    In the one on one interview after press conference, Yao said he is going to college this Fall.
    There are a couple of top colleges in Shanghai, but I still think he picked a college in Texas area. His wife went to Huston University. Anyone here has something to share???

    lol there's actually a pretty funny story that Yao told about his then-girlfriend being hit on by some brotha at school.

    she told him she had a boyfriend. the guy is like "who's your boyfriend"

    she says "Yao Ming" and the dude laughs and goes "come on you gotta come up with a better excuse than that."

    Oh, dang. Apparently UH doesn't disqualify former pro athletes from competing in IM sports. That should be entertaining.

    Doubt he comes back to the U.S. I'm pretty sure his family already left Houston
