@umhoops have you heard the rumor that Rocket will withdraw from the portal and return to MSU?
Oh, my goodness! Why?!?
I donāt know. I am super curious about it. It was such a necessary split, to undo it would be fascinating.

Illinois talked enough trash this year to become our rivals so I dunno, I kind of think they are. We also have some history with them. Like, at the beginning of the season I said āIām rooting for Illinois to resurge because my dad went there and itās good for them to be good in basketballā to āOmlord this is a level of obnoxious Iāve never seen before and I straight up do not like themā.
Well, it sounds like a lot of Sparties on RCMB are all in if he wants to come back and play the two.
A few people I know that have had some MSU scoops in the past told me over the weekend that there was buzz of Watts returning. Yesterday they squashed it and said the latest is it would be a massive surprise if heās back.

Illinois fans have long been convinced weāre rivals already. Was extremely weird being on campus in a UM shirt in 2004. Shockingly belligerent.
But yeah, in that spirit, Iād just as soon keep ignoring them.

that goes back to at least the 1980s and I have no real idea why. I mean there have been several small things over the decades, but nothing approaching rivalry status IMHO.
Iād put Illinois on the bottom half of our B10 rivalriesāat least with the original 10.

They think they are our rivals in football too. The most obvious explanation is that Illinois has no real rivalries because nobody cares much about them.

Which is weird because theyāre an absolutely massive school in a huge state with one of the biggest cities, and berry good academically.
Adam Miller must really want to stick it to Illinois on the way outā¦
(I donāt buy weāre actually a player here)

So both Jones and Miller announcing the same day. I wonder if the same time. Good grief Charlie Brown!
LOL. Fun. What explains this Michigan involvement? Weād surely have heard at least some rumblings, right?

This is a 10/10 announcement of an announcement video. The Bardo clip was incredible.
