ESPN3 question for football - MercerFan - 07-18-2014 10:09 AM

There's the link to the SoCon TV Schedule. I was under the impression that ALL Mercer home football games would be on ESPN3? Maybe I was wrong about that. Either way, we're taking steps in the right direction!

Per the Executive Director of the Mercer Athletic Foundation yesterday...after the SoCon TV package was announced...

All of Mercer's Home Football and Basketball games will be broadcast on ESPN3. Some of them may be produced by the SoCon (as this year's Football game with Furman will be) and the rest will be self-produced by Mercer. I'm not exactly sure what will happen if a non-ESPN3 provider, say CBS, wants to do a Mercer game, but regardless (for Mercer fans), the home games will be broadcast on ESPN3 and/or elsewhere in that case.
