Looks like the COVID shuffle.

Take this game and put it here, that game and put it there.

Get used to it. It'll probably be like this all season long.

This change is welcomed from my vantage point.
We needed a home game and not have as much time between the Akron and Ball State games.
Like the Akron game BG will also be a formidable opponent.

Looking like no EPSN+ for this game or Saturday's v. Ball St. If ever there was a time during the ESPN+ generation for games to be broadcasted it is the 2020-21 season, no?

Are you saying that only because Webcast is still TBD in this thread? Isn't there a directive that all conference games get streamed through ESPN?

Ball State will be on CBSSN

Due to the late addition, the holiday closure and lack of available students on campus to help out, the game will not be streamed.

Put a still camera In section 412 and leave it. Dang. Top two teams in poll and cannot even get a webcast.

High schools also own their own rights without any other obligations until tournaments. That is until they join the NFHS Network (some of you will love that prescription service), then they lose those rights as well.

Every MAC game for the next week that isn't on CBSSN is being picked up by ESPN3 or ESPN+ with the exception of games from Athens.

I get no students on campus to man the lifeboats. Wouldn’t it have been possible to hire some outside contractor types to fill in? It’s not like we are trying to produce a broadway musical.

This has been my point for years (right, BTC?). Seems Ohio is the only MAC school unable to work around the lack of students on campus during break.

Is it just that there are no camera operators or do they also need people in the control room/truck? Can't they just stream part of the feed that the refs will use for reviews and synchronize Russ's radio feed?

I'm not sold on BG at all. They're pretenders, they never win anything important. Best team in the MAC? Not even close. Tomorrow you'll see who the best team in the MAC is.

It has been your point for years, and as a fan, I believe it’s a valid point.

Replay in these cases is not what it’s supposed to be either. Regardless of the sport, replay uses the same cameras a broadcast uses.

Hey he got the BG football game right, so he's at least sporting a Glass Joe record of 1-99.

I want to start seeing a more aggressive Vander Plas early in the game. Through seven games, he has taken almost twice as many 3s this year as he did to this point last year, but so far only shooting around 28%. He's really efficient from inside the arc, so more drives and postups, pls.

God forbid the College of Communications facility step in and provide the manpower and resources. Yet probably as we know, those who can't do... teach --- and / or feel such effort would be beneath them.
