Tom Izzo has a soft spot in his heart for former players. There are some former players who he seems to have an incredible relationship with to this day, and Tum Tum Nairn is one of them.
The former Spartan point guard who has since become the associate head coach for Bowling Green got a matchup with Izzo on Thursday night in an exhibition contest. It’s the second straight season in which Tum Tum has faced off against Izzo in East Lansing, and just like last year, the Falcons gave the Spartans all they could handle.
