Just got this off the DM register:
Sports Illustrated takes notice of UNI
by Andrew Logue
January 12, 2010
It felt a little like the Sports Illustrated jinx might hit the UNI men’s basketball team early.
The magazine sent a photographer to Tuesday’s game against Bradley and the Panthers squeaked by 52-50.
The SI folks have not told UNI what, when or where their Panther coverage will appear, but it seems like they might be doing something on 7-foot senior Jordan Eglseder.
It shows how coach Ben Jacobson’s team is starting to gain some national recognition.
They were No. 27 in the Associated Press poll, and are being listed as a possible single-digit seed in some NCAA Tournament projections.
Don’t expect this to bring a smile to Jacobson’s face….when asked about UNI’s 14-game winning streak, the coach said, “I don’t talk about it.”

This would be some good news for UNI on a national level. Hope we keep winning so they will want to run a story!
