Is that quote supposed to be attributed to me?

Actually, they did. It appears that all of our home games will be on there all season (unless this was a random one-off game).

There’s zero evidence to back up flo somehow impacting this but why not, throw the tin foil hat on. Some folks may be disappointed it isn’t the disaster they were hoping it would be. They must have a ton of Disney stock.

Yeah, I guess I could see the confusion about the topic of getting "blacked out" applying to Dirty. 04-cheers

Hahaha I behaved this game - had to drive the girls home.

RE: Game Blacked Out
Per a tweet from Kevin Warner, the game was erroneously blacked out in other markets that were out of market access to NBC Sports Washington.

This past week, it was due to an error resulting from the fact that FloSports had the JMU game in a non-exclusive capacity. Someone along the way told out of market distributors to black it out.

Dang, 1-0 Flo Sports conspiracy theorists. Toast to 2Buck. Fighting the good fight.

RE: Game Blacked Out
One thing that does suck about the Flo agreement is out of market TV coverage isn't allowed for the Flo "exclusive" games. Thank goodness that is only Morgan St and Villanova this year. Very glad we were able to minimize that. Our non-exclusive games are still available to Flo to rebroadcast.

For this week against Morgan St, the DirecTV blackout will be legit, and for out of region folks Flo will be the ONLY option, no madizone or RSN.

RE: Game Blacked Out
I don't recall an out-of-market blackout of the RSNs being part of what was originally announced when the FloSports deal was announced. I thought the exclusivity was only for streaming options. Maybe I'm mis-remembering.

It's interesting that they never announced it but will be putting all JMU home games on Flo anyways, but only the announced 2 will be exclusive.

A big point that many tried to contest at the time and felt ESPN wasn't really playing hard ball with CAA since they let league X Y and Z still have TV rights.

"A great aspect of the FloSports agreement is the retention of linear rights, so that institutions like JMU can pursue local TV broadcasting. Keep in mind that during league negotiations, this separated FloSports from other media rights potential partners who would have required relinquishing all TV rights."

RE: Game Blacked Out
As it turns out, the blackout on Saturday was a mistake. There are two games that Flo has exclusive rights to, Morgan State and Villanova. So, hopefully, this will be rectified in the future.

By the way, it's just one game, but the historically worst production from URI was very good this week. They've got lights, they've got an artificial turf. They appear to be big time now. 03-lmfao

It looks like Stony Brook and Villanova may be tied for worst productions.

Curious - do you see us more like UMass and New Mexico State or App State?
