Referees had to shut down a chant employed by the Wisconsin Badgers' student section Sunday during the men's Big Ten title game against Illinois.
According to SI.com, Wisconsin fans were taunting Illinois guard Terrence Shannon at the foul line as he prepared to shoot by chanting "No Means No," a reference to Shannon's suspension earlier in the season over unsettled allegations that he raped a young woman in Kansas.
Shannon has kept a low profile since rejoining the team in late January, and he hasn't spoken to the media in more than three months. The only talking he's done has been on the court.
Shannon was reinstated after he filed a restraining order, demanding that he be immediately reinstated. A warrant was issued in December for Shannon in Douglas County, Kansas, where he submitted to authorities and was briefly jailed before posting bail and returning to Champaign.
According to ESPN, which obtained a copy of the initial complaint, Shannon was accused of "unlawfully, feloniously, and knowingly engaged in sexual intercourse with a person ... who did not consent to the sexual intercourse under circumstances when she was overcome by force or fear, a severity level 1 person felony."
The temporary restraining order claimed Shannon was not granted due process before he was removed from the team. He was arraigned Jan. 18, but the the trial won't begin until June, after the conclusion of the college basketball season.
Illinois coach Brad Underwood said Shannon has dealt with the situation well.
"Great. He's handled it like a professional," Underwood said. "He knows there's a serious situation out there. He's been an unbelievable teammate but he's been great. He's handled it. His work ethic hasn't changed. It took him a little bit to come back because he's a great, been very professional."
