Tom Izzo Defends Decision to Put His Son on MSU’s Roster [VIDEO]
As far as I'm concerned, Tom Izzo doesn't need an excuse to put his son Steven on MSU's men's basketball team.
But the MSU coach noted that "in the wonderful world of Twitter" people question decisions like this all the time.
"If somebody had kids, they'd have a better understanding. And by the way, I pay for his scholarship. He's on the Izzo scholarship, not on the MSU scholarship," Izzo quipped in the video below from WXYZ.
