Tom Izzo Excuse Prediction Thread
What will Tiny Tom blame this on? My early candidates:
1. We really thought we would get to play in the middle of the night like Michigan got to.
2. No way to preduct Syrancuse would come with an entirely new defensive set.
3. It's incredibly hard and unfair to have to play away from Breslin.
Why you trying to jinx this, game still going
I just want someone to remind Tom Izzo that he has 2 5 star players in Jackson and Bridges that can CRUSH anyone inside the paint.
Instead he thinks he's coaching Steph Curry and the Warriors with the amount of 3s they jack up.
Next year will be lots of fun.
Bahahaahahaha

Not enough floor slapping.
But his team was never that good. Perhaps the softest 29 win team ever. They had a remarkably easy B1G schedule. They looked soft the two games against us. I never understood the national infatuation with them. Clearly nobody watched their games and just assumed Izzo and his 5 star recruits would roll. This may be Tom's worst coaching year. I think the game is passing him by.
In the words of Nelson Muntz... "HAH! HAH!"
They entered the tournament 2-4 vs the top 50, they exited the tourney 2-4 vs the top 50.
let that sink in. one of the most overrated and overhyped teams i can ever remember. and they finish the season with just 2 wins over top 50 teams. incredible.
I understand, it’s just they were in the midst of having about 67 chances to get that 3 points in the final 30 seconds.
well...
Posbang...
At least it wasn't a 15 seed.
Just rofl
Izzo sucks. Nuff said.
We got put in a difficult side of the bracket
yet another Sparty nooooooooooooo!
Bye, bye Staee.
“I’ll be honest with you!”
And we thought they weren't allowed to do that.
Rofl. This is so great
"Weird guys doing stuff"
"Not so sure that was legal"
"We were concentrating on the victims"
i absolutely guarantee he uses that excuse. well, our guys have been through a lot in recent weeks and i think it finally took its toll...yada yada yada.
"Hard to motivate the team to play a game we're going to vacate anyway."
a tough week for Izzo
banking them in at the first half buzzer. Oh, that was us? Well, I was proud of the effort and we just had too many distractions.
Bye, bye Staee.
MSU Down POSBANG???! Can’t believe how overrated they were by the so called “experts” picking them to win it all.. shows you they have no idea what they’re talking about!
Covers up sexual assault on their team and pays their players but still can't make it past the second round.
So he covers up sexual assaults by his players. Wearing a ribbon makes up for all that, right?
Travis Walton was in my basement doing absolutely nothing at all that was causing loud noises all night. Thus, I couldn't sleep or gameplan effectively...
His team had to play the game too far from home.
"I am happy that we lost. Now, I can spend more time thinking about the victims"-Tom Izzo
"We weren't as talented as I thought"
for wanting to avoid yet another Duke loss. Well played, Tom!
My best friend who died 1+ years ago tragically was a Cuse grad. Like to think he had something to do with this. Thanks James!!!
Put it up in time for sparty ex-wife to pick kids up in 30 minutes. Hahahah! I’m a dick but screw it. Worth it
Of your post is better. Honoring your departed friend or sticking it to the ex. Sort of like the angel whispering in one ear and the devil in the other.
LMAO!! Love your semi-twisted sense of humor. Well played, sir, wll played!!!
We should never have been sent to Detroit.
He'll give excuses if he wants to talk about basketball. Maybe he can talk about his retirement instead.
I am going to visit my MSU neighbor's house now and see how he is coping. If I can actually get a response, I will definitely report on the results. I should hurry though, as I can see him outside in the backyard replacing the MSU flag with the Kentucky flag that he also occasionally flies. He is one of those fans, after all.
Be careful. He may be feeling suicidal, as many of us were last night before GLORY set in!!!
Obligatory - tough week for izzo.
I’ll go with free throw disparity/refs.
"Really unfair that Syracuse got to get in a rhythm by playing an extra game."
Hope he cries!
"Playing a virtual home game put extra pressure on the coaches and team."
Posbang?? POSBANG!!!!
