    Game Thread: Illinois at Michigan State

    Someone on this board was wise to who the officiating crew would be and said you will know them when you see them. I've seen then now and they are driving Izzo nuts. Brad knows he cannot act that way.

    NIL Thread (Name, Image, Likeness Rule)

    Yes, FrankNitty is thoughtful to disclose that Bill Self seems to be way ahead of the game with the quote about a KU alum (astensibly being willing to) pay "Grady Dick" six figures to go to the grandson's birthday party for an hour. But ultimately, does the question become this, to wit: Which...
