Tom Izzo talks to Cavaliers about coaching job

By AP

CLEVELAND – Tom Izzo says he still hasn't decided whether he will leave Michigan State to coach the Cleveland Cavaliers, who fired Mike Brown earlier this year.

Izzo told reporters late Thursday night that "it won't go on forever, I can tell you that."

The coach had just arrived back in East Lansing, Mich., after traveling to Cleveland on Thursday afternoon with his wife, daughter and son. He was getting a firsthand inspection of a franchise undergoing a major makeover as it prepares to try and
re-sign star LeBron James.

Izzo said: "I feel bad that I can't talk. I feel good that I did what I had to do."
