Because of this, my first thought was to find what Tom Izzo said when asked about the Flagrant-2 in the postgame press conference. So I watched the full presser.

He was not asked. As part of an answer to a "you were running out of bigs at the end" question, he said this: 2/ pic.twitter.com/t1ASQpfxcg — Robert Rosenthal (@ALionEye) February 25, 2021

I thought Couch was going after Dan Roan for calling Sissoko a thug* - CanHartlebHireSnider February 25, 2021, 17:22:45

This is silly. Isn't the fun in playing the games?* - CWR10 February 25, 2021, 14:31:33

well, it's timmer - assassin February 25, 2021, 14:35:31
There's this nightmare scenario where someone picks up the 'rona during the BTT... - Tuscy February 25, 2021, 14:44:03
i think we've ernied a top seed already, but i can't count on it* - VIV February 25, 2021, 14:14:25
Big Ten rescheduling Michigan game: double-header, anyone?* - RangerDanger February 25, 2021, 16:05:11
Yeah, can't quite take it to the banks just yet * - jdl February 25, 2021, 14:20:47

It’s not my money but I really wish Underwood had taken the fine - Blazer February 25, 2021, 13:58:05
He's officially not coming back next year? - HamptonSki February 25, 2021, 13:21:15
you go when there's nothing left to gain by coming back - snipes824 February 25, 2021, 14:04:19
I think Kofi could still gain something - jdl February 25, 2021, 14:07:21
JMHO, but if/when Ayo goes, Kofi will follow. I think the MSU game showed him enough. - osklister February 25, 2021, 17:10:40
Sounds like he was close to leaving last year, despite it being against his better interests. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 14:36:17
pass out of the post and a 12-15 footer are the 2 things that jump to mind for me* - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 14:13:53
I think mid-range shooting is definitely an area where he can improve his stock and usefulness - snipes824 February 25, 2021, 14:12:04
Seems like the major draft boards haven’t done much updating since early in the season - Blazer February 25, 2021, 13:59:37
Illini Basketball is sharing his "last shot ever in Assembly Hall" so...* - eta February 25, 2021, 13:58:43
That's why I mentioned it. - HamptonSki February 25, 2021, 16:40:31
i've seen him projected as high as 10th from a more obscure mock draft - illiniranger February 25, 2021, 13:41:28
ooo - jdl February 25, 2021, 13:30:25
Someone asked BU about it in the presser and he said he would encourage Ayo to go* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 13:27:32
should we read anything into 'facial injury' instead of broken nose in the release?* - John Coctostan February 25, 2021, 13:05:06
he was involved in a bar fight with a local mma guy* - CoronaTheirAss February 25, 2021, 13:11:05
No?* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 13:05:43
Might have a facial fracture not part of his nose.* - Tuscy February 25, 2021, 13:14:58
It certainly could be that, but I wouldn’t read anything into the phrasing* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 13:32:38
I assume it's just general coach speak or whatever. but is there a chance it's a bigger issue than - John Coctostan February 25, 2021, 13:14:28
BTW, we opened as 17 point favorites tonight (before the Ayo news obvi) - Blazer February 25, 2021, 12:43:49
I hope they surprise me, but I would be shocked if we win by 13+* - OB25 February 25, 2021, 12:46:21
I have no idea what to expect - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:48:25
I will repeat my desire to get these guys in the BTT and beat the shit out of them* - Blazer February 25, 2021, 12:37:54
if we get them in the BTT I want us to forfeit and get ready for the NCAAs - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 13:27:29
Trouble is, retaliation is usually way too obvious. - illinijohn February 25, 2021, 13:08:11
Believe it or not, I actually wasn’t advocating retaliation - Blazer February 25, 2021, 14:01:16
I'll buy that. - illinijohn February 25, 2021, 14:05:40
Literally and figuratively* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 12:40:38
Okpala, Pearl Palczewski and Ford have been added to the roster * - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:44:21
Does Stanley Green have any eligibility left?* - IlliniOllie February 25, 2021, 13:19:20
His name is now "Brandon Lieb"* - illini222 February 25, 2021, 13:33:29
Apparently Dan Roan had to delete a tweet - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:29:39
Gotta watch the use of "thug" there...too charged. - JFG February 25, 2021, 13:08:23
Ridiculous* - ilinni11 February 25, 2021, 13:49:46
Thug is such a weird word. When I think of it, I don't think of race. - tvillini February 25, 2021, 13:27:45
Keeping him out until the BTT wouldn't be the worst thing in the world - GMAW February 25, 2021, 12:28:38
I get the gist but I couldn't do that to Ayo - illini February 25, 2021, 12:55:21
Of course, I'm also not Brad Underwood. * - illini February 25, 2021, 12:55:40
Yeah I’m kind of thinking the same. Just as long as we get a 2/3 seed. - Carl Spackler February 25, 2021, 12:38:32
My dream is more Iowa whining - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:40:16
Never had a big issue with MSU fans and certainly don’t judge a fan base by a message board... - OB25 February 25, 2021, 12:22:40
"I’m genuinely concerned this will give Mady a lasting rep..." - illinijohn February 25, 2021, 12:57:00
Don’t they have a molester or rapist to go cover up?* - IlliniOllie February 25, 2021, 12:44:09
More than one, probably* - Jackie February 25, 2021, 13:03:53

