Nebraska is having theirs tonight and it should be quite an event. They have sold 720 tickets and had to turn many away because they maxed out the facility. It is typically a pretty long night and I'm sure this will stretch out even longer. The best parts are usually the highlight videos and hearing the seniors talk about their experiences. We're losing both Danis and I'm sure they will have many fond memories to recall. Should be a fun night.
Anyone else having theirs tonight or soon?

Minnesota will be honoring Nebraska later this year. Stay tuned for the details.  The Gophers own banquet is next Saturday. Gorf will be doing his famous interpretative dance. The guy comes up with a new one for each season. Hey, it's as good a reason as any for him to slip into the pink tutu. |

Cal has theirs tonite. Always a good time. Don't know if Jillian is flying in from Colo Springs but we hope it works for her to come.
I saw the team in off season practice earlier this week ...can't wait for spring scrimmages.
Nothing definite yet. Enough good teams right around here...to provide some good March games.

I could have sworn those must have been digitally "enhanced" but maybe not? |

Funny stuff tonite at Cal banquet. Tradition has the f/s/j players buy 16" standing up brown bears and dress them in all kinds of silly stuff, one for each senior according to their foibles, inside jokes, favorite clothes, etc etc., and the bears all can have a short saying recorded to play back on cue.... lotsa hoots and hollers.
Jillian is working hard in Colo Springs and got to come too.
Can't wait for the rest of the NT to return.
As usual, awards and great season video recap....

BiK is the one with the pink tutu - he also wears a grass skirt depending on his mood. (R)uffda! is the one with the soiled poncho. In fact I just realized (R)uffda! may be evil incarnate. The dastardly, villainous, rogue of volleyball. A veritable hellion. A beastly brute that feeds on the ichor of the Acosta infested underbelly of the volleyball world. The clue came from the number of letters in each of the words: gopher, soiled, poncho. |

I've never been to any of these banquets. Never had the desire.

Oklahoma is having their's tonight. Should be lots of fun and tears. OU will definitely miss this class of seniors, all five were starters on this seasons team that accomplished so much. I won't be surprised if the large Colombian breaks down in the middle of his speech.

They'll tell you when it's over. And you'll be happy they do that!
BASTA!
