EAST LANSING, Mich. — NCAA tournament selection committee chair Mark Hollis has canceled a planned trip due to issues that have arisen at Michigan State, where he is athletic director.
Spartans basketball coach Tom Izzo says Hollis was looking forward to traveling through 12 states in a 12-day span later this month to watch college basketball games.
But Hollis has more pressing matters on campus.
Michigan State announced Thursday that a police investigation is looking into a sexual assault complaint against three football players, all of whom have been suspended from team activities and evicted from campus housing. The athletic department also suspended a staff member tied to the football program pending the investigation.
Hollis is expected to still lead the selection committee, a role that included discussing preliminary rankings.
