The right side is good. The left side shows "he who shall not be named lest the killing of kittens commence" with a familiar facial expression. I think he's crying.

The more exposure the better. Keep it coming.

Best part of the article:
“From that point, the crowd was great, very loud,” Wojcik said. “We lost our composure a little bit. But I’m really proud of the way we fought back. They made the free throws down the stretch and beat us.”

We need to pack the Bart Saturday!

Covered in WSJ this morning as well though same AP write up as the Rivals site put up. Good coverage, nevertheless.Milsap, Drake bail out No. 25 UAB

Yep, another other good thing about being ranked is getting included in ESPN's highlights. Exposure is good for you and good for the league. Congrats on your ranking.

Sadly we are not ranked according to ESPN. They don't have us a #25 (that's the AP poll) so we don't show up on their ticker. I watched Sportscenter last night and we were not even mentioned, let alone highlight footage.

Keep winning (except, hopefully, not against us) and they'll have to move you into the top 25. Hopefully we can join you at some point. If not this year, then next year. The more teams from C-USA we have in the top 25 and in the tourney the better.

After reading the article I looked on the right side of the page and clicked on UAB merchandise and saw some pretty cool UAB gear available by Yahoo Sports Shop!
