'Don't feel bad for me': Michigan State basketball coach Tom Izzo tests positive for COVID

Tom Izzo has no idea when and where COVID-19 caught up to him.

As the Michigan State coach explained on Monday afternoon, hours after his initial positive antigen test was confirmed by a positive PCP result, he’s been “beating my brains out” trying to nail down the particulars.

Of course, with the college basketball season likely to tip off in a little more than two weeks, those details hardly matter at this point. Michigan State must forge ahead with Izzo, 65, stuck back at home, likely to spend most of his time in his office in front of a computer screen.
