This is a page set up to go along with a petition set up to let Converse, Nike, and College Universities know that College basketball just isn't the same without Converse on the court. List of targets for the 2007-2008 season is being compiled now. Because of the relationship with Dwyane Wade, Marquette University is the number one target. 2008 marks the 100th year of Converse and this is a great time to make a return to the NCAA
I do not work for Converse, Nike, NCAA, or any of the Universities that will be mentioned. I am just a fan and
as I am still in college myself I feel that this is the best way for me to work for this goal.
Soon I will outline goals and what you can do to help.
Who I'd like to meet: Jack Boys, Phil Knight, Tom Crean
