Tom Izzo sounds off on NCAA after Louisville signs ex-G Leaguer

[BleedGopher]

With two former G League players recently committing to play for Division I schools, Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said he doesn't "respect" the NCAA powerbrokers who've allowed those moves to happen.

"I am going to get myself in trouble, but I listen to people talk about how kids changed. Kids aren't the problem, we're the problem," Izzo told reporters Tuesday. "This was sprung on us again yesterday where a guy can be in the G League for two or three years and then all of a sudden, he's eligible. Most of my people knew nothing about it. ... I'm not real excited about the NCAA or whoever is making these decisions, without talking to us, just letting it go. They're afraid they're going to get sued."

Bill Self chimes in:

"Who knows, we may be recruiting one when it is all said and done. I got to know the rule because I didn't know it was just limited to the G-League. I thought a guy could be cut in the NBA and be eligible for college," Self said. "My personal opinion is, I have no idea what we're doing."
