Very happy to see that they are continuing to do this. For those of you who want to see what the sea of gray looked like, they show a small part of it in the highlight video. Its unfortunate that they didnt also get a view of the entire student section because it was huge, and almost everyone was wearing the shirt.
Also, for those of you who are interested, the video opens with me on the left with the painted face and wig, CAHoya07 in the middle with the wig and aviator glasses, and the occasionally posting OklaHoyan on the right.
The student section and the t-shirts were truly an enormous success. I hope the relatively big loss doesnt turn some people away because having a student section even close to that large all year long would be amazing. For those of you not there, it was really impressive and it was what I expect out of a college student section. The only thing that can really compare from last year was the Duke game, and that is for obvious reasons. The Duke game had more students in attendance, but less unified because there was no t-shirt.
Oh, and Camille Powell approached me about the t-shirts and asked me a few things about them. She also took my email so Im assuming she might contact me about it.

Great work, 2007, it was not for trying that we lost tonight. I hope the rest of the students gives the team a chance to show what I think they could be and continues to support them. I know you and my surrogate at the game tonight, CAHoya, will continue to cheer for the team. Happier days are coming.
Agreed that the highlights are a nice feature, especially for us out of towners... but they need some new music - that 70s cop show stuff has got to go!
I am not a complete idiot. There are some parts missing.

Haha, I'm your surrogate now? Well, I hope my brief appearance on the highlight video, in aviators and wig nonetheless, shows that I am doing you proud. ;D

Thanks to GUHoyas.com for continuing the video highlights.
It was great to see some of the action on and off the court. I loved Roy's "flush" (and "lefty hooker in the lane"), Green's block, and the Kurt Shirts!!!
Ditto here with all the "fan comments" about the Sea of Gray materializing .......... best $250 contribution to a cause that I'll ever make !!! Seeing all those shirts was a great reward and you guys are to be congratulated for taking the initiative. Can't stop laughing when I re-watch those 3 crazy "mugs" on that video.
P-A-T-I-E-N-C-E is my motto for this coming season as JT III works through the stages of turning things around for the Hoyas. The signs of improvement won't always be reflected in the end result score, but in the level of coherent play.
I hope that the student support keeps the players' (and coaches') spirits buoyed even through the rough patches. It's one of the ingredients to rebuilding.

Well, without your $250 contribution to get the ball rolling, we could not have done it. So much love and appreciation your way, Hoya Lawya, you were one of the key ingredients in getting this going.
As for us 3 crazy "mugs," there will be more where that came from, just wait. ;D

Haha, no I wouldn't say that. I would just say that Hoya Lawya was very generous, and we are very thankful for that. We are also very thankful for the donations from everyone else, whether it was $250 or $50, you were all crucial in helping the sea of gray materialize.

Not sure what the picture quality was last night, but I got pretty good quality on a 3" x 4" window, streaming in quicktime. A full screen would probably give me a pretty crappy picture, but I thought that what they have up is decent for free mpg standards. Not sure what kind of memory/bandwidth is needed to stream a larger file than that. But if you haven't tried on a smaller vid screen, I highly recommend it.
