EAST LANSING - Michigan State men’s basketball coach Tom Izzo received an unusual, heartfelt gift during practice yesterday: the right arm of eighth year sophomore David Corbett.
“I told my fraternity brothers I’d give my right arm to see Michigan State beat Kansas, and I’m a man of my word,” said Corbett. “Besides, [the frat brothers] were happy to oblige.”
Corbett said a houseful of Delta Delta Taus beat him senseless and then cut his arm at the shoulder blade using a set of steak knives.
Michigan State plays Kansas in Indianapolis Friday evening. Izzo accepted the arm on behalf of his team.
“I’m just glad you didn’t say you’d give your right [testicle],” he joked.
