Carson Cooper, Malik Hall share when they think Tom Izzo will retire

Carson Cooper and Malik Hall are around Tom Izzo every day so the idea of him closing in on retirement is wild to them.

The conversation surrounding Tom Izzo and a potential upcoming retirement has been at an all-time high this season. Izzo is 69 years old, so it’s not an insane thing to suggest that he could be nearing retirement. He discussed this in a CBS Sports interview earlier this season, saying he’s still nowhere near being ready to retire. However, that somehow didn’t stop these conversations from happening.

In an episode of The Spiro Avenue Show, Malik Hall and Carson Cooper discussed when they think Izzo will retire.

Spoiler alert: It won’t be any time soon.

What did Cooper and Hall have to say about Izzo retiring?

In this episode of The Spiro Avenue Show, both Hall and Cooper were reacting to a clip from The Valenti Show where Rico Beard suggested Izzo could retire any day now. Their reactions to this clip were priceless. You’ll have to see their hilarious facial reactions yourself, but Cooper shared that “He (Izzo) tells us all the time he’s going to be coaching til he’s dead and old.” Considering Izzo doesn’t look his age, that likely means he’s got a lot longer to go.
