this makes it seem so much more official and real...

indiana has their basketball roster up... click here to see verdell's profile!

i can't wait for college ball to start so i can watch him play... how exciting will that be?!?!? now again, don't get me wrong, illinois is still number one in my heart, but indiana will be my number two team! i hate to admit it, but i'm more excited about indiana's season starting than i am about ours... it's just so much different when (1) you are out of college and you don't go to all the games anymore so you don't even know who half the players are and (2) you actually know someone on another team... not just know who they are, but actually know him to the point where you graded his algebra 2 tests! i mean really, the kid sat right in front of the overhead...
