Of course they did...They really have their finger on the pulse of Ohio football...

I told you in the "days leading up to the game"  There you have it.  But I am sure that is not enough for you, as you want a full time beat writer covering the CATS.

Not at all.  All we'd like to see is one positive article that doesn't have a plug for O$U in the same column.  The only time you see them writing an article that is solely about us is when it's negative.  That's all I'd like to see is just one positive article where we are the only ones mentioned every once in a while.

I agree that the columbus dispatch tries to put down OHIO or any MAC TEAM.  They don't want another OHIO  TEAM to share the spotlight with their beloved buckeyes.  I live in central Ohio and will never take their paper for that reason.
610 A.M. radio is even worse than the dispatch.  They really put the MAC Conferance teams down - especially if earl bruce is on - he may be the worse.  Listen to 97.1 FM - nit 610 A.M. for sports unless you're a buckeye lover.
GO BOBCATS!

It's interesting to hear that nothing changes in central Ohio.

Remember, Ohio University, as well as its regional presence, is in the Columbus TV and radio coverage area, as well as the Dispatch's daily circulation area. Thus it is logical to expect that the Columbus media should treat Ohio University as local coverage. And that does not mean equal coverage as tosu. No one expects that. But there is a long way to go from the current tosu coverage versus OU coverage of 99.5% to 0.5%.

There should be regular and consistent coverage of Ohio athletics. Athens is only 75 miles from downtown Columbus. In most other parts of the country that distance is "just up the road" and a major media outlet would always consider a D1 school that close as a local.
