om Izzo insisted recently that he has no interest in coaching in the NBA until he wins at least one more NCAA title at Michigan State. But that stance might not stop the Cleveland Cavaliers from trying to hire Izzo as their next coach. The Cavaliers -- fresh off dismissing coach Mike Brown and parting ways with general manager Danny Ferry -- have formally extended an offer to Izzo to replace Brown, sources confirmed to ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard on Monday. The Cavaliers did not confirm or deny the report, declining comment Sunday night. The News-Herald in northern Ohio first reported the Cavs' offer to Izzo. Cavs owner Dan Gilbert reiterated in an e-mail to The Associated Press the team's policy is to not comment on "any rumor about potential new hires, trades, free agent signing, etc." http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5259123
