You should go poll their fans during a UNCW vs WM game of my loyalties.
Solo and others (including “The Beard”) know full well they were ready and willing to expel me from Kaplan. Me and my son (7 yrs old at the time).
Lol.
Y’all casuals do entertain me though.

RE: Camera work
On a message board it comes across as sour grapes from the opposing fans. Thanks to FloSports and our AD, I did not watch the game last night. Clearly, UNCW was the better team last night and the one that was more motivated. Unless you are totally focused only on your team(as some fans are), you can see that there has been improvement by the Seahawks. Phillips is a good player and an upgrade over Toews(who was also good). Tribe fans(and others) tend to forget that both teams come to play. The Tribe has been awful since the Drexel game. Whether that is a reflection of the true talent on the team, or something has drastically changed, they are in big trouble. The very bottom of the conference is coming up fast and certainly will be the Tribe's resting place next season. Under Shaver and Holmes, the Tribe simply recruited better players than we used to get. Much of that was the offense was fun for the guys to play. Granted, we were not good on defense. Now, the Tribe cannot score enough to win most nights.
From an outsider, the coaching change has at least sparked an energy and increased output from UNCW. It, at a minimum, makes the games and team more fun to follow. Success often builds on success. It is surprising that JMU did not make the same move.
As for the broadcast, in past years, I don't recall it being awful. The is the first one I have not watched in more than 5 years between the two teams. Even as angry as I still am with the coaching change choice at W&M that led to the loss of 5 players and moved the Tribe from among the favorites to something less, I probably would be following and watching the games had the CAA not gone to Flosports. But, it made it easy to not watch. ESPN+ also would have been a choice I might have made for other sports to watch. I did not watch any football either unless local TV covered it. I still have hope that the conference can return to the more exciting, better brand of hoops, but the leadership is horrible at this point.
Good luck the rest of the season, guys.

Not if it causes missing game action.

Exactly Proff. I’m all for showing the dance team, cheer leaders, our less than appealing band, the kid in section 109 row L picking his nose while his brother dances, but NONE of that should be on camera while the ball is between the lines.

If the dance team is on the floor, no ball is being played.
