Blue Devils backed off a piece a few years ago after they heard Bluecoats were playing it. With there being so much cross population between the SCV and BD corps, they must have known for a while. Their show announcements have the same, more a product of anniversary shows and vague, conceptual fluff, filler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a favorite story about Royer, and others arguing about the same picks well back in the '80's. As a result Vanguard changed their program mid winter. With the current licensing requirements and monies involved for that I would presume the close door, no disclosure discussion still takes place.

I do remember Jeff Fiedler bringing with him Sly Slybinski (sp) who had been Cavs visual tech guru; his first two weeks with SCV he upped their proficiency numbers tremendously. Now he occasionally judges DCI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
