-how much time, effort and $$$$ would be involved by the ADept to stream this? don't need announcers, just a camera, don't need replays, and I bet some folks that can't make it would use it, seems  a minor league decision not to do it

On the flip side, you don't want to really cheapen the look of your internet streaming product. It was a terrible look for VCU to not have a PBP person for their game vs SLU Soccer a few weeks ago. My guess(and it is a guess) is that time/effort/money is not the main reason.

I’m SO Excited!
I  almost started a thread this morning but was afraid of not exceeding expectations and grief from all of the MBMs on name title choice- which would have simply been:

It would be a free stream for an exhibition game -- who is judging/dumping on the quality of that (outside of a few MBMs). Especially if it was something made available last minute.

Are we not remembering how many people were angry that we didn’t announce a big East invite when there was no indication that was what it would be? There will always be people complaining.

Right but as always fu@k those people if I get to watch a grainy Billikens feed for 2 hours. Think about me

What are we thinking?

YC, GJ, JN, JP, FO

YC, JP, JN and FO seem very likely - I think the 5th spot will fluctuate throughout the season based on recent performances and match-ups with four viable candidates - TH, FT, GJ and RW (who I don't think is getting talked about enough as a potential valuable contributor).

How many times is the same question going to be asked?

The more times its asked the more times they'll realize a program that wants to be top tier needs to stream every game. Regardless of whether or not it's an exhibition. Quite honestly it's unacceptable in my eyes.

I don't think this is as uncommon as you are making it out to be among big programs. It's not ideal and I'd like them to stream it but it's not an indication of program stature aspirations or lack thereof IMO.

Xavier's schedule doesn't have TV listed for their exhibition against Ferris State on November 5: https://goxavier.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule

Ditto Marquette's exhibition vs Bowie State on Nov 4: https://gomarquette.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2021-22 and DePaul's exhibition vs Montevallo: https://depaulbluedemons.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule

Dayton lists radio, but no TV for their exhibition vs Cedarville on Nov 1: https://daytonflyers.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2021-22

Gonzaga DOES have TV listed for their 2 exhibitions: https://gozags.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2021-22

Creighton's exhibition is on FloHoops: https://gocreighton.com/sports/mens-basketball/schedule/2021-22

I'd prefer it gets streamed and I think it is fair to ask about it, but it's hardly unacceptable to stream an exhibition game.

I was literally checking all of those as you replied. That's kind of funny. Creighton and Xavier being the first two I checked. I may have overreacted. But just like @Pistol said on the podcast. I'd much rather have any sort of feed. I can't make it tonight due to a work event but I'd be able to watch a youtube stream pretty easily.

As I said earlier, I think we are limiting the ease of film for our early and important OOC games. Everyone shares film a week or so before games but right now is a really easy time to put a video coordinator or some other staff member on exhibition game scout. Not streaming sucks for us, but I think it benefits SLU. Would much rather a GA or video coordinator start the scout week of rather than 3 weeks in advance.

Lol.  Great minds...

Don't get me wrong, I'd love love love a stream of the game, but think it's understandable that there isn't one.  I'm actually a little more shocked that there is no radio for the exhibition.  Feels like we have had radio for exhibitions in the past, but I could very well be misremembering.

I agree with you and Pistol that just video would be fine. I tend to try to offer perspective especially when it comes to social media and gameday operations because I had experience in meetings where this kind of sh!t was discussed.

You can actually watch every team's film at any time. i'm blanking on the computer program but I believe every team in the country uploads all game film

What it seems like is an attempt to save every penny they can. I assume the ticket sales did not go well this year?

Synergy and Second Spectrum both do.

You won’t be able to watch live though.

-do tonight's stats count?

Note: Exhibitions and/or scrimmages will not count toward NCAA statistics or coaching records.
The designation of the contest (regular season vs. exhibition/scrimmage) must be declared
before the competition date.
