Izzo: Lucious to play against Indiana | detnews.com | The Detroit News
The specific reason for his one-game suspension still hasn't been disclosed, but it must have been minor. With a reinstated Lucious and the unstoppable force that is Mike Kebler competing for playing time, Kalin Lucas looks to be the odd man out.* -

Nebraska willing to listen if Big Ten calls - Big Ten Blog - ESPN
This is probably less likely than Mizzou, because in terms of money, the St. Louis and Kansas City markets >>> the Omaha and Lincoln markets. But personally, I'd take Nebraska over Mizzou. The move would obviously be meh in basketball terms, but spectacularly awesome for football. And, there's a natural potential rivalry with Iowa, just as there is for Mizzou (Illinois) and Pitt (PSU). Worth pursuing. (Note: this may or may not be the official TOC position. I suspect that my more basketball-focused colleagues might not be so interested.) -
MSU should be forthright regarding status of football players | detnews.com | The Detroit News
Lacy sticks with the story; I don't really have a problem with that, because there's still so much that we don't know about the incident and aftermath.

'He just told us to keep our heads up and deal with the situation.'" -
The State News : Lots of hockey left, but MSU should be 'in'
The hockey team had a good weekend without even playing: Ferris State split with LSSU, and Nebraska-Omaha swept Michigan. FSU is MSU's biggest competition for 2nd in the conference, and even a struggling Michigan team is a dangerous Michigan team. (Aside: U-M needs to win the conference tournament now to avoid missing the NCAA tournament for the first time in 20 years.) MSU is now tied for 9th in the Pairwise rankings; a home-and-home series with a struggling FSU team beckons, and then the team finishes the regular season with a highly sweepable series against Bowling Green.
