Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

Last bi!ch about this topic. The lack of an internet video feed for us non-subscribers to MidContinent Cable needs to be addressed to the proper people. below are links to Summit Commish Douple and MidcoSportsNet. I believe this was the first year that an internet feed was not available. They need to realize that for the majority of fans from all schools involved that we are either outside the Midco footprint and not all cable, satellite providers carry FoxCollegeSports Network. As I said before most Fox Sports Network affiliates pick and chose what they want to carry and most carry what Fox Sports Network provides. And for most that is not FoxCollegeSports. To provide an internet feed for only subscribers of Midco cable is wrong and should be addressed. The only way things will change for next year is if everyone affected says something. I have sent emails, tweets, and phone calls to Midco,Douple and DishNetwork( to add FoxCollegeSports to their multisport package). I urge you to do the same. We missed some great games because of this and I for one am pissed about it.

I'd like to echo Sturgis' beef. The Summit League/Midco missed out on some internet easy monies not providing an option for the truly out of the area backers. Likewise, GoJacks/Neulion need to start assuring that all LEAGUE AWAY games are available and provided via GoJacks all access. There should be no reason that a reprocity situation is available within the two leagues (MVFC & Summit). As we move further and further into the digital age, it feels that less is being freely available.

About to head back to SF.

We got a little snow in Brookings overnight/this morning. Dad just drove to the rest area exit to see what I-29 looks like...he says it doesn't seem slippery, but it's snowy in places and could be dicey if conditions don't improve.

The snow is done and the sun is starting to peak out. It's pretty windy which is blowing the fresh snow around quite a bit. I'm guessing the roads will be fine in a couple hours/once the parade to SF begins.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

You are partially correct. It was a 7 point game at the time of the injury (bison up 37-30). WIU got it to within 2 (39-37) and it looked like they might take the game over at that point in honor of Ceola, but they kept forgetting to guard Wright at the three point line on the other end and he made them pay, twice in a row.

I went away from my TV set when it happened so did not see the injury or note the score, but later heard a 37-39 score. You guys were no doubt paying more attention. So will pull my dog from this fight in precise details. I really hated to see this happen to such a key player. In fact, I was somewhat resentful that Clark got his medical redshirt and played this season. A great athlete none the less.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

Clark actually was injured before he took the shot--coming down the court on that possession, he twisted something at mid-court and went down. Refs stopped play, and Clark took a while getting back up--taking a loooong time to tie his shoe. Then when he got the ball, he drove into the lane, where he tried to push off on that leg to take the shot and it just went out on him.

His shoe was tied. He actually untied it himself and re-tied it to buy more time. That was a very bizarre sequence of events. Not good.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

Does anyone know where all the postgame interviews might be available? I had heard that IPFW men's coach was a bit disappointed with the SF venue.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

Was driving, jump stopped and seemed to land awkwardly, crumpled to the ground screaming in pain. Sure looked like an ACL tear to me. WIU was down 37-30 when CC3 got hurt. They made a little run to close within 2 and then Wright hit another couple of 3's. Wright shoots the lights out in the arena.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

He went down with about 8 minutes left in the game with a potential knee injury. A sad way to end a exciting career at WIU. Coach Mo said he was not a doctor, but he felt it was a knee injury during the press conference. Bison lead only by 2 when it happened, and WIU was not the same without him. When Jack Hoeft becomes the leader, then something is missing, namely a tenacious guard.

Re: Summit at the Falls 2013

One big shout out to the (our) PA guy for the tournament. I'm not usually to much of a grammar/pronunciation nazi, but I called him out a month or two ago, after an IUPUI game at Frost (don't recall whether it was men's or womens) stating I wished he would correctly pronounce Jaguars (Jag-waars, not Jag-wires, which for some reason, really gets to me, I yell at my tv to NFL commentators as well).

He was very professional in a PM upon reading my comment, and stated he would strive to correct the pronunciation.

Lo and behold, it's tournament time, and it's been all Jaguars. Very well done!

*edit* (to avoid B2B posts)

Tomorrow is going to be a blast.

I wanted USD for women and NDSU for men bad. Really bad.

Time to go big or go home.

Watching the Sun Belt Conference Championship Game. Pretty pathetic fan support from what I see. Looks half full at the most.
