Not just saw it at release in a theatre, but at the Co-Ed Theatre on Green Street! My girlfriend and I saw it and enjoyed it, but my roommate at Weston Hall went nuts over it. He was quoting lines from it for weeks!

So Michigan gets Vlad Goldin AND Danny Wolf, Indiana gets Ballo, Ohio State gets Bradshaw, Purdue has a 7'2" star freshman center coming in and now Ugonna is headed to Alabama instead of Champaign. Are we sure we don't have any interest in Omoruyi? Not being able to stop bigs hurt us last...
