Izzo is surpassing milestones and reached a big anniversary of his lone title. At 70, with a highly ranked team, he's hoping to add to his legacy.

No. 1 seed Michigan State defeated No. 8 seed Oregon 74-64 in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament. Michigan State coach Tom Izzo, guard Jaden Akins and forward Coen Carr spoke after the game. Below is a transcript of Michigan State’s postgame press conference on Friday.

And apparently he isn’t. “He has the energy of a young coach,” freshman Jase Richardson was saying in the Michigan State locker room Friday, fresh off scoring 17 points to lead the Spartans over Oregon, 74-64, in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten tournament. “Sometimes when you’re out there, you think he’s you’re age.”

In 30 years as Michigan State’s head coach, Izzo owns a career record of 733-300, with his 360 Big Ten wins — and counting — the most by a coach in conference history. Izzo’s 11th conference title tied Indiana’s Bob Knight and Purdue’s Ward “Piggy” Lambert for the most in Big Ten history.

Tom Izzo's simple goal is for Michigan State basketball to keep improving, even with the Spartans on the verge of a Big Ten title Thursday at Iowa.

Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo became the winningest coach in conference play with his 354th win over a Big Ten opponent on Saturday night.

First of all, I want to start by saying that I don't think Tom Izzo is retiring anytime soon. A few years ago, the topic of Tom Izzo's successor was a very hot topic in the Michigan State basketball community as it looked like the Spartans may have lost a little steam amidst the changing world of NIL and the transfer portal.
