Re: Game 1 (2017) Hawaii

I think what some people are missing here is that we might actually get to make some money this year with our broadcast. Sounds like Eleven Sports might be paying us something for our games and we'll also be able to sell our stream of the games for a fee. I know we'd love to have every game on one o...

Re: New UMass coach Matt McCall

Excellent read for all of us UMass hoops fans. The season can't get here too soon! Looks like he's running into some opposition on the team wearing the same hoops shoes. I hope that doesn't turn into a real problem for the staff as they move forward. :shock: Yeah a big problem.........after much co...

Re: Shatar McClay

^ I was thinking the same thing. That's his committed to Tennessee grade. Now he'll get his committed to UMass grade. It's such a stupid system. But honestly, how could anyone possibly run a website that accurately ranks all these high school players. It's impossible.

Re: Football Broadcasting/Distribution

^ If the deal is with Eleven Sports I don't think you'll see it on any other cable networks. I could be wrong but I think the only other way you'll be able to have access is via streaming on our website. But this is just a guess on my part and once we hear an official announcement I'm sure it will b...

Re: Football Broadcasting/Distribution

Also good to note that the Big Sky and Ivy retained streaming internet rights to the games. So we might still have the ability to sell the stream of our games as well as the TV broadcast deal.

Optimum (Altice) just got rid of this channel after a dispute with the new owners about fees.

Re: Shatar McClay

Rsox confirmed on twitter that McClay is officially committed now. Great pickup. Watched his highlight tape and was impressed with his ability to get off blocks and great angles to make tackles.

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits

I can't lie, I thought the plan all along was to give DK one more year. Figured the administration anticipated a rough season with all the young guys and was ready to give him two years with them to prove whether or not he could get it done with the new crop.

I was totally wrong.

Re: Champions Center practice facility

Interesting to note that in some of the addendum documents regarding the new digital images, graphics and signage that will be going up, the school has specifically told contractors not to use any old images that show the "Redmen" logo. So don't expect to see any of those old photos used.

Re: Game 2 (2017) Coastal Carolina

I've posted on twitter and 247 and surprisingly caught some heat for this but if we lose to coastal Carolina that's a complete joke. I'll go as far as to say football has no chance of surviving at this school if we can't win that game. You can say I'm going overboard but if we lose that game intere...

Re: 2017 Season

UM just had a big PR push with the release of single game tickets and the new "Game Experience". But they also build a wall that keeps people from actually purchasing said tickets.......how can someone make a decision to attend a game that can have a kick-off that can be anywhere from Noo...

Re: Game 1 (2017) Hawaii

I could be wrong, but I took Bamford's comments the other day to mean that our games would be produced in-house and broadcast on our digital network. Don't think you're going to see our home games on cable TV this year.

Well, it is Jack Leaman Court. Someone could probably debate that he should be the 4th.
