Maybe I'd pay $100 if it was behind our bench but anywhere else. LOL I don't know which side of the court the benches will be; if it is like basketball, they'll be across from 107 and 109, that is in front of 121 and 123.But I used to go to women's hockey when the played at the KC and you could sit anywhere you want. The blue lines for hockey are a handful of seats into 107 and 109 across the aisle from section 108. And the length of a VB court is about the distance from blue line to blue line on a hockey sheet of ice. So I'm pretty sure that about a half-dozen seats into 107 and 109 (and 121, 123) will be the end lines of the court. And my guess for benches would be 121 and 123 - 123 Badger bench - out to the aisles between 120 and 121 and between 123 and 124. 108 and 122 will be the only true sidecourt sections.
The Kohl Center seat map shows that you're correct about the placement of the team benches (across from Sections 107 and 109).

Well she entered the portal after the required date so they had to request the transfer waiver and it seems that process was complicated because she had gotten a pro agent when her plans were to go pro. That's typically a no-no for remaining eligible. So she might end up not being able to play? It’s been awhile since she made the decision to transfer, wouldn’t you think a decision should be made soon? It’s been less than two months.

New uniforms! Less pajama-y! I am not a fan of players' names on jerseys, but at least they don't look like they're dressed for a slumber party.

Not only are they a student athlete they are marketing their brand(s) so having name on jersey assists with that. Their Unis are Better than sports that have different logos for corporations on players jerseys.

By my count of the 'choose by seat location' chart, there are fewer than 100 tickets available for the Florida match in the KC.
That means more than 17K sold. You may as well go ahead and call it a sell-out.

I think it helps people watching on TV to know who's who and deepen the connection to the game overall. The only thing I don't like is when the name is on the upper back. Then hair sometimes makes it harder to see the name. The name should be on the lower back.

You may as well go ahead and call it a sell-out. Another goal should be for at least 15,000 of these people to make sure they're there on game day. :-)

Kind of surprised Izzy, Macdonald and Mccaa didnt do the jump in the lake. Boyer and Gregorski did though. Thats kind of telling for next season, no?

No one wants to discuss jumping into lake and team picture day? ha. They posted more video of it today. Love seeing Shanel get in there.

I mean, we sort of talked about it?
I had a sense in May, when Izzy graduated with her BS in Math, that she’d be staying for Year Five. She said she was starting a masters program; might as well get both years paid for.
McCaa taking her fifth year also makes sense, as that gives her two years as a Badger.
MacDonald I was gonna give a 50/50 shot of staying. Glad she will be - she’s a firecracker.

I mean I knew it already, but seeing the team photo just emphasizes what a job UW has done “reloading” this collection of players/talents into a team that appears it could be formidable. Wow. Can’t wait to see the “chess match” to be played with these talents when the B1G season starts!

5-1 or 6-2? It is the burning question and I am here with the prognostication. 🙂 The answer is in the tea leaves or maybe shall we say rooted in symbolism.
Breaking down the recent hype video from the teams Instagram page is where the answer lies.
Titled 'New look' applies to the uniform but also to team members and the video starts out with
frame 1 - solo shot new recruit G.G frame 2 - solo shot new recruit Wrobel frame 3 - double with L/R Demps/Hammill frame 4 - another frame of Demos/Hammill frame 5 - double with Robinson/Franklin frame 6 - double with Reed/C.C frame 7 - rest of team showing uni names (no Smrek or Orzol) frame 8 - smiling G.G. showing UNI name frame 9 - Franklin showing UNI name frame 10 - A confident Robinson
Each of the 1st 9 frames featured a new player EXCEPT the ones with Demps/Hammill. Coincidence? I think not... And two frames back to back of Hammill with Izzy relegated to Frame 7. The fact the title of video is a 'new look' and adding the above mentioned details cements it for me.
There you have the Zapruder treatment. 😄 A lot of words for 11 seconds of video.

Who says volleyball fans can't be obsessive?
