Time's up. Try Notre Dame, UCLA, and, for at least this week, THE Ohio State University. Read the details here.
I'm not kidding myself. Heading into Chapel Hill tonight without Greg Oden doesn't leave much room for long-term optimism, but I'm going to kick back and enjoy the history . . . at least until 9:00 tonight.

In the oft-repeated words of a certain ubiquitous seminary president, "I shouldn't allow myself to be dragged into this, but . . ." after watching last night's game, I'm feeling pretty confident that a simultaneous #1 will return by February. I'm far more concerned about Oden's wrist than about who's wearing the visitor jerseys on January 8th.
You thought I was talking about you? ;-)

And by the way, re: Hoping in UCLA
Speaking of UCLA, I am going to see them play this weekend - http://www.stlouissports.org/soccer/index.php
Carolina isn't far behind:

Oops.
What a colossal choke! Unbelievable! :-)
Yeah, I'm going to withdraw my application for prophet status.
