check how much longer the guy was employed by that team. Pro players get paid more than the coaches,for the most part...and that means it's not gonna happen that way.

Even better were the comments about how it's been the Spartan way for many years and how can you argue with the success of the program? Well, it's 2021 and that stuff don't sell any more. If Izzo didn't luck into Winston after Beilein/Simpson shut him out, where would MSU be over the last 5 years? He can't get a PG to save his life and essentially ruined players like Appling and Watts at that position.

Izzo is the classic example of the intense, emotional coach who loses it as he gets older. He's on a collision course with the remake of the Woody Hayes story.
