Izzo to the Magic?

Reportedly they are interested in him. No word on whether it is mutual.

I would not blame him one bit if he left right now.

Interesting

Great move. Would save us the embarrassment of forcing him out.

If he turned down the Cavs, would be really go to the dumpster fire that is the magic? Isn’t there a Michigan connection again though? Those amway fucks that pretty much own Grand Rapids?

God, I hate to say it but it's starting to feel increasingly like the post-Big Dog era of Gene Keady's career lately. This might be best for both sides.

This could be interesting. Izzo is not happy at Michigan State right now, to state the obvious. @TheAthleticCBB

Doesn't "to state the obvious" mean pretty much the same thing as "common knowledge"?

Davis is losing me. He's gotten a lot more reckless since starting that Athletic thing.

Just for shits and giggles, would we really replace him with an assistant?

Izzo isn't happy at MSU because of...being compared to LN? Recruiting? I haven't been paying attention.

That's a wild statement, as Floyd points out. There is no evidence that he's not happy at his current job. But I wouldn't blame him if he were pretty irritated with the tabloid accusations, climate on campus, and the fans.

I don't really keep up with rumors, innuendo, the Twitterverse, etc - but just knowing what I do know, if he were to want a clean break from MSU, this has to be something he might consider and, at least, entertain.

open up the door to Fife (or whoever) in a post-Bridges/JJJ era with Ward (likely) coming back, Tillman showing some serious promise and ushering in the Foster Loyer years..

I think he was going for "to say the least" but he fucked it up.

I'll be the arbiter of who is and who isn't a great American.

They are not great Americans.

Sorry Bob, you'll need to get one of your acolytes to ban me.

I know you’ve been desperate for attention lately, but please stay on topic and let the inferiority complex rest for a minute. We are trying to talk hoops here. Thank you.

TI is 63. Seems like a short-sighted/bad hire for anybody at that age. He's got 7ish years max left in the tank I would think.

Yup, talking about the people who are connected to/own the magic. As stated in the post. The magic who may be interested in izzo(aka the purpose of this thread). If the word “fucks” offends you this much, you may want to avoid the internet.

Van Andel and DeVos fams definitely own GR, if that was Goose's point of contention

FTR I'd strongly consider this if I were Izzo

I don't know what that is.. please limit your words to only those that an average 5th grader might know.

Give Brad Stevens a blank check

I think it's one of those things where both sides might think it's a great opportunity

It’s likely few top level coaches would want to come here when the president and AD are both temps.

Where did my quote button go on mobile?

I’ll have whatever drugs death roe did this morning

These ads are fucking up the board. Most times I get the top banner but not the rest of the page. Happening a lot today. I just switched to safari to see if it’s any better. Not much.

Plus, Tanfan is such a bitter old fuck.

No way he goes.

If Izzo did go he’s looking at a 1-2 year gig before he gets the axe. I think he cares too much about his legacy and wants the building named after him. If he hates his job he could just tough it out one more year and retire a legend.

Ain’t happening

Who starts this?

Its recruiting season. There are some asshole HC's and assistants who will say damned near anything along with feeding stories to some reporter to get it out there. A self-fufilling act.
