Sometimes it helps to know your place before you speak.

 

If you would like to be in the position of someone who is attending, or has attended the University of Michigan, maybe you should have studied harder in your youth.  If it's just bad genes, sorry can't help you there.

60 minutes of unnecessary roughness can really make a 40 minute basketball game miserable.

Izzo will scream and rant

The rcbm will have 10 threads on how great the Izzone is

Dantonio will proclaim he's "proud of how his students cheered"

And Hollis will just keep on Tweeting

He didn't. AA was mentioned in the comments by a Sparty fan, but Izzo didn't say anything about AA or UofM (or if he did, it wasn't quoted in the article).

EDIT: I may be wrong, Izzo may have brought up something he heard in Ann Arbor later in the press conference. I'll give you an upvote to show you I regret my oversight.

He more or less defended/rationalized the Izzone's actions by accusing the Michigan student section of saying things about his "mother's grandmother's grandma."  He went on to tell the reporters that brought up the issue that "you guys weren't on the floor in Ann Arbor."

more like he dismissed it.  I think he was probably just trying to say that fans are butal and that it has nothing to do with the game.  He mentioned that if he knew who it was or found out that he would throw them out of the izzone.  The Michigan stuff was pointless and he should have just left it alone but its not a big deal by any means.  Should be funny to have Tom Izzo through Gholsten out of the Izzone though.

I do find it funny though that's Izzo's talking out of both sides of his mouth.  

Yesterday, in response to Brandon Wood's poor performance, Izzo made a little dig at U-M saying:

"I thought we had a couple guys that had a deer-in-the-headlights look. I don't know why. I really don't. It wasn't the most hostile place we played in or anything like that." Read more: http://www.battlecreekenquirer.com/article/20120121/SPORTS/201210319

Now today, when it suits his purposes, he's crying about how mean the U-M fans were to him and his team.

Which one is it, Tom?

1. Criticize toughness of the izzone student crowd
2. Rationalize big ten losses as road games that are tough to win in
3. Characterize AA as not tough relative to most places sparty played in
4. Justify hummel-acl comment by comparing to AA environment

5. Hope & pray the izzone makes comments about acl injuries & grandmas to Michigan players to help his team win.

Izzone knows the purdue comments are inexcusable ... but he's really butthurt about losing 3 in a row to Michigan. Hence the two sides of his mouth continue diverging.

Every man at some point is gonna lose a battle. He's gonna fight and he's gonna lose. But what makes him a man, is that in the midst of that battle he does not lose himself. This game is not over, this battle is not over. So let's hear it .

It seems like the Izzone, more often than not, is becoming more and more of a problem.  They've been a consistent focal point of Izzo's ire this season, between constant texting during games to perceived apathy to stuff like this.  There's growing resentment against the organization that runs them, displeasure in their passion from alums in particular and the fanbase in general, the list goes on and on.

Basically, I wouldn't be surprised if there were some serious changes to the Izzone after this season.  They've all but jumped the shark.

Why post that ever?  It's the unspoken subtext in every exchange between Michigan and MSU students/alums/fans/etc.

It goes without saying.

Who cares?  That's pretty tame compared to some of the stuff my dad saw in high school basketball back in the 70s.  Someone from the opposing crowd actually pantsed him during a dead ball once.
