Michigan State's Tom Izzo appears on 'Judge Mathis,' can't stop laughing
Brian Manzullo
We've never seen Tom Izzo laugh this much.
The Michigan State basketball coach is in the middle of guiding his No. 3 Spartans into the Big Ten Conference season, but he made headlines today for a different reason: He appeared on today's airing of "Judge Mathis," which was taped this past summer.
Mathis mentioned that Izzo is his favorite college basketball coach and had fun riffing on MSU's dominance of Ohio State during a case involving a Buckeyes fan.
Oh, and Izzo laughs. A lot.
Give this a watch, it's pretty amusing.
The episode was taped last August; Mathis had tweeted a photo of himself with Izzo on Aug. 19, while throwing shade at Michigan football coach Jim Harbaugh, who has an affinity for Judge Judy instead.