They are very cautious with rumors * - jdl February 25, 2021, 13:10:22
I blew up (via text) the MSU fans I know. They have been silent - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 12:30:16
I'm already pissed about the few comments I've seen on Twitter - Taz February 25, 2021, 12:25:16

Izzo is a ####ing coward.* - Ron McDon February 25, 2021, 12:10:17
So are the Spartan beat reporters for not asking the question. - illini222 February 25, 2021, 13:09:31
are there any stats that show MSU is particularly foul-y?* - biclops February 25, 2021, 12:00:29
Brad said in his post game that they had scripted in 20 plus FTAs because that’s MSU ball.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 12:03:25
That strategy backfired - we seemed to rush a bunch of shots around the rim and POWER THROUGH - GMAW February 25, 2021, 12:26:50
If we had made our FTs and a couple layups and won, MSU fans would be the ones bitching at the refs* - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:05:26
we would still be pissed about Ayo* - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 12:19:51
Probably true.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 12:09:32
They are #279 in defensive FT rate - jdl February 25, 2021, 12:02:40
They lead the nation in fouls.* - Illiniphil February 25, 2021, 12:01:15

guy was chasing BTPOY ect. eff Tom Izzo* - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 11:45:37
Time to put the shock of this in the rearview mirror. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 11:10:40
Really interested/nervous to see how tonight goes. We’re certainly capable of losing without Ayo.* - OB25 February 25, 2021, 12:00:14
I might save myself the headache and not watch. - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 12:04:03

I think I'd go Trent, Miller, DMW, Grandison, Kofi* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 11:39:46
I would think you'd start DaMonte-Miller needs to step up, he's got his shot to show - illini222 February 25, 2021, 11:39:34
So rumors are that Ayo had surgery - jdl February 25, 2021, 11:05:21
90/10 rule * - ijustkrushalot February 25, 2021, 12:00:06
Would also not be surprising. Most nose breaks require surgery. He won’t be back - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 11:13:59
It's like a six-minute surgery. - illini February 25, 2021, 11:37:08
Minor surgeries are ones that other people have* - Herman Blume February 25, 2021, 12:19:35
Me too and there was swelling for a few days afterward.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 11:52:35
It’s been 19 years since I’ve had that surgery but I remember my nose being packed with gauze - GhostofPokeyStixPast February 25, 2021, 12:11:11
Yeah, I'm fine sitting him out as long as needed. - jdl February 25, 2021, 11:16:20
Yep. Games without Ayo will not hurt us. He’s so high profile they’ll be accounted for. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 11:16:15
More experience for Miller, Curbelo, Hawkins means that they get a chance to shine - Taz February 25, 2021, 11:37:02
Also, I recall conversation about Izzo being on the floor during play in our game. If we play them - meanjeans February 25, 2021, 11:02:48
I'm searching for any sort of silver lining: Ayo was already getting NPOY talk, sort of feels like - meanjeans February 25, 2021, 11:00:50
Forde calling for further action - jdl February 25, 2021, 10:43:20
I don't read that as him calling for more action - AintHatin February 25, 2021, 10:49:44

