I'm working on a TV Feature on Comcast Channels (OUTV) 11/74 Depending on where you are out about the Grizz Gang and Women's Volleyball team. Those should hit the air in the next week or so. About the volleyball feature I spent a good amount of time in the O'Rena in the past week or two previewing the Volleyball season, including an interivew with Head Coach Rob Beam and I got to sit in on a practice, Coach Beam was very helpful in me getting all the information I needed for the feature and its good to see him building something with the ladies.

As for the Grizz Gang:

"The 2008-09 Grizz Gang student organization (student fan zone) is gearing up for another exciting year of athletic contests. The Grizz Gang, a recognized campus student organization, currently comprised of over 500 members, encourages all students to become a member of the Oakland Athletics tradition." Read More

One thing in my talks in getting info on the Grizz Gang with various people is

"Students registered for the 2008-09 Grizz Gang are invited to attend the Grizz Gang Jumpin’ Jamboree on Thursday, September 4 from 5:00pm-9:00pm at Hamlin Circle. The Jumpin’ Jamboree will allow students the opportunity to meet and greet with OU coaches and athletes, received signed team posters, take photos with the Grizz, participate in a variety of outdoor games, and enjoy free food and beverages."
