President's Message

ROSE BOWL BABY! 49-17 and it wasn't that close! Congratulations to Coach Carroll and the whole football team, especially the seniors. What a run it's been!

I know everyone that went to the game had a blast, especially those smart enought to ride the Famous TCSD Rooter Bus. Those of us who stayed in San Diego had a grand time at our "Official" host hotel, the Ramada Inn & Conference Center. They put out a super buffet and we ate and drank our way through SC's great victory over the Illini.

We have a busy month coming up starting with a viewing party for the USC vs. UCLA basketball game on Saturday, January 19 at 12:30 p.m. at the Ramada Inn & Conference Center, 5550 Kearny Mesa Road, San Diego 92111. If you think you'll be coming please RSVP to Ray Weber or me (our emails are in the contact section) so the restaurant will be ready for us.

On January 24 we welcome two great Trojans, Darrell Rideaux and Brandon Hancock, to the Ramada for a luncheon to celebrate the 2007 season and the 2008 Rose Bowl, and to look forward to the 2008 season. Letter of Intent Day is the first Wednesday in February so we can expect Darrell and Brandon to have lots to say about the potential "nuggets" in the new class of recruits.

Something near and dear to me, Men's Volleyball, comes to San Diego to face the Tritons of UCSD on Saturday night, February 2 at RIMAC Center at 7:00 p.m. While the plans aren't complete, pencil in a dinner with the team and chalk-talk before the match. Please continue to monitor the website as we will update it there as soon as the plans are finalized.

Last, but certainly not least, ROAD TRIP! The TCSD has 50 tickets together at Galen Center for the February 23 game against Oregon State. The cost is $30 and you provide the transportation or $50 per ticket and we provide the transportation. If you can get up to LA and back for $20, good on you!

So, it's a busy January and February. Just because football is over it doesn't mean we cease being Trojans. There are 18 other teams that need our support. I look forward to seeing you at some or all of our events.

Happy New Year! Fight On! Beat the Cavaliers!

Dan Orr
President 2007-2009
