Not free. The way it’s looking pregame, a refund request may be in order.

Panning fisheye webcam from the 4th row up. No commentary. No score graphics. Was not able to sync the radio broadcast to the live stream on the web browser, but was able to sync it on their iPad app for a while. Every couple of minutes the video jumps back "live" and then the radio broadcast is a good minute behind again. Total pain to keep resyncing it.

Blame Canada.

Folks, save your money. The webcast is a joke. They eventually put up a graphic but the score was rarely ever correct and the clock was never correct. The camera frequently panned away from the action to the empty end of the court. Next game, going to the radio broadcast and using my mind's eye for the action, like in the old days.

Not pertaining to the broadcast, but what the hell was up with playing music on the PA system during game play? Also, what is the point of four American universities going to Canada for an early season tournament?

Cats fall 77-66. Second half shooting was abysmal, from the field and the line. If we shoot like the first half, we win by 4 or 5.

Blown out by Quinnipiac. If this team does happen to win the Big Sky tournament again they're doing everything to insure they'll be a 16th seed or in a first four game in Dayton.

Two pretty bad losses. If we think we are a decent mid major program we can't be dropping these games.

Ouch, Cats lose 72-71 to Middle Tennessee and go 0-3 over the weekend. Shot over 50% today but had 23 turnovers. From the play by play Belo missed what would've been the game winner.

I listened to it. Love the passion of our announcer. I agree that both of our teams, men and women, are doing everything they can to earn a 16 seed should they win the Big Sky. Sounds like the men really played hard. Too many turnovers and some homecooking by the refs.

I look forward to watching both teams once we get into Big Sky play, even if our conference is definitely the minor leagues.

Keaton Gilogly's P X P is really good! Using his call to visualize what's going on is just as entertaiing as watching on TV.

I agree, he is good. I think the men are trying to find an identity and the right pieces to replace the experience we lost. While we may worry about seeds, I think coaches use the early games to be ready for league and the best way to win it. Makes sense because we could go undefeated in early games and if we don't win the Big Sky tourney we are not going to big dance

I think we should always focus on winning the conference. Once that becomes more likely, we can then worry about tournament seeding. We aren't remotely close to achieving the first part yet. Hopefully last year was a start toward that acheivment.

I think it's gonna be hard to replace Xavier Bishop. He could penetrate at will and finish, shoot the three at a high percentage, and find the open man when the other two weren't there. Not many teams had a PG like him. Having watched the team a couple of times those are the things that are missing from this team.

Agreed. X-man was the x-factor. The more I watched him the more I realized how totally good that guy was. He made us, as a team, a lot better.
