005- Interview with Shawn Roof, University of Illinois Shortstop

For part one of the show, Tom and Todd discuss Dice-K, the Pirates inability to make any good offseason moves and whether the Cubs' Felix Pie will be ready for 2007.

We interview Shawn Roof for the second half of the show. Roof, a senior, is the starting shortstop for the University of Illinois Fighting Illini. In 2006, he was third team All Big Ten and in 2005, he was an All-Star for the Coastal Plain League. He is the son of former professional baseball player and coach, Gene Roof.

During the interview, Roof talks about the Fighting Illini's chances in 2007, growing up around baseball and what gives him the hustle and 'go get 'em' attitude that he has.
