    Thanks...I knew someone would know more of the correct details about it than I do. Still shows that UNI and the A.D. aren't broadcasting or distributing. I am guessing that Learfield makes money by finding more partners to distribute to, so I don't see any reason to think they wouldn't be trying. DSM people, just like western Iowa people and even eastern Iowa folks, need to contact their radio and t.v. stations and show them there is a large demand for the product so that when Learfield comes knocking next time they feel it is worth the money. I believe it has been stated by NB and others that it all comes down to how much advertising they can generate by broadcasting the games. Advertisers want listeners / viewers.

      I wonder where Learfield/UNI found the "General Manager" of Panther Sports Properties. While I agree that both parties should have a vested interest in the most coverage possible, I wonder if the person in-charge has any idea what they're doing.

        I am sure the people from Learfield are well qualified. Doubt the school would want someone that isn't.

            After I turned on KXNO last night and heard the ISU women's game was on and they weren't playing tonight I had faith it'd be on KXNO, otherwise we'd be SOL again and listening to cyclone women's bball.

              Or... turn on ESPNU and watch the game on TV. It does happen, UNI can be televised without not knowing if it would actually be on.

                We don't get ESPNU.
                "...the Northern Iowa men's basketball team reached the ultimate highs before hitting a devastating low. Unexpected success, followed by unimaginable failure. And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                  The ESPN feed is also on Channelsurfing.net

                  I run it through my PS3 and watch on regular tv

                    It's because they don't advertise the MVC worth crap when it is on their networks. They will advertise the hell out of a high school game for 2 weeks that will be on ESPN but not a MVC game. Hell, they advertise OVC games better than MVC games.

                      Sorry, I was trying to poke fun at Mediacom because you just never know if they are going to come through and actually televise the game.

                          The viewing/listening options for this game were perfect. For whatever reason the Panther sport radio broadcast was running about 30 seconds behind the ESPNU broadcast. Pause ESPNU for 30 seconds, resume, turn down the sound, and listen to Gary and KB on KXNO perfectly synced up with the TV.

                          No wonder the game went so well.

                            KXNO is advertising that they will be carrying the Illinois St. game Saturday.

                              It looks like NFL playoffs. KXNO- we will air UNI games as long as no other sporting event is going on including lawn bowling.

                                You have to understand that the NFL playoffs were a totally unplanned event - caught KXNO by surprise.
