Ran across this auction item through facebook. Thought it was for a good cause and thought Panthernation might have some willing bidders for it.

Every player on the 2010 roster's name and number along with coach Ben Jacobsen's signature grace this Official NCAA Autograph Ball, making it a prized possession of any purple-blooded Panther fan across the nation. You know you want it. So let us tell you why we want you to have it.
We are UNI's Collegiate Chapter of Habitat for Humanity. Our mission is to sponsor a home for a deserving family in the Cedar Valley all by ourselves, to begin construction next school year. We've been fundraising all year, and way back in January, the UNI Athletic Department graciously agreed to have the men's basketball team sign a basketball for us to raffle off. The Waterloo, Iowa, Scheels readily donated the basketball.
The UNI 2010 men's basketball team took over from there, and made this ball truly a collector's item.
THE TEAM THAT BEAT #1 KANSAS
The biggest upset of the 2010 NCAA Tournament. The first University of Northern Iowa team to advance to the Sweet Sixteen. A perfect season at home in the McLeod Center. This is arguably the best basketball team that has ever played for UNI.
This ball is signed by a loaded roster. The man that had the shot we will be talking about for 20 years--Ali Farokhmanesh. Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year--Adam Koch. The man who got inside Sherron Collins' head--Kwadzo Ahelegbe. And we haven't even mentioned Jordan Eglseder, Johnny Moran, Lucas O'Rear, Jake Koch, or Marc Sonnen yet. Missouri Valley Conference Coach of the Year? Check.
There are only a few of these basketballs out there to start with. But this is the only one that can help build a house.
Thank you for your support by bidding on this basketball signed by the University of Northern Iowa Men's Basketball Team.
GO PANTHERS!!!
