Michigan State basketball head coach Tom Izzo has "had it" and "can't stand what is going on."

Following the loss of both President Kevin Guskiewicz and Athletic Director J Batt, Izzo calls for "Spartan Nation" to stand up. 

 In a video posted on The Detroit Free Press, Izzo spoke on the multiple leadership changes the university is facing. 

"I'm a very invested stakeholder, but the alums better stand up," Izzo said. "What happened with our president is ridiculous, he said it, we know the reasons and I'm ashamed, disgusted, hurt."

On May 27, Guskiewicz took the top job at Clemson University after less than three years at MSU. On the way out, he placed the blame for his departure on divisions within the Board of Trustees, calling it an "unsustainable situation."

This morning, Batt was hired by the University of Kentucky to serve as Athletic Director, as well as CEO for the university's for-profit LLC, Champions Blue.

Izzo referred to these losses as "self inflicted."

"We just lost one of the best presidents that has ever been here, there are other dominoes that could affect it when things go wrong like that."

Guskiewicz's departure marks MSU’s seventh leader to hold the position of university president in ten years. Batt's replacement will be the fourth athletic director, including interims, to assume the position since 2021.

"I think 600,000 living alums are rallying together," Izzo said.
