ESPN Refers To Tom Izzo As 'Tim' In Alert [PHOTOS]

It's bad enough that the national media has managed to mess up Mark Dantonio's name time after time.
And there's this: Last week, AP announced that Denzel Valentine had been named their player of the year. The only problem was they referred to him as Denzel Washington.
This brings me to Monday afternoon when it was announced that Tom Izzo was elected to the Naismith Basketball Hall Of Fame.
ESPN sent out an alert to let everyone know that Izzo was elected, noting it was the greatest thing to ever happen to him. It's a huge accomplishment, so maybe you want to get the guy's name right.
Tim Izzo? Really? How is that possible? The only thing I can even think is that since the "I" and "O" are next to each other on the keyboard, whoever sends out the text alerts just typed way too fast. Either way, there really seems to be no respect for Michigan State.
