BSC officials, why can't you...................

[mtgrizrule]

get some air time for BSC basketball? Seriously, has anyone seen the Friday night college basketball schedule? The national schedule is pathetic nationally. The BSC now plays conference games on Friday's. There is a huge opening for some air time for Friday's to have some aired games on ESPN (even espsn full court) and Regional Fox Sports Networks. Check out the link for schedules and go through every Friday schedule. Can someone rationalize why the BSC cannot try taking advantage of so little competition to get some sort of Friday Night Package? After reviewing the schedule I see a door open for the Big Sky conference to get some televised national games or even regional games.

This is really disappointing to me. Can we please get a competent commissioner and league officials that would have the ability to take advantage of something like this for January and February conference Friday Night Televised games? One would think with ESPN, II, ESPNU, espn fullcourt, and regional Fox Sports Network we could some sort of package out. I am going to post this on other sites too. Feedback please!

I thought you were talking about the on-the-court officials. And I thought this was a new version of a Mad Libs game. And I was going to complete your statement:

"BSC officials, why can't you......... bring back Eric Curry?"

Just a thought.

Airtime of any kind would be nice for BSC fans. No one I know in AZ has Altitude Network so I can't even get the once a week Big Sky game anymore. It's bigskytv.org or nothing now as the radio network that used to cover LUmberjacks games in the Phoenix metro area dropped their coverage this season.

Big ESPN or ESPN 2 will never go for broadcasting Big Sky games other than the conference championship. The money just isn't there. Maybe ESPNU? Haven't used Fullcourt so don't know what it entails. ESPN360 would be my vote so I could watch on the internet.

But an occasional game on Fox Sports would certainly be nice. 4-5 or so Lumberjack games have been picked up on Fox Sports AZ this season and it' a welcome change from the past when the only televised game was the annual U of Arizona game and the tournament championship game. Fox Sports tape delays a few of them but coverage of any kind is welcome. Fox Sports AZ even broadcast an NAU womens game a few weeks back. The only games on tv the 3 years I lived in Montana was the Cat-Griz game. Considering the state doesn't have local pro sports as competition, that was pretty sad.

I wish you well in your endeavour, mtgrizrule.
