It's time to really reevaluate Izzo...

We were just in the FF in 2019… were primed to make a deep run in 2020 before it was canceled.

last year and this year have been disappointing, the downstream affects of several plan A recruiting misses. We barely even made the tournament last year, not like we underachieved.

we hung in with Duke who has a roster of McD’s AAs…we have 1…not like we lost to Saint peters. There’s never a shame in losing to Duke. Frustrating to not close it out, Yes? Ceiling is falling? No lol. Duke is far more talented. That fact that as a rag tag 7 seed we took a Duke team with the best coach in the history of the game to the final 3 minutes of the game, despite a glaring talent discrepancy, not to mention K’s goodbye parade, is a testament to how good of a coach Izzo is.

perfect coach? No. Stubborn and unwilling to change, yes?

2016 first round lose was bad no excuse. 2018 underachieved too but was really only a paper tiger.


That’s his fault for pretty much staying on the same course, and if you all had one consistent offensive player that game was y’all to have, you didn’t hang tough, you all had them on the ropes, and was looking better but when you needed points you all couldn’t buy one, Tom is a victim of his circumstances

ironically that’s the last time the big ten win a basketball title…what’s the say about everyone else?


Michigan got close twice, but now it’s been the traditional powers, or a senior laden mid major

im plenty critical of Izzo. I don’t think we’ve developed a forward or wing with handles since draymond graduated.

instead of playing to players strengths I think Izzo forces his system or his way too much.

He really is, Izzo worked his magic. I didn’t expect a sweet 16 birth with this team if I am honest

I thought there was a good chance We’d lose to USC. I figured we’d beat Marquette if we got that far bc Izzo is really good at The 1 day turnaround games
