Spartans drill Valparaiso, Tom Izzo ties Jud Heathcote for Michigan State win mark

Spartans drill Valparaiso, Tom Izzo ties Jud Heathcote for Michigan State win mark
"With No. 2 Michigan State's 90-60 victory over Valparaiso in the second round of the Legends Classic, Tom Izzo tied his predecessor and mentor Jud Heathcote for the most wins in school history with 340.

Immediately after the game, Izzo was headed to Kansas City to present Heathcote for the latter's induction into the National Collegiate Basketball Hall of Fame.

'I swear I didn't know exactly what number until (former MSU coach and MSU radio analyst Gus Ganakas) brought it to my attention this morning,' Izzo said. 'It means I'll probably go down there and get chewed out for it (by Heathcote)."
