Coach Tom Izzo agreed to terms on a new contract, MSU Vice President and Director of Athletics Alan Haller announced Thursday. The contract will require formal approval by the MSU Board of Trustees at their next meeting (Sept. 9, 2022)
The 2022-23 season will mark Izzo’s 28th year as head coach on the Spartan sideline. A 2016 inductee into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame, he’s already established his status as one of the game’s all-time greats. The new contract serves as a reminder that he’s still looking to reach even greater heights.
Izzo’s list of accomplishments includes the 2000 NCAA National Championship, 10 regular-season Big Ten Championships, six Big Ten Tournament titles, eight Final Four appearances and eight National Coach of the Year awards. He has guided Michigan State to a Big Ten-record 24 straight NCAA Tournament appearances, while also equaling the record for most NCAA Tournament appearances by a Division I men’s coach. Izzo’s eight Final Four appearances rank fifth in college basketball history and first among active coaches, with no other active coach totaling more than five appearances.
With a career record of 666-267, Izzo has compiled more overall wins at a Big Ten school than any coach in conference history. The 666 victories are the fifth most by a coach through his first 27 seasons in college basketball history.
