Is Tom Izzo a top 10 coach? See where he landed in a recent national list

See where Tom Izzo landed in a newly released head coaches rankings list heading into next season Despite having one of his best seasons in the last five years, Tom Izzo is not considered a top 10 coach nationally by one popular college basketball social media account. College Basketball Report -- a popular social media account known for putting together rankings and other lists -- has released their list of top 50 coaches heading into the 2025-26 season. Izzo was obviously pretty high on the list, but not as high as some may have had the hall of famer. College Basketball Report has Izzo as the No. 12 coach nationally entering the season. Here's a list of the coaches ahead of him in the rankings: The list itself isn't bad -- in my opinion -- when you start to look at who all is ahead of Izzo in the rankings. The one thing I would nitpick on is having Scott Drew ahead of Izzo. Sure, Drew won a national championship in 2021, but other than that season, he hasn't led the Bears to the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament since 2017. So if we are playing a comparison game, I find it hard to have Drew ahead of Izzo based on both recent success and overall success.

Caitlin Clark gets chippy with referee after Fever's loss to Wings

A crushing night in Indianapolis ended with what appeared to be a heated moment between Caitlin Clark and a referee. With the Fever trailing the Wings by one point Tuesday with less than two seconds to go in regulation, Indiana guard Kelsey Mitchell hurled the ball toward the net for the win but clipped the backboard instead. Advertisement As the Wings celebrated the 81-80 road victory inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Clark — currently sidelined with a groin injury — walked on the court toward official Amy Bonner, with images of the interaction seemingly illustrating a chippy exchange, in which the ref appeared to point toward the bench. Clark, who isn't a stranger to jawing with the refs, wasn't the only member of the Fever who appeared to take exception to the officiating Tuesday, with head coach Stephanie White chiding the 'double standard' in a physical game. 5 Caitlin Clark appears to get chippy with a referee on Aug. 12, 2025.

If you're going to call the holds, and you're going to call the chucks, then call it both ways, White said, according to the Indy Star. 'So, I mean, I think that we've been pretty consistent in what we're asking for, and I didn't feel like it was consistent,' White, in her first season as coach of the Fever, 'went up to the referees multiple times during breaks and timeouts to talk and get clarity on different foul calls,' per the Indy Star. 5 Caitlin Clark on the floor during the Fever's 81-80 loss to the Wings.

She has been out since July 15, and there is no concrete timetable as to when she'll return. Through 13 games this season, Clark has averaged 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds and 8.8 assists.

Former Wisconsin basketball star appeals to Badgers fans with NFL fandom

Former Wisconsin basketball star John Tonje continues to ingratiate himself with the Badger fanbase, even after joining the Utah Jazz as a second-round pick in the latest NBA draft. Tonje, who is on the short list of recent Wisconsin basketball greats despite spending just one year with the program, took to X on Tuesday to share the following: "Never had a football team growing up, but I went to Wisconsin, so I think I'm a Packers fan." Of course, not all Wisconsin basketball fans are also Green Bay Packers fans. However, given Wisconsin basketball's place in the state's larger sports ecosystem, that dual fandom is quite common. Tonje's play already did the heavy lifting with the fanbase during the season. Now playing in the NBA, he still maintains a connection to Wisconsin and the Badger fanbase. The All-American wing began his college basketball career at Colorado State back in 2019. He played four years for the Rams, headlined by per-game averages of 14.6 points, 4.7 rebounds and 1.3 assists as a senior in 2022-23. The Omaha, Nebraska, native then transferred to Missouri for his fifth year, though he missed nearly the entire season due to injury. Finally, Tonje joined the Badgers for his final collegiate season in 2024-25. He delivered one of the greatest seasons in program history, averaging 19.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists and finishing just eight points shy of Frank Kaminsky's single-season scoring record. That record would have been his had the Badgers defeated BYU in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. Tonje, who recently concluded the NBA Summer League session with the Jazz, is now looking to make his mark at the professional level. His connection to Wisconsin fans was already strong after his record season with the Badgers. Once the NFL season starts, he can also now share the Packer fan experience.
