LHN has no new content and will have the plug pulled on it July 1st. So, it's re-running "the best of" games. Today, they're running a bunch of VB games back-to-back and I happened to stumble upon a game that I was going to pass on until I noticed this player on the other side making kills against our eventual NC team and OMG, it's Jenna Wennas*.
The game is 8/31/2022. Minny is #4 and Texas is #1 and we're both 2-0 and Texas is integrating in 6 new transfers.
And the irony is that it's Zoe Fleck's third game with Texas and I remember her old UCSB team coming into Gregory and playing Texas and getting beat.
Of that starting rotation for Minny:
Jenna Wennas -> Texas Taylor Landfair -> Nebraska Carter Booth -> Wisconsin
*But Wennas did end up hitting 0.184 in that game.

Rewatched the NC game and every time Madi killed from the back row, we started chanting, "You've been BIC'ed!"
Then, I thought about making a t-shirt that had the outline of Madi leaping into the air smashing the ball with the words underneath:
"You've been BIC'ed"
And then I thought about the Longhorn copyright lawyers dropping me a line and then bic'ed myself out of that idea.
If the outline is non-distinct enough and any/all orange you use isn't burnt enough, you'd probably be able to sneak by without issue. That's how Barstool and similar groups get their designs by without getting slapped with C&Ds.

That's how Barstool and similar groups get their designs by without getting slapped with C&Ds. I had to do negotiations back and forth with a well known custom t-shirt company over this design.
I had to take out the word Texas and they were still, "Mmmmm, you need to get permission from the University of Texas" first. A bit more haggling and some other changes and they finally relented. And then, they denied the reverse image of this (burnt orange background with white lettering and borders), I pointed out that they approved the reverse-reverse image and they finally agreed to print the two type of shirts.
The bummer is that their "burnt" orange that's shown in their sample palette comes out "OSU orange", which.....sucks.

Help, Explain BICed. back ? court Bic is a type of backrow attack. Madi is very effective at it. So "BICed" is like "Madi ran a bic, and it scored a point! Haha! Suck it!"

Help, Explain BICed. back ? court BIC is a type of back row attack down the middle of the court. There’s also a D-ball attack which is a back row attack closer to the edge of the court.

Help, Explain BICed. back ? court BIC is short for "Back-row Quick", aka a fast tempo set out of zone 6 (middle back).

My personal fave (even though it's a tip) is the one you hear Jaylen Reyes screaming "BIC! BIC! BIC!" in the background because that's what started off the 11 point run in set 2 of the Natty
