"Trying to win a national championship -- plain and simple. We all talk about retirement. Why? What the hell am I going to do? The minute I don't feel good, the minute I don't feel like I'm giving my AD or president or school every ounce of energy I have every day or that energy drops, you don't have to worry about it."
"Tomorrow I'm going to the portal. The only difference is the portal at Michigan State is different than the portal at most places. I'm going right to my frickin' locker room, and I'm going to talk to each and every player right there."
"I'm the luckiest guy in the world. I'm just not lucky enough to be playing on Sunday."
Tom Izzo, the 71-year-old coach of Michigan State, expressed his determination to win a national championship in the future. Despite recent challenges, including a Sweet 16 loss, he remains committed to the program. Izzo emphasized his dedication to giving his all and not considering retirement. He plans to engage with his players and utilize the transfer portal to strengthen the team, expecting to retain several players and welcome a promising freshman class.
