Talking about Xavier Booker, Izzo says "I failed." Says he couldn't get enough out of him and that's his fault. Says deep down, there's one hell of a basketball player there.
Izzo on Xavier Booker: "I failed. I love Book. The day he came in with his family was a difficult day for all of us. We made him stronger. As a student-athlete, he's done an unbelievable job. I just couldn't get enough out of him." Puts the blame on himself.
