Nike schools commit to event

Michigan State athletic director Mark Hollis may have pulled off his greatest scheduling coup. Hollis told ESPN.com that he has secured commitments from 16 schools to participate in a two-tournament event in honor of Nike co-founder Phil Knight's 80th birthday. The 16 Nike-sponsored schools -- mostly elite programs -- include Michigan State, Kentucky, Duke and North Carolina. (ESPN.com)
