Interesting development on the Free Press, with more details at www.kezi.com: "A source close to the University of Oregon Athletic Department has told KEZI the Ducks are planning to offer Michigan State Head Coach Tom Izzo the largest contract in college basketball, with the backing of Oregon's biggest booster, Nike Chairman Phil Knight. The Ducks can't make a formal offer until MSU is finished competing in the NCAA tournament."

Sorry, but that isn't Izzo's style. He is trying to make MSU into the best program in the nation, and that takes years. He's ecstatic where he is and has turned down huge offers before. He has enough money and power at MSU -- and whatever UO and Nike offers won't change his mind.
