| | 9 | Biletnikoff Award Dinner For Calvin Johnson As you know, Calvin Johnson won the Biletnikoff Award this year. What
you may not know is that it is actually presented by the Tallahassee
Quarterback Club. Calvin will be formally presented the award on
Friday, February 9th, 2007 during a dinner at the FSU University
Center. The speaker will be former Georgia Tech Head Football Coach
Bill Curry. The VIP reception is at 6PM and the main banquet starts
at 7PM. The Tech coaching staff will be represented by Buddy Geis.
This is a fundraiser, so tickets are steep at $125 each. If you are interested in joining us, please call or email me as soon as possible, as it may already be too late since this event sells out every year.

| | 9 | The LadyJackets Come To Tallahassee The Lady Jackets will be at the Tallahassee Civic Center to play the F$U women in basketball. Tickets are cheap, you can sit right behind the Tech bench, and tip-off is at 7PM.
| | 13 | Men's Basketball Team Game Against F$U To pay half-price for the tickets, go to http://www.seminoles.com and
click on "Online Ticket Center", then click on "Promotion Codes" on
the left-hand side. Next enter "COMCAST" in the text box and click on
"Go", then click on "Ga Tech". To actually pay for these once you've
reserved them, it appears that you will have to create an account.
Still, $9 a ticket to see Tech play is a great deal.
For the third consecutive year, we will be meeting before the game in
the patio of the Spotlight Grille. The doors are opening at 6PM so we
no longer need the name of each person coming in order for you to get
into the Civic Center. The voice of the Yellow Jackets, Wes Durham,
will come by to speak to us about 7:15. If possible, please be at the Spotlight Grille by 7:00 so that you'll be able to give Wes your full attention.
The buffet is $11.95 plus gratuity.
