What can J.J. Jumper do for my school?

J.J. Jumper hits the hardwood for the sixth consecutive year during the 2005-06 NCAA basketball season. J.J. travels across the country making appearances at Divisions I, II and III men's and women's basketball games in an effort to draw young fans to your home court.

J.J. brings giveaways for fans.

J.J. performs skits and promotions during timeouts and/or halftime.

J.J. mingles with the crowd during breaks in the action.

J.J. poses for pictures and signs autographs.

J.J. does backflips into the Columbia student television broadcast, destroying $6,500 worth of equipment.

I don't want to say Harvard's gameplan was poor, but...

Bad news, America.

J.J. Jumper is coming back to Jadwin Gym on March 7th.

Columbia's fancy "return entry" hand stamp.

The inaugural class of the Columbia Athletics Hall Of Fame.

"Nobody's phatter than Mike Strittmatter."

Behind the Princeton bench, a Columbia fan shooting baskets attached at the waist by a rope to a second Columbia fan shooting baskets at the other end of the court. Isn't this the sort of thing that got Abu Ghraib shut down?

The game was more exciting than this child might indicate.

I question this sign's slogan.

Covertly trying to take a photograph of YES announcer John Sterling.

In the morning, it snowed.

The pennant from the previous night's reception made a repeat appearance in Hanover.

Upon closer inspection we discovered that the previous occupants of our hotel room had covered each of the stickers beneath the sprinklers...

...with halves of peanut butter crackers.

Because of the snow (24" in Hartford?!) we stayed an extra day in New Hampshire, warmed by the fake fireplace.

If Soul Man knew about this, I doubt he would have been so eager to pose.

Camden Riversharks mascot Finley with WFMU mascot Mike Lupica.

(Please don't tell these nice people about the Carnegie Mellon game.)

Jake Wilson from Basketball U. watches the game live at Jadwin while simultaneously streaming action in Ithaca and at the Palestra. Woah.

For the first time since the early 1990s I sat on "the other side" of Jadwin Gym. How strange to be able to see the players' feet during a game!
