Hey Yusuf,

I've decided to go ahead with the idea for doing a compilation of people's conference rankings. I'd love to have you participate if you're interested! The article about it is at

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/97928-take-two-call-for-your-ncaa-basketball-conference-rankings

and you can email me your rankings at nathanmedic2003@yahoo.com (or just leave them on my profile). Ideally, you can submit a top-10, but it's perfectly acceptable to submit a top-5, top-8 or whatever you're up to. Feel free to let me know what you think, and I hope you'll weigh in!

The ACC needs as much representation as it can get! ;-)

Great first post Yusuf, and welcome to Bleacher Report. I look forward to more of your work. We are starting to get a great Indians community here on Bleacher Report. We have a couple guys who do game recaps, a couple of us doing commentary and others doing what they can. All in all I think with all of our points of view, it should be a fun summer. If you have any questions feel free to ask Nino Colla or I anytime, we are the community leaders for the Indians page. Go Tribe!
