ZachTheZip Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 The MAC has left Fox Sports, and signed on with STO. I think this is a positive move. MAC Announcement about STO. They'll show at least 33 basketball games, up from the 20 that we had on FSO. MAC Game of the week package. WEWS sticks up for Akron and Can't. Quote
jberry1337 Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 Awesome! Anything that gets us more TV time is great news. Quote
Spin Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 Plus there are still the weeknight games on ESPNU or ESPN2. This can't be anything but positive. Quote
xu9697 Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 AWESOME NEWS!! I have been calling for his since the station began (or darn near it). Makes great sense for all involved. Quote
zipboy Posted July 30, 2010 Report Posted July 30, 2010 Good to hear. Focusing more on basketball for TV is good. Not many people are going to stay home Sat afternoon to watch MAC football. But a basketball game on a Wed night in February, that I could see. Quote
akzipper Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 I don't think the Akron dorms carry STO so this sucks big time! As much as I love this school, these little things really are starting to get on my nerves... Quote
plowerman78 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 no they do now, it got picked up halfway through the year. Its channel 98 on ur uofa cable ha ha Quote
akzipper Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 no they do now, it got picked up halfway through the year. Its channel 98 on ur uofa cable ha ha wow really I never would have known that. Baby steps for UA, if only we could get CMT too. But thats just being greedy! Quote
johnnyzip84 Posted July 31, 2010 Report Posted July 31, 2010 So I'm watching the Indians game beat the Jays 2-1 on STO today, and I'm thinking (before I checked on here) how nice it would be if the Zips had some sort of presence on STO. This is great! Quote
tbozeglav Posted August 2, 2010 Report Posted August 2, 2010 FSN was... meh... But STO is a much better network for regional exposure. It'll get a lot more local people watching our games especially since STO is available on pretty much all cable and dish packages in this area Quote
