Before the NCAA banned on-court stickers, Tom Izzo and several of his fellow coaches made it known they weren't fans of them. It's not because the stickers resulted in an eye-sore, but because they were a slipping hazard and caused injury.
ESPN found another way to get the Big Ten/ACC Challenge logo on the courts during this week's event. The network digitally inserted the "stickers" on the court. And, you wouldn't have known the stickers were missing unless you attended one of the games.
