Izzo watch

As usual the wkyc sports department kicked some major booty.....from the very inception where they received Intel where and when Dan Gilbert and Tom Izzo would be for a special meeting until they both left the state of Ohio --far ahead of the rest!

It all began unfolding about the time I arrived into work....and that's where our crews were dispatched for the rest of their shifts.

Kudos and a big round of applause to: Jim Donovan, Yak, Dave Chudowsky, Lynn Olszowy, Brian Crane, Dan Medsker, and Mark Smilor for the hard work they put in to get the story covered better than any station in town!

Basically we were on location of the big, secret meeting, both airports where each prospective player arrived and then departed .....and Donovan and Yak were in touch non-stop with their contacts.

The excitement in the newsroom fueled the entire shift....and seeing the final product on the air proved yet again how wonderful the wkyc sports department remains!

Good job everyone!

Both players left Ohio and word is this weekend or beginning of next week is when we should definitively know Izzo's answer.
