Izzo turns down Cavs job

Michigan State Spartans head coach Tom Izzo has decided to turn down the Cleveland Cavaliers job.

One of the big reasons Izzo turned down the job is that he was never able to speak with LeBron James.

Before taking the job, Izzo would want to make sure that he would have the opportunity to coach James.

Instead of coaching superstars in the NBA, Izzo will return to developing them at the college level.

Izzo said that the decision was a life choice, meaning he will not be entertaining any other offers in the future.