Except he used the present, not future perfect, tense of have - Blazer February 25, 2021, 12:12:07
Sorry, I misread what your doubtful was in reference to - Blazer February 25, 2021, 12:13:51
Well, he is a Miznoz alum * - jdl February 25, 2021, 10:57:13
Maybe. I'll take the "dirty play" at least * - jdl February 25, 2021, 10:52:51
For sure. It is good for him to call out.* - AintHatin February 25, 2021, 10:53:56

Hello, British historical drama TV series based on the novels of the same title by Winston Graham.* - Tortillini February 25, 2021, 10:53:37
Would be kinda boss though if Curbelo posts a 15-5-11 tonight. * - illini February 25, 2021, 10:41:24
Silver lining is he gets a chance to grow up real fast before the real games start. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:54:38

a private letter from FUJW to FUKW is not enough. - Poldark February 25, 2021, 10:23:30
Did he do this?* - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:25:44
no idea but it would not surprise me * - Poldark February 25, 2021, 10:35:20
This is such ####ing bullshit. #### izzo #### sissoko and #### B1G refs* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 10:21:52
I’m trying to remember, did the refs even call a standard foul when the play actually happened?* - OB25 February 25, 2021, 10:23:31
It was a clear foul and should have been called but I have no problem with the F2 call process* - ilinni11 February 25, 2021, 10:44:42
The ball was knocked out by Langford and looked like a clean play - jdl February 25, 2021, 10:35:05
nope, just out of bounds - IlliniSax05 February 25, 2021, 10:25:23
That’s what I thought. And that’s the most egregious part of the whole thing. - OB25 February 25, 2021, 10:26:51
Yea. Either that or incompetence...which given some of the other calls, seems to be the - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:32:25
I really hate ref complaining, and I want to give them the benefit of the doubt. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:39:24
I feel like this year has been even beyond the norm. Terribly embarrasing calls * - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:55:36
Eh, I’ve been saying for years you have to be 10 points better to win on the road. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:56:56
MSU didn't react and push it. they set the tone from the start. seems clear that izzo - John Coctostan February 25, 2021, 10:52:49
Right, ageeed. And refs discuss the scouting report before the games. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:55:47
I don’t hate it anymore because it’s clear how bad the B1G refs have been for years now. Cleaning - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 10:43:21
There's some truth here, but just changing out the officials isn't going to be the panacea you seek* - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:50:49
They did not* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 10:25:08

I find it hard to believe it couldn't get made in time... - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:16:46
Rumor is 2 games. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:18:46
I don't see how anyone would know at this point that he can't play Saturday - GMAW February 25, 2021, 10:21:48
Yeah I don't know. Just what I got over a text... - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:23:56
Hell of an opportunity for Kofi to showcase himself though.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 10:19:39
This is just tough for Ayo. Any missed time hurts his All American campaign. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:22:43
He's got 1st team All-American locked up* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 10:23:58
Yeah I think so too. National media has been all over him this year.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 10:44:34
I would like to think so.* - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:24:35
Anyone in the conversation for npoy has to have first team locked up, I would think* - Taz February 25, 2021, 10:26:01
Stop desiging world renowned COVID tests and make a mask for Ayo! - HamptonSki February 25, 2021, 10:15:50
Whatever game Robbie Hummell is doing, we'll hear about him having to wear someone else's mask * - jdl February 25, 2021, 10:15:03
Not surprising. They have to fit and mold them I think.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 10:14:09
yeah i have no idea the turn around time on those - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 10:16:07
I’d think that they didn’t even do the X-ray until yesterday morning. That’s a short turnaround - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 10:18:56
Quite possibly but I feel major universities have the connections to get a quicker turnaround - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 10:48:23
no, but the silence is deafening. Several Illini beat writers are being tagged in tweets - illfan23 February 25, 2021, 10:09:27
Nothing is confirmed.* - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 10:08:36
Any one have the footage of when Ayo broke his nose? Sorry if down below* - ibdoc February 25, 2021, 10:02:47

