Wisconsin fans shower Maryland's Stone with 'You can't read' chants
Maryland center Diamond Stone is public enemy No. 1 in his home state of Wisconsin.
The freshman, who was a five-star prospect in 2015 and hails from Milwaukee, rejected a scholarship offer from the Badgers during his recruitment, instead choosing to attend Maryland.
Wisconsin fans apparently haven't forgotten, or forgiven, his decision. The Badgers faithful are letting Stone hear it Saturday as the Terps are in Madison to take on Wisconsin.

The ACT refers to the national college admissions examination, which Stone is rumored to have done poorly on, though he told The Washington Post in March that he scored a 20, which is enough to enroll at Wisconsin.
The heckling didn't stop there:
So, Wisconsin students just chanted "You can't read" to Diamond Stone.
C'mon, Madison.
