Compared to the coverage last year, I have been extremely pleased with the coverage for both football and basketball provided by ASN.

I know they have missed some things in severla broadcasts that make the diehard fan cringe, but it is great to see CUSA teams competing on this network.

One guy in particular, Mark Adams, does an absolutely great job in promoting the upcoming game with a little minute debrief of why the teams and games are compelling, and his work at halftime ranking teams from conferences that ASN covers is solid.

Tonight, he started the WKU-MU game with some comments about his father's passing and how he appreciated the kindness George Fant showed him during that time. It was touching and felt incredibly personal.

Kudos to ASN and Mark Adams for their promotion of our league and our players. You can learn more about a CUSA school in one minute on ASN than you would from a month of ESPN Sportscenter. Still work to do, but I appreciate the effort ASN is bringing to their broadcasts.

I hate asn. At least online. It seems like they never have the broadcast they say they are going to have. I'd rather have our own guys doing the game cause then I know that the fame will actually be shown when they say it will. I work out of town and can't always be home to watch the game and I rely on them showing the game they say they will online.

Every ASN broadcast I've seen (and MT has been on a bunch quite a bit) has been excellent! Best thing about them is they're not ESPN! Even the Western/Marshall game on right now has focused solely on Toppers and Herd! Not one mention of the lofty SEC, or the ACC, and no shilling for some Big Ten school that would never play one of us on a Home and Home basis in a million years!

ASN ROCKS!! SO much better than Cartel ESPN!...Mark Adams is awesome!

If Mark Adams is the old guy in the studio I can't say I'm impressed. Really weak story lines. But overall I agree it's nice having the announcers pay full attention to the teams on the floor. I really Blaine Taylor and his play by play guy. Good team.

I really like their coverage of C-USA and their acknowledgement of mid majors with their own Top 25, which doesn't include cartel schools. I love it, if UAB gets bounced frm Conference USA, I will be crushed in lieu of the nice work ASN has done showcasing the spots scene therein.
