    Yes, its a 2 player team per side. So the numbers will not work out for TIX issues. We will have to put a lot more women in new sport slots (not just more slots from the WVB team). I see the problem in the philanthropy because we just do not have the alumni base that Stanford, cal, or even st Mary’s has. So its probably got to be on the parents to pull this one off. We better figure something out fast, because if we don’t we will have to eliminate a men’s team to comply with TIX.

    So they win by 20 trying to “keep the score down”and the refs disprected them and favored us? Then the killer- we throw up a 3 by a reserve that misses at the clock. So baaad!! I believe Taylor applied for our HC position, but he is a hothead. Glad we didn’t hire him. Also, This Khalil may be a good player- given. That he should be such an idiot not so much. Yes, much swagger to this FS team and a lot not to like or respect. Hope the rest of the BW is watching. Also, very poor attendance at 1200+. Or Is that the average for them? We will probably put 3000+ in the stands for the replay.

    Well, thats about all we get out of this game. A unnecessary and stupid Fullerton game ending episode. Good for the Aggies game preparation next time. Not a smart Fullerton move. Very Disappointed in their coach an aggie alum.

    This will be the first ICA sport that is (entirely?) supported by philanthropic means. So, this is a big test and an issue that we have never encountered before or know what to reasonably expect. Will this be the parents of the players? Alums? I believe that the parents of the field hockey team did pony up for the new hockey field. Apparently it was Berkeley alums who saved the MBB team there from being cut. However we don’t have the alum base by a mile that Berkeley has. Also, this will be a “new team” not an attempt to save an old team with a lot of pride and history (see Jackie Jensen at Berkeley). So my bet is that it will have to be the parents who will mostly pay for this sport at least to get it off the ground. Now the second issue is this (and I don’t know the answer): does TIX required that this new team have funding for an equal number of scholarships to comply with the law? Can philanthropic funds provide this? I don’t think so for a huge team like rowing. So, sorry, i think we are looking at beach volleyball or cheering. Fencing? Hope i am wrong. (How many players on a beach volleyball team? I think 2 that play- i do not know).

    Back to the starting topic- is there going to be a report or announcement about the new woman’s sport public meeting? Anyone go?

    Goags. Go for the rant! Lord knows i have done it on this site. Good for you!
  • New woman’s sport
    Goags. I have no idea what you are talking about. “The Pavilion” is ridiculous? As a name? As a site? “Smelly”? Be careful what you say people read this stuff./ . . .
  • MBB 7 pm Thursday: Aggies (10-5 & 1-0) @ UC Riverside (5-11 & 0-2)
    China one handed dunk? Unbelievable. Great game for the Ags.
    Also a great game for the ladies Pela back in for form; and Cierra as a 5’10” point? Who will ever defend her?

    January 15 is when we will know. Fingers crossed indeed.

    Did anyone attend forum?
  • Peerless season culminates with Payton finalist for Davis WR Doss
    Sure hope you guys are right and he comes back. He must have gotten some smart advice from a neutral party. If he does as well or better next year his stock will rise exponentially at the next level.
  • Practice field is going in...
    CP just seems to have a lot of big givers for athletics which we don’t have. I would task Dr Blue to find out why that is so. We sure have a lot of academic giving- But not much for big athletic projects. If not for Bruce Edwards and the Schalls we would be close to zero. Do not have any idea as to why this is.
  • WBB 2 pm Saturday: Hawai'i (7-7) @ the Aggies (11-3)
    Morgan has great mobility and quickness for a big. She could have gone 30+ of not fore some missed easy shots that just rolled out. Pele is getting her game on as well. Very confident UC Davis team out there today. They will be very hard to beat. Go Ags!
  • WBB 7 pm Thursday: Aggies (10-3) @ UC Irvine (8-6)
    OK I’m no coach but fast down the court, quick passes and a smart point. We can do this!
  • WBB 7 pm Thursday: Aggies (10-3) @ UC Irvine (8-6)
    Does this mean we face the 2-3 zone from now on?
  • WBB 7 pm Thursday: Aggies (10-3) @ UC Irvine (8-6)
    Hope Morgan has worked on her 10’ jumper. Oregon states big 6’ 5” German girl just laid back and protected the basket forcing Morgan to take that shot and she did not make many. I am sure Jen saw this and Morgan has the skill to overcome the problem. Go Ags!

    Are there plans for this project? I thought that swimming had its own offices at the pool. Like to see the project plans.
  • Death of the enterprise? Sac bee?
    Maybe, but now they want UC Davis to spend its precious resources for what amounts to a sac redevelopment project. Go figure.
  • Death of the enterprise? Sac bee?
    Agalum you have a very valid point. At least you and i read a newspaper together. We can agree to disagree on the content which is fine and good. But my main point is that ironically the bee (very liberal we can agree) is not a supporter of very liberal UC Davis or the City of Davis which the bee constantly dirides as that “quirky” little college town. So this is not a politically driven situation, especially when you consider that the bee is very supportive of UC Berkeley and covers cal sports much mor than UCD’s. IMHO the bee considers UC Davis/City of Davis’ positive image as a threat to sac’s and that is the reason for the lack of support. Therefore, we have to do everything we can to prevent the demise of the Enterprise. SUBSCRIBE TO THE ENTERPRISE!!!
