  "account": "Tom Izzo, coach of Michigan State basketball, expressed disappointment in his team’s performance after a 30-point win over Toledo. Izzo praised some individual players, particularly Jordan Scott, who works extremely hard, and Jeremy Fears, who is expected to take on more responsibility due to his ranking. Fears was commended for his leadership on the floor, calling out teammates and acting as a linebacker for the team. Coen Carr was remarked upon for needing to improve and contribute more to the team. The coach emphasized the importance of playing hard and physically, lamenting that his team didn’t live up to that standard in this match. Izzo also addressed the team’s rotation and the need to determine roles for each player, with the understanding that role players must fulfill their responsibilities alongside the starters.",
