thats not true at all..and flat out wrong

half of the espn3 games are licensed locally ...espn actually encourages it, as its pure profit for espn..

houston/louisville last year was on local tv everywhere on the east coast but if you lived in houston you had to watch on espn3
heres the link to it (now deactivated, just showing you its there) http://espn.go.com/watchespn/index/_/id/...e-football

here are the highlights ( notice it says foxsports south)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuxVpKgRcW4

espn3 NEVER blacks-out content ..espn3 itself gets blacked-out in certain areas, depending on the licensing deal

the AAC/ASN deal for 10 tier3 bball games is a dual cast, asn local and espn3 national..
IMO thats the best case scenario for c-usa, is that the 25-30 ASN games are dual cast espn3 games. which is unknown at the moment

ps i dont get why you are upset..
they are worried about their teams exposure, not only for themselves but for fan growth, brand growth and accessibility for casual fans
you are telling them to drive 2 hours or pay $15 a month to listen to a radio broadcast and stop complaining.
if you cared about wku (the program) and not just yourself and your willingness to pay, this is a legitimate issue

He's just like that.

If I only cared about Western I would want to be on FOX....

Where just about ALL games were shown.

I don't care about UofL or Houston I know that SBC games are BLACKED OUT on espn3 when they were shown on CSS. I also know that espn blocked Western from letting FOX show all Western games.

I'm not mad I'm pointing out that 90% of fans in a region are happy seeing a game on TV and the 10% crying about it only wants what's best for them. If another company has the rights they can refuse espn3 from showing that game in that region....

as it should be

I'm for having as many games on TV in the region that most CUSA fans live. If that includes those games being streamed that's great. But as a former SBC member a lot of games shown on CSS was not picked up by espn3 or blocked in the region it was shown on TV because someone else owns those rights. The conference should get the most money and coverage they can. If it means 10% of your fans can't see the content...

it's better than having 90% of your content on espn3 only. Lets put it this way if espn3 could have carried a CUSA game last year...the CUSA Network would have carried the internet feed.

If someone wants to see a game they can. It might take a little effort but if you want something bad enough you make that effort. And you're wrong...

they are only worried about their self not the 90% of fans that do get to watch on TV..ME ME ME. BTW you grow your fanbase..at least those that will drive to a game, locally. Now which might luck up on a CUSA game. The one changing their TV and see it in the guild or the one surfing espn3? If you say the local fan...

you get it

im curious where you are getting this 90% number from?

the vast majority of students in college arent from the city the college is located in

just looking at the UAB report, asn aired 7 of the 12 uab games in 2014...all 7 were in Birmingham, AL but no where else in alabama, nowhere in the neighboring state of Mississippi or Georgia..and just 3 were picked up in Nashville

so you are saying 90% of uab fans live in Birmingham (answer is thats not true)

but im starting to see where your bias comes from..WKU was good in football so all of your games were picked by fox.. if wku has an offyear you'll see that asn only airs in 3 cities in kentucky and the difficulties of finding a game..and i doubt all 3 pick up wku games

if conference digital networks were a good alternative to ESPN3, the sunbelt who has a digital network wouldnt have celebrated so much in their encompassing espn3 deal (where sunbelt still has to pay for the production)..in 2013 the MWC put 20-30 games on their digital network in 2014 they were desperate to put half of those on espn3
the AAC specifically negotiated to have a huge portion of our womens bball on espn3..despite having a fully functional aac digital network

you think its 90% happy, 10% complaining.. when in reality its closer to 30% happy, 40% casual fans who don't care enough to look hard for it and watch something else, 20% die hards who are complaining they can't see their favorite teams 10% cord cutters who are mad their isn't an online option and/or "free" stream (they aren't made for asn)

for a price


If you are too cheap to pay the $15 (honestly don't know the cost) a month....that's on you. But make no mistake about it...no one is flipping through espn3 many listing and taking the 2 minutes or so to it takes to go from one game to another.

