Izzo will be subject to a mandatory 10-day isolation period. Michigan State’s schedule is in flux due to the pandemic, but as long as there are no complications, he should be cleared in plenty of time to coach the team normally.

Izzo has been working his normal schedule in recent months. He also spoke to the Spartans’ football team recently.
