SLUDrew Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 There are some low budget commercials running on Charter right now saying the Billikens are coming. The commercial mentions the SIUC game will be the first game televised but I don't know beyond that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Major Majerus Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I thought it was fun; like the low budget horror flicks from my youth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBand Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Still consider Charter "cable access" but its better than nothing I guess. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE November 15, 2005 Contact: Doug McIlhagga CCIN TELECASTS SLU MEN’S AND WOMEN’S HOOPS ST. LOUIS–Charter Communications and the Saint Louis University department of athletics today announced their live telecast schedule for men’s and women’s basketball. Charter Communications Information Network (CCIN) will feature nine men’s road games and five home dates. CCIN will also produce two women’s games from the Bauman-Eberhardt Center on campus. “Charter Communications is an outstanding partner in bringing Billiken basketball to our fans,†said director of athletics Cheryl L. Levick. “Combining Charter’s telecasts with our Atlantic 10 syndication package, we’re bringing 17 regular season men’s games into the metropolitan St. Louis market. The exposure for Coach Shimmy Gray’s women’s program is also important as we build a solid base of support for her program.†The schedule begins with the Billikens hosting Southern Illinois on Wed., Nov. 30. Except for the Hawai‘i and Oakland games, all of the Billikens’ road contests will be televised. CCIN will produce the UW-Milwaukee, Mississippi, George Washington, Richmond, Xavier (Jan. 22), Rhode Island (Feb. 1), Duquesne, Charlotte and La Salle games. Play-by-play announcer Frank Cusumano enters his fifth season describing the action for CCIN. Former Billiken Hall of Famers Scott Highmark and Joe Wiley supply the analysis. The A-10 men’s network will produce the Massachusetts game from the St. Charles Family Arena on Jan. 14, the Bills’ date at Dayton on Feb. 11 and the Rhode Island game from Savvis Center on Feb. 22. The Billikens also have one national contest on ESPN2 when SLU visits defending national champion North Carolina on Dec. 7. CCIN women’s telecasts will have Saint Louis paired against Duquesne on Jan. 15, and La Salle on Feb. 3. Veteran Billiken announcer Bob Ramsey will call the action, while Highmark and Kristin Folkl serve as analysts. The A-10 will also feature the Billikens’ regular-season finale at Fordham on Feb. 26.

TheBand Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 at least the billiken head (from the bobblehead promotion) looks good. unlike the mascot. I did like the SLU Arena commercial last night with Beyondme leading the claps at the start. A theme of generating momentum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slu72 Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 I signed up for the full season on CSTV. Does anyone know if the live streaming includes TV broadcasts or is it just radio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLIKNS Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Over at www.basketballboards.net click on conferences,then a-10,WH posts A-10 schedule. Lists Dec.22 Gonzaga game on Fox-Northwest Feb.5 Xavier game on Fox-Ohio. These channels are part of Sports Pack on Directv and Dish Network has them also,think some cable offers the Fox net as well.

davidnark Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 I don't see any video icons next to the games on the CSTV SLU site, so I assume that it is audio only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kwyjibo Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 I was just checking out the Fox College Sports channels (in my cable I get Pacific/Central/Atlantic) to see if many A-10 games translate over from regional Fox Sports (which is still how Dish/direcTV do it I think). The bad news is that they don't. The other bad news is there is not that much good college basketball on these three channels. I was hoping the Xavier games for Fox Sports Ohio would be on one of them. However, the good news is that SLU vs. Gonzaga will also be on FCS Pacific. If I was a fan of Western Kentucky or Lehigh Fox College Sports would be golden(about 10 games each of those two). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
