Well?  I know most of the Skyline & CUNYAC teams use the Wilson NCAA.

A round ball.  And when a guy goes up for a shot and it gets blocked in his face, my friend and I like to lick our lips and say, "It tastes like leather!".

I would think that the majority of schools use that ball

Logshow - assuming you are still on the west coast, you would be surprised by how much Anaconda Sports (The Rock) has made an imprint in college sports and more and more schools are now using The Rock balls.

Interesting...The host schools required to play with the Wilson NCAA balls in the tourney though right?

According to the 2008 NCAA Men's Basketball Handbook:

"Wilson NCAA Solution basketball shall be used for all 2008 tournament games. The manufacturer will send the balls directly to the tournament managers.
Four-team sites will receive eight balls. Six balls will be sent to each two-team site. During warm-ups, each team should use at least two Wilson NCAA Solution balls provided for the championship. A game ball will be awarded to each competing team at the conclusion of sectional play and to the losing teams in first- and second-round games.
Additional practice balls, preferably the Wilson NCAA Solution, are to be furnished by the host institution."
