Andre Rison isn't staying quiet any longer.
The former Michigan State footballwide receiver said he was slapped by assistant coach Carl "Buck" Nystrom in the locker room before taking the field at Illinois on Oct. 18, 1986, he told ESPN.
When Nystrom hit Rison, then a sophomore, everyone in the locker room went silent, the former MSU star said. At the time, the late George Perles was in his fourth season; current Alabama coach Nick Saban had been the defensive coordinator for just as long.
