A few days late....
This article mentions coverage of women's sports and volleyball in particular. SAs taking up Sheffield's campaign for more TV coverage.

Don't live anywhere close to these stores. Hopefully can order from their website. It does appear on Amazon for an August 1st pre-order.

Not too talk anyone out of buying the book right away, but I wonder about the kind of book selling autograph events they sometimes have. Maybe graduated players or even NIL enabled current players etc, along with Dennis. I might hold off to see if anything like that happens.

If you requested seats in Gold, check your email.

I’m sure the Superman’s book is a nice read for Badger fans, but I’m more interested in the future. Who runs this team after nine years of precision like setting and Tom Brady like leadership. There are probably 30 pages in this thread dedicated to that very question. Not much left to say about it until we see them in action. Worth mentioning that most of us don't have a lot to go on because the spring matches were not televised, and didn't include some really key players (Franklin, Bramschrieber, Hart, GG, Wrobel).

If you requested seats in Gold, check your email. Don't leave the rest of us hanging here! My seat in section E was taken away, and I decided to opt for silver instead, but I still have a 'rooting interest', so to speak. What does the email say?

It says we got gold, fill out a survey for seat preferences, giving level will determine seat assigments.

(I thought of this when I was still considering "going for the gold": you may want to consider "donating" $260 instead of $250, to move ahead in the line, etc.)

The email simply informs the recipient that their application for Gold level was accepted. A short survey asks whether one prefers aisle seating vs. being close to center court and whether one prefers lower (2-5) versus higher (6-9) rows. Actual seat assignment will occur later.

When I talked to Marcus in the ticket office while I was thinking about gold vs silver, he gave me the impression that such a survey would be coming to all (?) those in the various reserved sections. But nothing yet for me and my silver request.

I’m not seeing anything in my email or account yet, but I’m going for Bronze still.

Just a suggestion. No longer my concern (until the convert 'silver' sections to required similar "donations" in a couple years.)

I’m not sure theres a rhyme or reason to some of the donor rank, and how you advance up it, aside from time & donating for years and years consecutively. Even after a lot of people dropped out (or went up/down a level) after the 2020 season, our donor rank was virtually unchanged at the bottom of the level we’re at. We’ve been in roughly the bottom 5 percentile, even though there’re were quite a few less donors in our level in 2021.

I really have no idea; my donor level must be zero. :-) (Unless we can count donations to the Carbone Cancer Center. I'd be doing a lot better then! another :-) )
