Tom Izzo Wiki Biography

  • Thomas Michael Izzo was born on January 30, 1955, in Iron Mountain, Michigan, USA, and is a college basketball coach, best known as the head coach of the Michigan State University men’s basketball team since 1995, leading Michigan to remarkable success with his own record of 524 wins and 205 defeats. 
  • Since 1977, his career has been active. 
  • According to reputable sources, it has been reported that Tom’s net worth is as high as $13 million, a sum he’s earned over his prosperous career as a college basketball coach; his current salary is $3 million per year. 
  • Tom attended Iron Mountain High School and then enrolled at Northern Michigan University in Marquette, where he played basketball as a forward. 
  • During his college career, Tom was chosen as Division II All-American, and he also broke the record for most of the minutes he played. 
  • After graduation, Tom wanted to try a coaching career; his first job at Ishpeming High School was as head coach in 1977, but it only lasted for one season before he joined his alma mater team as an assistant coach. 
  • He remained in that role until 1983, gaining much-needed information for his later career. 
  • In 1983, he was brought to Michigan State University as an assistant coach, as the head coach at the time, Jud Heathcote, had a high opinion of Tom, and after several years, he named him as associate head coach, and after his retirement in 1994, he chose Tom as his successor. 
  • Tom’s net worth had already been well-founded. 
  • Tom’s first few seasons in Michigan were nothing to brag about, as he had a 9–9 record in both of them, and failed to make the NCAA Tournament. 
  • But from 1998 things began to go, and his team had a 13-3 record at the end of the season. 
  • Since then, Tom has managed to retain this high percentage of win-loss ratio, which has definitely developed him as a coach. 
  • Some of his best results with the team are 15-1 in the 1998-1999 season, 15-3 in the 2008-2009 season. 
  • All this success has allowed him to remain the head coach of the Michigan State University, signing new lucrative contracts, which only increased his net worth.
