Re: Great West Football Conference announces TV de

Thanks for pointing this out. I copied this over to the Coyote board and asked them to also contact the cable companies and let them know there is widespread support throughout South Dakota for this channel.

The president should be proud of me. I have entered into a cooperative effort with another University in the SD higher education system.
