Realllly Cool Men's College VB Photos

[BoilerUp!]

Ok, I admit, I expected beach photographs with half naked men when I clicked on this thread...

But, the getty pictures with the shadows - those are awesome!
They look like something digitally created. (As opposed to a feasibly possible shot.)

Bump... looking for great '07 pics. What have you got?

I don't know how to post a pic directly, but here is a link to a pic from last year's NAIA national tournament.

The photographer got great shots of all the teams. I just like the emotion shown in this one.

You all will enjoy perusing this site that contains photos from many past years' championships. If the link doesn't take you directly to the M-VB photos, type "Men's Volleyball" in the site's search window and it'll take you to them. These are two examples, but there are many more. That aging Hawaii photo is priceless.

Big Girl in the Middle has some photos of the recent US Men's team scrimmages at:

PS: I found the post on the PrepVolleyball.com on the infrequently visited Boy's Discussion Area. Most of the posts in this area are from me (middle82).

Also some 2006 World League photos from FIVB who must hire Getty Images. The photographers I met in Minneapolis were independent but there photos show up as Getty Images on the FIVB website. I am guessing Getty Images has a network of independent photographers in cities all around the world and hands out assignments.

One more reason to not like BYU... they are Ford fans.

What the hell is #8 going to do with that wrench and is that garbage can positioned like that on purpose?? #17, you're holding a volleyball, not a carburetor.




By the way, though. I do appreciate the originality.

Actually they are not Ford fans and he used that wrench to smash in the windows immediately following the photo shoot...probably...

That 004 campaign was really a good one. They had all the various tuxedo posters up around campus. When they announced their names at games they also would say the last name first such as, "Moreno, Carlos Moreno." It was a pretty cool theme for the national championship year.

I thought the gimmick theme posters stopped in high school.... at least for male sports?

Photos are up from this year's NAIA national tournament. The photographer had a camera attached to the ceiling above the net. Cool perspective.
