I thought we didn't have any deals with ESPN?

If you will recall when the "new deal" (for two years) was done last year, ESPN agreed to carry certain games over ESPN 3 if the schools ran their own production and met ESPN's requirements.

All of our games that are not part of the package elsewhere (Stadium, CBSSN, etc.) are on ESPN3.

So why aren't ALL our games being at least televised on ESPN3 if not already being televised on the mentioned networks above??? I know for a FACT USM has the audio/visual/telecom equipment necessary if we're judging from the quality of other ESPN3 games I've seen in the past)...Seems like CUSA has had plenty of games that were not televised on any network at all...

Hold up...before this deal was signed did our commish even communicate with the ADs that an audio/visual/telecom equipment standard (set forth by ESPN) must be invested in/maintained by the schools themselves?? Otherwise why even agree to a deal like this if ALL the schools you're representing don't already have the resources/capability in place to do it???

The conference is providing some $$ for schools to upgrade production equipment.

Tech has enlisted Learfield to do their games this year. Northwestern and South Alabama were both our productions on ESPN3 and came out really really well.

That's a question for your AD.

I see at least one FIU fan in the crowd!

Didn't find a game thread but i think this thread is good as any. "Emptysue your cheer leaders are a little on the heavy side" and that's putting it delicately.

but seriously did you look at your cheerleaders

I believe in the Barney Stinson "cheerleader effect".

That said I did see one overweight, but most of them look fine to me...

Might be the swimsuits but they look much better in this picture.

Our TV "package" is impotent.

I'm wondering why only the ugly ones were topless...
