Drexel BB Virtual Season Ticket (FloSports Subscription Info)
https://drexeltickets.universitytickets....ea119a12ee
As most of you probably know, Drexel is offering a virtual season ticket option.
Blue Package for $25 (+$5 shipping) includes various goodies like a season ticket gift, T-shirt, and other little offers.
The Gold Package for $75 includes everything from the Blue package plus a CAA FloSports membership and access to view the warmups and post game press conference.
One important note about the FloSports Membership. It only includes actual CAA games that start in January. I assume it also includes the CAA Tournaments, yet not confirmed.
The package does NOT include access to any November/December Drexel games.
So missing from the package is the Drexel/Penn State game on BTN+ via FloSports, Drexel's game(s) at Mohegan Sun. And any other Drexel home games in December. As of now there are only 2 confirmed home games for Drexel MBB and none for WBB. The Drexel/LaSalle game and the Drexel/SJU MBB games will both air on NBCSP or NBCSP+.

3 months for 75 bucks still seems high. CAA basketball is not worth $25 per month. Yes I saw the other adders, which are nice, but many dont care so much about interviews or watching practices. The tshirt isnt a game changer for most, either. Its still a tough sell at $75

I didn't initially mention it because it's no longer available, but they had a special for the first 50 members to get the gold package for $50 + $5 shipping. That offer sold out. So there was at least enough interest at the $50 rate.
The season ticket gifts are sometimes rather nice. Two years ago, they gave out 1/4 zip Nike sweatshirts that would probably sell for about $50. Both packages come with a season ticket gift, but I'm not sure if they're going to go that nice this year since they'll have no ticket revenue.

It doesn't make sense that they wouldn't include the LaSalle/St. Joes (and Siena if that is a go) if they are going to include the tournament. As of now the tournament is scheduled for March 6-9; so if you're going to include another month why not start on Dec 12th (the day of the LaSalle game)?
Last year only the first two rounds were on FloHoops though with the semi-finals and final on the CBS sport channel. So I can see why they would hesitate in including it since hopefully we'll have a first-round bye and it would just be a single game.
I suppose the way to supplement the season ticket plan would be to buy a month starting on Nov 25 hoping the BTN+ game will be on. You would then get the four potential home games (LaSalle, St. Joes, and Coppin State and Siena if those happen) as well as the Quinnipiac game. According to Timer's post, Sienna would be on Dec. 22, so they would all fit in a month. Then come March decide if you want to spring $12.50 for the tournament game(s).

Yeah, it is really stupid and a little deceptive. I only found out today by contacting the ticket office as I wanted my subscription before the Penn State game. Flo really sucks when it comes to customer service, and I hope that the CAA is aware of this when it comes to renewal time. They didn't even think to offer a credit for my annual subscription from last year despite the spring and fall seasons being cancelled.
My annual subscription automatically renewed before I realized it. I did convince them to give me a refund of the annual fee, and they charged me about $12 for another month instead of for the whole year. That actually works out better for me, as my subscription was extended until mid December. That give me the chance to watch the PSU and Q games. Then the SJU and LaSalle games are on local TV. So I probably won't end up missing any games.

they should push the whole thing back to the spring. the caa's football schedule starts in march and that might end up looking like the best move of any conference in the country. i'll go down for delaware football games.
i bought the $25 season ticket plan. mostly just curious what i'll end up with. i already have flo for sprint car racing. it's becoming the best package for dirt track racing in particular. we can sit at home and watch all our local racing on a saturday night.

I don't disagree with you about moving CBB to the Spring, but it's not going to happen so no use wishing for the impossible. I'd be fine watching June Madness, but the logistics of putting together a college basketball schedule is next to impossible as it is. Then figure that you're dealing with 32 separate entities and 350+ schools. I think when you factor all of that in, I guess we should be happy that there's even going to be a season.