Be careful what you wish for. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:05:49
True...But LOL at msu fans equating Sissoko's wild flailing that hurt Ayo to - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:11:23
You don't want to read their fan comments. It's like we're in 1988 talking about the Pistons. - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 10:15:33
Good point...definitely a culture of coverup at that u* - Jackie February 25, 2021, 10:19:19

The "good" thing is that after this breaks, the league won't suffer this nonsense - GMAW February 25, 2021, 9:28:33
Can we pull a Michigan and just say we don’t feel like playing the next 2 games?* - OB25 February 25, 2021, 9:21:04
On account it’s contagious.* - timmer February 25, 2021, 10:12:18
does the conference verify positive covid tests? - snipes824 February 25, 2021, 9:27:23
Gotta shut down due to “contact tracing.” * - Ron McDon February 25, 2021, 10:15:21
i think scUM shut down without positive tests, so we can too* - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 9:33:23
They were shut down by the state. * - illini February 25, 2021, 9:49:28
You see, our situation is different from theirs, so we're going to do what we want* - jayd February 25, 2021, 9:36:06
Michigan has the potential to have said no to our game and then missed Ayo. - Carl Spackler February 25, 2021, 9:26:08
Due to an abundance of caution.... - jdl February 25, 2021, 9:25:51
Izzo better get raked over the coals by the BTN talking heads tonight. - Illiniphil February 25, 2021, 9:19:52
LOL. He's beloved. - Chicago1995 February 25, 2021, 9:40:27
They'll applaud the toughness he installed reminiscent of his early teams - RangerDanger February 25, 2021, 9:28:31
"They wear football pads in practice!"* - Jackie February 25, 2021, 9:44:53
Yup. They use to tongue his balls about this all the time* - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 10:03:48
LOL he will be lauded for cajoling his team to play like cornered animals. #### that guy.* - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 9:24:41
Saw an article from the DFP basically saying exactly that* - ilinni11 February 25, 2021, 9:31:58
Same goon state and city that jacked off to the dirty-ass Pistons. It's to be expected.* - uofi1998 February 25, 2021, 9:47:29
#### you, izzo* - VIV February 25, 2021, 9:16:29
Seriously. What a legitimately terrible person. * - illini February 25, 2021, 9:22:55

^this times 1000* - GhostofPokeyStixPast February 25, 2021, 9:17:10
Let say this again. We have a FF quality team. We got to MSU and Izzo turns his goons lose - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 9:11:13
Well, in general they don't - jdl February 25, 2021, 9:18:22
This has to be part of the reason* - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 9:25:31
I think so - jdl February 25, 2021, 9:28:07
Tom Izzo "Basketball" - Chicago1995 February 25, 2021, 8:59:02
Izzo probably also pissed he lost a 5star recruit who is zooming with the Illini staff* - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 9:09:55
this makes sense as to why his mom was flipping out on Twitter after the game.* - illfan23 February 25, 2021, 8:54:49
I assumed she was flipping out because her son was getting mauled and the refs seemed - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 8:58:06
both are likely true* - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 9:05:17
I wonder if this is one of the reason's Underwood talked about him going in the draft - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 8:45:18
Reminds me exactly of how LSU coach Dale Brown demanded Shaq go pro his Junior year back in '92. - illinilosch February 25, 2021, 8:52:16
I don't think Shaq was literally beaten to death - ATL February 25, 2021, 8:55:57
No, but this game is the reason he uses Icy Hot today. - osklister February 25, 2021, 9:29:52
So Rennis dunked on zombie Shaq? * - jdl February 25, 2021, 8:58:06
the most elaborate weekend at bernie-ing ever* - biclops February 25, 2021, 8:57:11
#### the B1G and these ####ing refs for letting it get to this point - jayd February 25, 2021, 8:43:44
the refs in this particular game should be held accountable...terrible in general, - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 9:06:48
Can we just go on a covid pause?* - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 8:42:54
Do it like scUM...we don't have positives on the hoops team, but some 3rd string - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 9:09:03
We should. Give the big ten the middle finger and say we will be back in 2 weeks* - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 8:46:59
He clearly had a mark on his nose the other night when shooting FTs. Man, that sucks.* - voiceofreason February 25, 2021, 8:42:04
Well guys, MSU and Izzo just got upgraded in the all time hate list* - Cunativeson February 25, 2021, 8:42:00

