My inside sources tell me the mystery celebrity will be Pee Wee Herman.

Basketball and track and field are the two women's sports he attends and basketball has been a recent interest. He has basically nothing to do with volleyball and absolutely nothing to do with softball. New softball facilities were paid for by a couple in the North Bend/Coos Bay area. Interested, maybe, attended, no—not women’s basketball. And how many wbb games have you attended at TTATT? From the fall of 2014 through the winter of 2018 I attended roughly 1/2 of their home games. I'd see knight there a few times every year, more the last year. |

I watch every televised home and away game unless it conflicts with a Beaver sport. Never have seen Phil there and have been told very recently by a source close to the program that he doesn’t go to their games. That’s my best and final. Go Beavs! |

I’ve heard the same from people close to the program. The only game they know he’s attended is last year’s semi-final against Baylor.

Except Phil Knight doesn’t attend their women’s basketball games. Really? I wonder who it was i saw at their games. He doesn't attend every game but he most definitely makes some of them. Maybe it was Al Davis doing a "Weekend at Phil's Place" thing? (I originally attached a photo of creepy Al but it was just too scary to subject the good people of this board to.)  |

We should get Tonya Harding as the celebrity at Gill. Sabrina better watch her knees.

We should get Tonya Harding as the celebrity at Gill. Sabrina better watch her knees. I saw her in a store at Lloyd Center when I was a wee lad. It was before the infamous attack, but she had a reputation for being volatile all along IIRC. I'm pretty sure I knew not to stare at her. |

Like this game needs a "celebrity." The attention should be on the players.

According to Coach Kelly on KEZI. Reporters: Kobe Bryant perhaps? He is a Sabrina fan! Made me retch. Why not just let this special weekend of competition speak for itself. But noooooo, Nike U has to turn it into a spectacle. I can imagine the sick, putrid little bumper stories they are planning if it is Kobe and Sabrina. So who was the Surprise Celebrity? |

No clue. Either I wasn't paying close enough attention, or the Pac-12 Network didn't focus much on celebrities in the crowd in order to keep the attention on the game. The only person I noticed they showed that could possibly be classified as a "celebrity" is Dan Fouts, but I don't think he is the mystery celebrity that was being referenced prior to the game.

 They probably didn't show up. All speculation and talk was swept under the rug. |
