Michigan State University men’s basketball coach, Tom Izzo, told reporters he was “disgusted” with Board of Trustees tensions that led to the recent departure of the institution’s president, Kevin Guskiewicz, and athletic director. Guskiewicz left MSU for Clemson University after just two years, despite being offered a substantial raise.
“I can’t stand what’s going on,” Izzo said. “I’ve had it. This is self-inflicted. We just lost the best president to ever be here, maybe. One of the best … I’m very upset about it, and I’m sick of it.”
Izzo said he would speak more about the university’s issues in the future.