Nope people watching on espn3 are fans of that team or conference

Some people will b*tch and whine about everything. Don't be such a cheapass and you can watch any game you want.


JUST WIN!


I had CUSA Digital Network. Very few Marshall games were on there.

When it actually worked, it was the same exact feed as firstrow but didn't have to worry about the ads. I kept the network to help the conference even though I watched most of the games through a pirated site because it was more clear.

For me, I'm not excited about ESPN3 hoping other people go and watch it. I'm hoping for ESPN3 because I know I can watch it, right through my xbox.


Also, stop trying to be a prick all the time. You sound like a douche.

Stop whining and b*tching on every post....

90% of your post are complaining about one thing or another. Enjoy what you do get and have. Don't always worry about what others have. Sound like a neighbor that is always complaining about what he doesn't have. I try to avoid him at all cost, now. At one time I tried to explain to him...

you have a wife that seems to love you (even with your constant complaining)has your supper on the table with in 30 minutes of you getting home. Two kids that are great in school, and as far as I know hasn't been in any trouble...that seems to love you (despite your constant complaining) and you go fishing or play golf 3 times a week. And a good paying job.

Can't enjoy that...has to complain about others and what they got and do.

Not all basketball games are picked up by espn3. If the school is only sending out the video board feed and not producing the game they will not be picked up by espn3 ....if CUSA goes that route.



I stopped reading after about 2 sentences.

Whatever makes you feel better about yourself.

If you are too cheap to pay the $15 (honestly don't know the cost) a month....that's on you.

Multiple schools (including ODU) are not a part of the CUSA Digital Network so it's really $15 * 4 or 5 a month to see everything (not counting ASN's lack of streaming). ESPN3 is paid for by your ISP.

I just went to CUSA/college sports live and counted 10 ODU conference games still up on that site for viewing. I think it's safe to say the other 8 were on TV in the homes 90% of ODU fans. One of the ODU games (not counted in the 10) is listed as 'listen' that is the gave @Western. I know for a fact all Western home conference games are on a TV channel. So again 90% of ODU fans could have seen that game on TV.

Not all SBC basketball games are carried by espn3 so why do people think that all CUSA games will be on espn3?

I understand all fans want to see every game but that's really not possible unless your school produces the games. And if we want any TV money some games will be shown on TV and the TV feed is protected. Every ODU game not shown on the CUSA Network had a 'listen' button by it. We can't get everything we ALL want. Be happy that the game is being shown to MOST ODU fans

I stopped on 12/30/2015 conference play so I don't know if any other ODU games are there....OOC

Are you including basketball in this? If so 10 games is an absolute joke.

Here's a link: http://www.odusports.com/SportSelect.dbm...EASON=2015

Any of those games you see that have ASN on it? Those were not streamed by the C-USA digital network. That's 9/12 games. ODU @ WKU and vs UTEP were on Fox regional channels, so 11/12 games were not streamed by the C-USA DN.

So 1/12 football games were available for an online stream via a crappy $12 FIU stream.

10 of ODU's basketball games were televised via ASN, and those were not streamed online.

And even IF your area got ASN, many times the channel in areas like Richmond and DC, which have high levels of ODU fans/alumni, didn't pick up the ODU game. So a lot of ODU fans had NO ACCESS TO THE GAME.

Please, just shut up. You have no idea what you're talking about and you only continue to make yourself look an absolute ass.

Conference meetings are next week beginning Monday. Hopefully we will get a tv schedule by Wednesday, the last day for the AD's meeting. Be nice if we don't have to wait until June 6th when the presidents meet to give their blessings on whatever is going on with the tv contracts. Would also be nice to finally find out where next seasons basketball tournament will be.

Last year the preliminary fb tv schedule was announced June 1st followed by the ASN schedule announced on June 15th. The basketball tournament was announced as returning to Birmingham on June 12th.

