Jake High-Fives Jake
AP Photo/Matthew Putney
Yesterday afternoon my dad called me to tell me about a photo that appeared in my hometown newspaper. What? A picture of me in the paper? For what?
I scrambled to my computer to find the above AP photo. It's Jake high-fiving Jake. As in, Jake Kelly and me. For a second I felt like a giddy third-grader. Oh my God, it's me with the star player of Saturday's game.
Hey, I still idolize the Hawkeyes. I grew up a fanatic. I still have a framed poster of Dean Oliver, Reggie Evans, Luke Recker and Duez Henderson with each of their autographs hanging up in my room back home. So yeah, it actually feels pretty cool to see a picture of me and Jake Kelly exchanging fives.
Thus, I figured I had to share it with somebody else. So here you go.

Thanks Bayside. I thought I was a follower of everyone's blog but apparently not yours. I'm not sure how I missed yours. That's the reason I haven't commented on your blog--not because I don't like it.
