He is what everybody in the Pac-12 is doing. Looks like there are only 3 true Midnight Madness type of events (ours, Oregon and Washington State). Arizona, Stanford and ASU are having open scrimmages the weekend of Oct 19/20. Utah and USC are having essentially kickoff luncheons. UCLA is having a week of festivities at the end of the month to celebrate the reopening of Pauley Pavilion. And Oregon St, UW and CAL aren't doing anything of note.
Oct 12 events
Oregon will be having its Matt Knight Madness at the conclusion of the Ducks’ 6 PM women’s volleyball contest. If the past and this year’s promo video is any indication, it looks like there will be some snazzy introductions for both the men’s and women’s teams, followed by a slam dunk contest, a scrimmage and perhaps even a little dancing. As only Oregon can do, the Ducks will be raffling away custom Pit Crew Air Jordans and jackets, in addition to giving away t-shirts and autographed basketballs from both Paul Westhead’s and Dana Altman’s squads.
There will be ZZUMania at Bohler Gym for Washington State with activities starting at 9 PM. Included in the festivities are a three-point contest for the women’s team and a scrimmage and dunk contest for Brock Motum and Co. If you’re a current Coug, you have a chance to win $500 for spring semester books; if not, you still have a chance to win a couple of courtside tickets to the Gonzaga game on December 5.

I am so excited for it, but I am disappointed in how it was marketed. I don't know exactly how better to do it, but I mentioned it to some of my buddies to go to it and they didn't realize it was Friday. Needless to say they are going because they love basketball, but there are quite a bit of students out there like my friends who would go but don't even know it is happening.
I won't be able to watch. I couldn't even finish the video.

You think they will have highlights of the dunk contest etc?
Would be SHOCKED if there isn't extensive CU video coverage. Wonder what makes it to the P12 Network.
I didn't think they charged for Volleyball... Or was that just free for students? I can't remember.
I would have thought an email blast to the students should have happened.
Me too... we did get an email this week about the happenings athletically, but it was a sub story at the very bottom and covered mostly the football game yesterday. I think an email all about Buff Madness would've been easy and needed. Hopefully we will have a good turnout!

Unfortunately, sounds like a pretty small crowd. A few thousand it sounds like.
Still really early

Considering the size of the crowd that is here, and the fact that this was supposed to have started half an hour ago, my guess is this is the last time we'll be having Buffs Madness. Bummer.

It's over. CU beat Arizona State in five sets.
Cool, got the right stream.

Loved Dinwiddie's "The Mayor #25" T-shirt that he put on as he was being introduced...
