Michigan State: Big Ten Title to Cost Izzo His Hair

Michigan State coach Tom Izzo promised Spartan fans that if his team won the Big Ten title this season, he would shave his head. With Michigan State’s 64-59 win against Indiana Tuesday, the Spartans have the title in the bag, and Izzo has a close shave coming soon. But not too soon, the Associated Press reports.

“Izzo said he would fulfill the promise he made to students last fall by shaving his head — after the NCAA tournament.

‘I lie to my other people, but I don’t lie to my students, which will be embarrassing,” the Spartans’ coach said. “I’m not going to embarrass my team in the NCAA tournament. I’m going to wait till it’s all over and embarrass my wife then.'”
