I think Nebraska hired their social media manager and they're making up for lost time today. A lot of pictures and videos of some of the promotions they did during the College World Series and some youth training work the players do.

When will they introduce the Omaha team name and branding? And why won't it be the Omaha Oracles...since everything in Nebraska these days is a nod to Warren Buffet lol.

I DM'd Jason Derulo a bunch of suggestions on Instagram a while back (like he'd even read it, respond to it, or that he's the only one making any kind of decisions lol) and I also included the Omaha Oracles in there as an idea. Not because it's the best name, but it does flow really well. All my suggestions I tried to tie to what we could nickname the arena. There's a lot of Greek sounding options like this one and at the time I was assuming CHI as the center, which is already Greek sounding. But you know, the Temple or Parthenon or Delphi or whatever. Lots of things could work with that idea.

Here are ideas I DM'd Jason Derulo on Instagram a while back because I'm lame lol:
Hey Jason! Some name ideas for Omaha ProVball: Omaha Oracles; Olympians - CHI Arena is very Greek sounding; Monarchs or Sovereigns with royal purple and gold - CHI Arena can be The Palace or The Court; Prairie Wind or Fire; Flames, Embers, or Blaze - the arena is The Inferno; Onyx; Cougars (funnier than serious but it technically works)/Mt Lions; Outlaws - arena is The Big House; Mammoth - world's largest Mammoth found in NE - arena is The Grave Yard?; Blizzard - arena is The Freezer
Also: (Sandhill) Cranes which are very native NE birds - they are tall and swift - arena can be The Nest; Sirens like Greek goddesses and also tornado sirens; Basilisks because I love deep greens, black and red or yellow- vicious and kill with one look - arena is the Snake Pit or just the Pit; Chimera is a Greek fire breathing female lion goat snake monster; Harpies Greek bird like death spirit; Angels - arena is Pergatory

Lol, PVF all about Greek and Roman Mythology. Atlanta Sirens Orlando Fates San Diego Gorgons I know right! Well, who knows, but I'm sure there's something really relevant and Omaha they could come up with that isn't too derivative. Someone had suggested the Omahawks, which also sounds great, but the IA Hawkeyes next door make me like it less. I am hoping for some different colors as well if possible. NU is red, Creighton is blue, IA is black and gold, generic PVF is already like black and gold. Would love powerful greens or purples.

With the large retirement community in Florida, Orlando could easily find 3 crones to share an eye.

I don't know what the Columbus logo is supposed to be, but I love her. Some sorta Volleyball demon-witch? I dunno. Play starts end of January or very beginning of February. My understanding is that the league is waiting on the final arena deals so they can finalize the schedule, so it makes sense…
