What's Going Through My Head

Bruce Weber from Illinois is a classy guy...as evidenced by this letter he wrote to the Lansing State Journal

Foe praises MSU

On behalf of the University of Illinois basketball program, I would like to thank the Michigan State Spartan basketball fans who attended the NCAA Final Four in St. Louis for the support they showed our team during the national semifinal game against Louisville. The sportsmanship was outstanding!

Coach Tom Izzo is a class act, and the Spartan fans showed the same class as their coach. It was a great way to demonstrate to the nation that those of us in the Big Ten have a lot of pride in the conference and its student-athletes.

I also would like to congratulate Izzo and his basketball team on a great season and outstanding run during the NCAA Tournament. It was evident the Spartans belonged among the nation's elite this year.

Bruce Weber, basketball coach
University of Illinois
