Tom Izzo Condemns Ex-Spartan Paul Davis After In-Game Ejection at Michigan StateUSC

Izzo says Davis directed an unacceptable remark at a referee that was not racial or sexual.

Overview

  • Officials halted play in the second half after a spectator’s comment, and cameras showed former MSU center Paul Davis before he was asked to leave at Izzo’s direction.
  • Izzo told reporters the comment toward an official was something that should never be said anywhere.
  • The coach said he plans to call Davis, expressing disappointment yet noting Davis’ longstanding ties to the program.
  • The episode unfolded late in a game the Spartans won 80-51 over USC, with Coen Carr and Jeremy Fears Jr. leading the way.
  • As of the latest reports, there has been no public response from Davis and no formal disciplinary action announced.