Quote: ASN will televise 15 football games, beIN Sports 10, the CBS Sports Network 6 and ESPN 5, sources said.

Quote: Rights fees paid to the league are expected to drop significantly from the $14 million per year guaranteed by Fox and CBS Sports five years ago to perhaps $5 million. Media outlets report that CBS Sports rights fees dropped from $7 million to $1 million.

Looks like a lot of ESPN3, but that part may not be announced today.

Quote:ESPN will send consultants to all 14 C-USA schools to, as one official said, "coach all of us up" on how bring their production levels up to ESPN standards. The schools will be expected to pay production costs.

I heard last night that BeIn Sports is going to have some CUSA games. I'm very happy with this since I have BeIn Sports on sling tv which can be had for about 25 bucks a month.

I may have missed this ... but is there anything in the new deal to ensure that the ASN games will be available to all (e.g. consistent streaming?).

It's humorous to me how they try to make it sound great that it's the first time our basketball championship will be CBS Sports Network. This sucks. It used to be on CBS.

We don't know yet, but it's probably a virtual lock ESPN3 will simulcast those as they have done in the AAC, MAC, and A10.

That was my assumption as well but I didn't see a reference to it in any of the articles (although in fairness there was not reporting of any of the ESPN3 content, so maybe that's the issue).

Just saw that all Marshall games are on Saturday this year. All 12 in a row with no bye games after the first week. So if you're playing us count that as a Saturday game, home or away. That's pretty awesome. Now I just have to hope they aren't at noon or earlier.

We don't know yet, but it's probably a virtual lock ESPN3 will simulcast those as they have done in the AAC, MAC, and A10.

My understanding is that the games ASN had from those conferences were subcontracted from ESPN and were available to ASN in limited markets to broadcast. The ODU game last year at EMU was the only ASN game not shown in Roanoke last year. It was available in Michigan, parts of Ohio and Norfolk but I could stream it through ESPN3. I don't know that this will be the same deal. ASN has several 24 hour stations now so they'll need content. If they're broadcasting the game on their stations across the country they won't want people to be able to get the game on ESPN3. At least in those markets. There could be some blackouts in effect or those games might not be available online unless ASN gets thier own streaming. The announcements said all other games not shown on TV would be available on ESPN3, whether that includes the ASN games I don't know. CBS and bein have their own streaming platforms. We will see.

thats not true at all..and flat out wrong

half of the espn3 games are licensed locally ...espn actually encourages it, as its pure profit for espn..

houston/louisville last year was on local tv everywhere on the east coast but if you lived in houston you had to watch on espn3
heres the link to it (now deactivated, just showing you its there) http://espn.go.com/watchespn/index/_/id/...e-football

here are the highlights ( notice it says foxsports south)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuxVpKgRcW4

espn3 NEVER blacks-out content ..espn3 itself gets blacked-out in certain areas, depending on the licensing deal

the AAC/ASN deal for 10 tier3 bball games is a dual cast, asn local and espn3 national..
IMO thats the best case scenario for c-usa, is that the 25-30 ASN games are dual cast espn3 games. which is unknown at the moment

ps i dont get why you are upset..
they are worried about their teams exposure, not only for themselves but for fan growth, brand growth and accessibility for casual fans
you are telling them to drive 2 hours or pay $15 a month to listen to a radio broadcast and stop complaining.
if you cared about wku (the program) and not just yourself and your willingness to pay, this is a legitimate issue

If I only cared about Western I would want to be on FOX....

Where just about ALL games were shown.

I don't care about UofL or Houston I know that SBC games are BLACKED OUT on espn3 when they were shown on CSS. I also know that espn blocked Western from letting FOX show all Western games.

