Clearly you don''t understand what's going on. While they have a number of affiliates that are showing their games, they're only being broadcast on one station at a time, on a rotation basis.

At the end of the day, comapred to a single schools getting the better coverage by having all it's home game broadcast live from the Eastern part of Texas to Western Florida and parts of Arkansas and Oklahoma, ESPN Live National Coverage, NBC Yearly National Coverage, It's Okay for a Conference

We reach waaay more viewers and it doesn't even come close to our conference pkg.

The Southland's package airs on over 20 stations across Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas and they broadcast some games on ESPN3 .......... LIVE, no tape delay.

No swac schools can attest to this......
 
If the SWAC schools in LA and Texas would stop being so afraid to play their neighboring Southland schools, they could be on TV more. Some teams only schedule 10 games instead playing schools close to them. Then complain when they get no TV exposure.

McNeese State who is a member of the Southland Conference........

Fiyah...save your breath...they actually believe Cox is "regional coverage."
 
It baffles me how the SWAC turns down regional/national TV coverage because the network wants us to change our start time or they might inconvenience us a little bit. We are (literally) the dumbest conference in the world. SEC schools change their start times to accommodate TV networks. But not us...sheeeeesh. Do we not realize that we are the SWAC? The SWAC should play on Sunday if somebody is going to show it on network TV
 
I would like to see the JSU/SU game on TV too. Would be a nice game to see. I also think its stupid not to have the largest black college classic the MCC not on TV, but hey when you go Duer Sharp as your commissioner, what do you expect.

Actually uuuuh, it might not be so bad that this game aint on TV...but GR digress

I don't... Cox Sports is only available to Cox subscribers ... which is limited to certain markets

I'd rather the SWAC look to getting a package like the Southland or getting in on Sinclair Broadcasting's American Sports Network

CNN Money said:
BALTIMORE, July 17, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBGI) (the "Company" or "Sinclair") announced today that it has launched the American Sports Network ("ASN"), a collegiate sports initiative to be broadcast on a number of Sinclair's broadcast television stations, and has entered into comprehensive sports rights agreements with a number of distinguished NCAA Division I conferences including Conference USA, the Colonial Athletic Association, Big South Conference, Southern Conference, and Patriot League. The initiative will be led by Doron Gorshein, Chief Operating Officer of Sinclair Networks, a division of Sinclair, who joined the Company in January 2014. The announcement was made by David Smith, President and CEO of Sinclair.

Sinclair's broadcast stations reach about 38.9 percent of US Households as of right now..

Maybe it's time for the SWAC to get some more media-savvy leadership like all the other conferences either have done or in the process of doing
 
Surely you all are not comparing Southern U. television package with Cox to the entire SLC conference.......

You do know all of our tape delayed games are shown LIVE on ESPN3 right?

Their "network" is not better than the SWAC TV deal.
 
Enough with the jibber jabber and he said/she said...

Show me some data...revenue sharing from the TV deals for each school.

Why don't you do some research since you're interested in knowing? That would be the sensible thing to do as opposed to begging someone on a message board to do this.......

Not necessarily begging the people that claim to be in the know so much. I'm just asking for information. Until then, all of this talk about who's in what market and all that is simply BS...

Now since the IRS 990 form is available, I can go and do that. But why when a lot of these people on this message board claim to be "in the know" with their respective athletic departments. What's the difference between what I'm asking for than the other crap y'all been asking for up in here?

There is no need to get defensive or explain yourself. Just use your research skills to find out what you want. It was merely a suggestion that you can take or pass on. You used the words "y'all." Don't include me in that stupidity because if I need to know something, you will never see me doing undercover begging or exemplifying laziness. I will find out what I want to know by researching it.....

Wasn't it Bluedog that started that?

And how many tape delayed games do we have?

How can their deal not be better than the swac's? I know from mid september thru november I can watch a southland game every sat at the same time each week. Now they even thru in a wildcard week so they will broadcast the best game that may have conference championship implications.

And when you point out facts with research data, you always have that delusional group who like to discredit your finding, but only have more delusional thoughts to backup their words.

So you watch a SLC game on TV every week? How many folks who aren't fans of that particular matchup will login and watch? How many fans can randomly flip channels and see a SWAC game on TV at some point in the season? National TV, whether live or delayed, will have higher viewership than regional or online. Heck in Houston the regional TV feed is rabbit-ear quality.

Then add basketball, softball, and bowling, which I saw live for the SWAC multiple times last regular season by just flipping channels and almost never for the SLC and it is not a comparison.

The only data, I NEVER buy into is budget data. It's almost ALWAYS made up or not properly normalized. Most other data, I can get with.

I'm sure the word "delusional" made you respond to my post.

So are you saying budget data is the only data that is made up and is not properly normalized? I guess you never heard of the phrase "inaccurate or flaw scientific data". But you are right, some data are inaccurate, which is why you have to question the data source, such as any financial data that schools are required to release to the media by law (Freedom of Information Act). And if a school does report inaccurate financial data, the person in-charge could possible get in trouble for forging documents and misleading the public.

I don't have to log in to watch a SLC game, it comes on one of my cable system channels. Don't matter if you're not a fan of a particular matchup, it's football and that's all that matters.

I'm in Houston and I have great TV quality on my sports channels and even the local channels.

Don't add those other sports, we're just talking football.

The Swac conference does not have anything to do with those games I noted above, so how is those games part of the swac tv package. The conference has 3 tv games to go with the 1 online game, the championship game and the game they share with the Meac. Their contract is with ESPN for those selected games only.
