So when is our men's basketball banquet?

I haven't heard a thing regarding time and place - either in the media or by email from the basketball office. Anyone know?
Lots of teams have had them already.

Not having one. Not enough guys.

I never received anything for last season's banquet, but had in the past. Is it still open to donors?

Heard they've downsized from a large to medium pizza.

You're right - last year's was almost held in secret. I didn't know we even had one until the awards were announced the next day.

Are these things usually open to the public?

No only Cyclone club members and season ticket holders.

Ah, but still a pretty sizeable group of people. Very intersting. The implication being that they want to keep dissenters out?

Come to think of it, I received emails/notifications of every sport's awards banquet last year - football, women's bb, volleyball, soccer, etc. - except men's basketball.

Lots of schools still do what we used to - held it at Hilton, sell tables on the floor, and let fans come in and sit in the seats for the speeches/awards.
