"His greatest strength is his ability to pace his team's development throughout the season. By March, MSU is (usually) firing on all cylinders. That's not a coincidence."
That is what ESPN's Eamonn Brennan said about Tom Izzo, and that is a compliment. He is a "tournament coach." What I regret is that a lot of very good coaches do not get the recognition they deserve because basketball is so skewed toward end-of-the-year tournaments, as if nothing else in the season matters.
