-In 1995 Crean rejoined Izzo, who had been named head coach at Michigan State. The two became such good friends that Crean lived in Izzo's house and Izzo was an usher in Crean's wedding. According to Crean at the time, "It was a great opportunity for me to go back home. We've been friends a long time. I don't think I would have left Ralph for anything else." Crean served as recruiting coordinator at Michigan State, and was the leader behind a shift in the recruitment of Michigan players to Michigan State instead of the University of Michigan. He directed the staff's preparation for opponents, and wrote reports identifying several aspects on each of the opponent's players. He also handled the substitutions, called many of the plays, and formulated a play sheet that used a lot of pro sets on offense. While Crean was at Michigan State, the Spartans compiled an 88-41 record.+ {{  men_s_basketball:izzo_crean.jpg?250}}In 1995 Crean rejoined Izzo, who had been named head coach at Michigan State.
