Izzo tells Beilein he made him a better coach, and he doesn't hate Michigan anymore.
But then he makes the weirdest comment imaginable about the rivalry. At least I think its weird.
You made me better, because you came in here, beat us a few times, then we did there. Once you look at it, it was a pretty even run once we got going.
“And you know what — you said it, and I think Juwan will do a good job and everything — but if you would have stayed a few more years, we would have caught that Duke-North Carolina rivalry.
So either he's admitting Juwan is gonna dominate him, or he's saying he's gonna dominate Juwan.

If JB made Izzo a better coach...well, wtf is happening with all this talent that he gets in? Cuz he certainly isn't coaching it. Lots of kids showing up and never reaching their ceiling, or even their top floor. Kind of reminiscent of our football team.

...except Izzo has won last three Big Ten titles, last Big Ten tournament title, and went to last Final Four.

*He and Cassius got beat by Juwan in Juwan’s first season.

He’s going to hate Michigan once again after Juwan puts his foot on his throat

"...with you, I couldn’t even hate my rival anymore. You made me better, because you came in here, beat us a few times..."
