Tom Izzo's Michigan State Spartans kept their momentum from the regular season going in their 74-64 victory over Oregon in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals on Friday. Here's what Izzo had to say.

Michigan State basketball's Tom Izzo won his fourth Big Ten coach of the year award Tuesday, the oldest in league history to do so.

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.

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.

The Michigan State Spartans are on a major role as they pursue the Big Ten Conference tournament. Tom Izzo’s team pulled off a 74-64 victory over the Oregon Ducks in the quarterfinal round Friday as the Spartans began their run in the tournament with an effective performance featuring 17 points from freshman Jase Richardson.
