Game is scheduled for CBS Sports Network. Same as last game. Anyone know if our games being on real television (not ESPN+) is a sign that we are getting more recognition? Or, are these scheduled in advance? Sorry if a dumb question.
Nice. I got a 2-week free trial for Youtube TV to get CBS Sports so having back-to-back games there is convenient
Youtube TV is real nice
*used to be real nice

Youtube TV exploited their legacy customers. I signed up originally when it first came out. Believe I was paying $45 a month and got everything I ever wanted out of my TV provider. They promised that they were different than all cable companies...LOL way too good to be true.

Fast forward a couple years and now I'm paying $65 and they have gotten rid of Bally Sports (formerly known as Fox Sports Ohio) which is why I made the switch from Spectrum. Now I have to stream Bally Sports to watch Tribe/Cavs games using a friends DirectTv account.

They are constantly in renewal disputes with outlets and they play hardball by threatening to remove the channel completely until they come to an agreement.

Yeah I definitely understand that. I was kinda mad about the Bally Sports dispute since I'm a Reds fan but I think it helped my state of mind not to watch them lol

I've been telling myself for about a year now that I'm going to switch back to Spectrum but haven't gone through the hassle yet.

A good test tonight being the first MAC Convo game after a stellar victory over a top peer. Kent is another competitive peer.

No let-up or looking at the records and seeing the predicted top MAC peer with losses vs Miami and Akron and thinking this early that yOU are in the drivers seat.

Many games to go and taking them one at a time there should be high effort, protecting the ball while having good movement, hold yOUr own on the boards and play the defense we have now come to expect.

Go BOBCATS, stop the Flashes.

There's a new player for us I don't recognize.

I don't see either of the Brown brothers in warmups.

Arkley saying this evening Frazier expected to join roster next week with the start of new semester. New guy tonight is walk-on former manager.

Per Arkley Twitter the new addition to the bench is walk on and former manager Josh McDaniel. But he agreed Frazier should join the roster when the semester starts.

Edit: But I’m not there so I don’t doubt you guys

10/10 free throws so far, Vander Plas going off, and the defense is dominating again.

I am once again stating how good Mark Sears is.

If he does this the rest of the year he should be an All-American.

Have to find someone who can give us minutes off the bench moving forward. This is not sustainable.

My first thought as well. We’ll need to figure out how to close out games.

Now I think we’ve got it. But it’s been little exciting for my taste between this game and Akron. It’s nice to see that we’re not completely falling apart and bounce back.

Better than the last few years when they would stumble down the stretch and not recover.

TV broadcast said this is ohios best start since 2011-2012

Any chance Lukas Frazier plays a decent bit for us through the end of the year?

I could see him playing, as our guard position is lacking depth. He could fill in for Miles until he gets out of COVID protocol. I’m interested to see how he is.

“Bend don’t break” seems to be the saying we are living up to this year. Sears and BVP were studs tonight, Roderick appears to be coming out of his slump and Sears: give that man MAC POTY

Great win... (Aren't they all!) Was a bit worried after Carry was fouled on the inbound on one possession and then, fouled him again while shooting a 3... Yikes! Some lessons to be learned there.

With Lukas, gotta think it's a plus having Coach Boals see him directly, giving him a good feel if he can help immediately. Eliminate some uncertainty.

Go Bobcats!