FUJW better raise holy hell with the B1G* - Jackie February 25, 2021, 8:40:34
That phone call should have happened during the game. - osklister February 25, 2021, 8:45:53
I was kind of taking that L in stride, wasn't our game, they mucked it up, etc - John Coctostan February 25, 2021, 8:45:16
Well said. - illinijohn February 25, 2021, 13:57:08
Its too simple to blame it on the league offices. - CWR10 February 25, 2021, 8:49:51
Eh i don't buy that. The league office could clean it up tomorrow if they chose to - John Coctostan February 25, 2021, 9:07:44

90/10 rule in effect * - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 8:41:43
So let’s say they sit him for the last 4 games and we lose all 3 road games - OB25 February 25, 2021, 8:40:35
All teams get to submit any known issues like this - jdl February 25, 2021, 8:43:51
Unless they abandon looking at injuries, they’d have to consider it. - Carl Spackler February 25, 2021, 8:42:49
If they ever did abandon it, this would be the year, as there might just be too much to do it fairly - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:46:16
Yep, posted that in another thread - jdl February 25, 2021, 8:51:09
Yes* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:42:43
Or so they say......but this year will be a mess in that department. - HectorVillanueva19 February 25, 2021, 9:44:15

Yeah, I heard "a few games" * - 1 NEW February 25, 2021, 8:33:24
As someone who broke his twice, you can play with a busted nose. * - illini February 25, 2021, 8:14:14
Same here. He must not have passed concussion check afterwards* - GhostofPokeyStixPast February 25, 2021, 9:16:21
can you play if you have a concussion from when you got your nose broke?* - illfan23 February 25, 2021, 8:42:45
I was just going to ask this. Don’t guys play with a broken nose all the time? - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:16:14
Makes me wonder if he also had a concussion or some swelling that's impacted his breathing - illini February 25, 2021, 8:29:44
Someone on Loyalty is claiming they couldn't get the mask in time for tonight - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:49:51
Maybe it's just an excuse not to play before he transfers ;-) * - ATL February 25, 2021, 8:26:02
Time to break out the Rip Hamilton mask* - Cunativeson February 25, 2021, 8:18:56
I almost posted during FTs that his nose looked broken. * - Tuscy February 25, 2021, 8:14:05
Nope. No doughnuts for you. ;-) * - illinijohn February 25, 2021, 11:05:17
If true, start Curbelo or Williams? * - larue33 February 25, 2021, 8:05:40
Curbelo, for sure* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:08:26
Williams on senior night?* - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 8:07:57
That’s probably right, but Curbelo will play 35 minutes if Ayo is out* - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:09:30
Double double assists and turnovers? * - meanjeans February 25, 2021, 9:27:16
Not sure he can play that long without fouling out* - Mrap24 February 25, 2021, 8:13:05
He’s going to need to be smart. This team’s ability to create offense without Ayo or Belo - GMAW February 25, 2021, 8:15:06
Definitely. I just think we start the two seniors in this case. - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 8:10:50
that's a strong call too...that makes TF the primary ball handler. - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 8:09:02
my first thought is...that would make 2 frosh starters. not good... - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 8:06:55
Belo * - jdl February 25, 2021, 8:06:42
If true, that is heart-breaking for him. Bad enough that fans can't be there to - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 7:59:06
as an aside, Diglet#1 broke his nose/possible concussion last night in last warm up before - OWWDig February 25, 2021, 8:08:00
Oh man, just realized if this is true, it ruins Ayo's last home game* - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 7:45:07
And Iowa fans will point to it as to why he isn't POTY* - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 7:46:21
Did it happen when Sissoko jammed his elbow into Ayo's face mid flight and the - GrandmotherPearlsJam February 25, 2021, 7:40:16
Yes * - 1 NEW February 25, 2021, 7:41:03
I don't think he made a shot after that* - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 7:44:48
He made a layup just before the buzzer * - jdl February 25, 2021, 7:59:31
Ok* - Tooldresser February 25, 2021, 8:00:33
That is an accomplishment given how many layups we didn't make that game* - Dilbert February 25, 2021, 8:11:49
I've heard the same from my sources * - 1 NEW February 25, 2021, 7:37:59
