Wasn’t one of the main points of independence to have better TV access?

Home team has always determined TV. Has nothing to do w/independence.

Has to do with poor contract negotiations. Should have been a negotiation point

If UMass a aleady has a contract w/a provider, it's not so simple.

That's when Tom should have decided that the games wouldn't happen, certainly not H/H.

Few contract negotiations are, but things such as TV coverage are worth it.

Yup. This is what we get for playing such a lousy, low-budget team on the road

That’s why we should never schedule UMass again

Would we be playing UMASS in November of we were still a MWC member?

Did you miss all the games on ESPN and ABC this year?

WJCougar

I expect to be able to watch every game

Loosen up the purse strings and pay the $4.99 or $20. Unless...

CougarBuddy

How? Every single game has been available to watch.

You're right - these pay per view streaming options are fantastic

BYU Fan

11/18/19 8:08am

you're "old fashioned" but in the past very few away games were broadcast at all

The mtn distribution was a disaster

BYU Fan

11/18/19 8:30am

Then pay more and get the directtv option...

CougarBuddy

11/18/19 8:35am

I'm not convinced that the DirecTV option is going to work

BYU Fan

11/18/19 8:43am

ABC and ESPN did not happen during the mtn contract. People seem to forget that

mwcoug

11/18/19 8:12am

The only way to do that is not schedule Toledo and UMass.

WJCougar

11/18/19 6:41pm

someone at BYU must have screwed up their contract with UMass

The Shazad

BYU doesn't control media rights for away games.

hydrocoug

11/18/19 7:42am

It’s one game

mudpupper

11/18/19 7:43am

Agreed. We have had amazing access to BYU games for the most part for the last 8+ years since we left the mtn. No

ESPN+ is great and worth the money.

molodyets

11/18/19 7:43am

Genuinely curious. What do you use ESPN+ for mostly?

rainorsnow

11/18/19 8:27am

The original series are great. 30 for 30s are great. Lots of rugby is great.

molodyets

11/18/19 8:28am

I haven’t gotten it yet, but I think that’s probably what I’d watch if I had it

rainorsnow

Soccer — EURO 2020 qualifying matches are all on there.

BlueK

ESPN+ seems like a great option for a 3rd monitor while working from home

Ok boomer.

As the President of the AAC fan club, what are your thoughts on ESPN+?

BYU Fan

11/18/19 9:28am

Hasn't been a problem for any Houston games this year, so I am good to go 😉
