    Tom Izzo to coach the Cavs?

    I didn't see this posted. If it's already being discussed, delete it.

    EDIT: Seems like they've extended him an offer. Would he be a good fit in Cleveland?

    Brian Windhorst is reporting that Gilbert has officially given Izzo an offer. 5 years, 6 mill per.

    And I die a little bit inside.

      Tom Izzo seems like the kind of guy who wouldn't jump to the pros but he's done basically all you can do at the college level. He seems like a fairly levelheaded coach who doesn't have TOO much of an ego. He could be a very good fit if Cleveland decides to go a bit younger.

      Personally there's been 4 current and recently retired coaches who i'd love to see in the pros who I can't see taking the bait. Jim Boeheim (sp). Izzo, Coach K and Bobby Knight. So if Izzo does go to Cleveland i'll be watching with great interest.

        Ouch. That's a big committment for an unproven guy at the NBA level.

          And use of a private jet. LOL

          On Monday, Gilbert was close to offering Izzo a contract totaling about $6 million per season for up to five years. Additional perks would be included, such as use of a private jet.

            Why can't they just make an offer to Larry Brown?

            Man....I'm scared this is going to lead to the 10 letter "R" word.

              A college coach getting $6m per season is ridiculous. I remember hearing that the Nets were going to offer Coach K up to $10m per season and this is just as ridiculous.

                I don't really pay attention to coaching salaries so how high up would $6 mil be on the coaching scale? Top 5?

                  Above Doc Rivers and as much as D'Antoni, Don Nelson and a million less than Larry Brown with Phil Jackson the highest. Everyone else is below the names mentioned.

                    So from some MSU reporters, people think he is leaning towards joining the Cavaliers, with or without LeBron.

                    So let me get this straight, we could be LeBron-less AND have Tom Izzo as our coach!?

                      I like him coming in.

                      They also contacted Byron Scott and Jeff Van Gundy.

                              Tweets from Brian Windhorst:

                              * Tom Izzo had a meeting with his players yesterday. MSU AD said today he thinks a decision comes before July 1.

                              * Monday people were telling me Izzo would stay. Now there are rumors he's attempting to find jobs for his assistants if he leaves.

                              * All could be contingency planning, though. I'm sure MSU is preparing action plan if he leaves. Just as Cavs working on other options.
