less than 24 hours now before the "unveiling" of the john paul jones arena and the 2006-2007 version of UVa men's basketball.
since this season has been a complete wash so far... the hoos are in a rebuilding year, and who the hell knows what's going on with the redskins, i'm particularly excited about uva basketball.
throughout my undergraduate years, our basketball team was pretty much terrible. despite being ranked #4 in the country (ha!) first year, we didn't make the dance a single time. however, i really have a connection with the basketball team. the likes of which i don't have with the football team.
where does that come from? i'm not sure. but i think it has a lot to do with my mom being from north carolina, where, growing up, basketball was life. we were always really big into college basketball as a family growing up. so that's my best guess.
i'm so ready for basketball to start, and i hope that this year's zona game turns out to be a lot like fourth year, when we crushed them and the headline on espn.com read, "yes Virginia!" that was sweet.
sunday night. 7pm. go hoos!