I'm not mad I'm pointing out that 90% of fans in a region are happy seeing a game on TV and the 10% crying about it only wants what's best for them. If another company has the rights they can refuse espn3 from showing that game in that region....

as it should be

I'm for having as many games on TV in the region that most CUSA fans live. If that includes those games being streamed that's great. But as a former SBC member a lot of games shown on CSS was not picked up by espn3 or blocked in the region it was shown on TV because someone else owns those rights. The conference should get the most money and coverage they can. If it means 10% of your fans can't see the content...

it's better than having 90% of your content on espn3 only. Lets put it this way if espn3 could have carried a CUSA game last year...the CUSA Network would have carried the internet feed.

If someone wants to see a game they can. It might take a little effort but if you want something bad enough you make that effort. And you're wrong...

they are only worried about their self not the 90% of fans that do get to watch on TV..ME ME ME

im curious where you are getting this 90% number from?

the vast majority of students in college arent from the city the college is located in

just looking at the UAB report, asn aired 7 of the 12 uab games in 2014...all 7 were in Birmingham, AL but no where else in alabama, nowhere in the neighboring state of Mississippi or Georgia..and just 3 were picked up in Nashville

so you are saying 90% of uab fans live in Birmingham (answer is thats not true)

but im starting to see where your bias comes from..WKU was good in football so all of your games were picked by fox.. if wku has an offyear you'll see that asn only airs in 3 cities in kentucky and the difficulties of finding a game..and i doubt all 3 pick up wku games

if conference digital networks were a good alternative to ESPN3, the sunbelt who has a digital network wouldnt have celebrated so much in their encompassing espn3 deal (where sunbelt still has to pay for the production)..in 2013 the MWC put 20-30 games on their digital network in 2014 they were desperate to put half of those on espn3
the AAC specifically negotiated to have a huge portion of our womens bball on espn3..despite having a fully functional aac digital network

you think its 90% happy, 10% complaining.. when in reality its closer to 30% happy, 40% casual fans who don't care enough to look hard for it and watch something else, 20% die hards who are complaining they can't see their favorite teams 10% cord cutters who are mad their isn't an online option and/or "free" stream (they aren't made for asn)


He makes things up, is condescending, and thinks he's a genius.

As soon as someone calls him out on all his BS, he mysteriously leaves on a long fishing trip without service to respond.

Don't waste your time.

Don't need to make anything up and if using common sense makes a person a genius....

call me one

BTW, I'm on one of those long fishing/beach trips and that's why I didn't respond...

haven't caught much but we did get to see a 12 foot shark swim right beside us.

What ever I do doesn't change the fact you ***** and whine about something 90% of the time.

pesik the 90% is only a guess but a good one that close to 90% of all of our fans lives in local or surround cities. But that still doesn't change the fact of what I said is true just as espn said....

if fans want to see their team streamed on a good feed that school much PRODUCE that feed. The scoreboard feed is not something espn will pickup. And if a feed was available to be shown the CUSA would have shown it. As a matter of fact the CUSA network showed a lot of feeds espn would never put on espn3. Again as I pointed out....

if someone else has the rights they are not going to give those rights away for free. So a ODU game being PRODUCED by a TV station is not going to give that feed away and cut into it's possible viewers. As I said above...it doesn't need a genius to figure that out...

COMMON SENSE is good enough

Also I could care less if all of Western's games were shown on TV last year...I was at them all. So FlyHawk98' not only do I go on long fishing trips....I follow my team. If I enjoy something I find a way to see or do the things I enjoy . I don't ***** and whine about things like that

RE: TV DEAL: (not official yet) ESPN/CBS/ASN/BeIN Sports
If you were watching the last baseball game with Marshall and fiu, the guy doing play by play was our media relations director. During the 8th he read a blurb annoucning a new conference website coming this fall. He also mentioned something called CUSA.TV. Could we be getting everything streamed into one place or are we replacing the old cbs site where we keep the money?

cusa.tv was registered on April 19th to a CUSA official.

We used to have charlotte49ers.tv. It was just a place for highlights. Hopefully CUSA.TV is more than that.
