I really don't understand how you guys are ok paying more for Flosports than you are for a Hulu, Disney+, and ESPN+ bundle which is $18.99 a month. This is d2 football fellas, paying $20 a month or 5$ a game is obscene. I wouldn't pay $5 a game for Big Ten football or NHL hockey.
It all kinda comes back to the actual schools, though, not Flo. The individual schools are the ones who decide whether they want to charge to see their product, and then the schools come together with the GLIAC and decide to go with a provider who charges a big amount for it. It could easily go back to being up to the individual schools to offer video for free or charge on a per-game basis, but they decided not to.2021 D2Football Fantasy Champion

When you get to the average age of the posters on this board we have more disposable income and to some extent more flexible schedules I'm sure if you took a poll of people on this board the $19 a month spent on the ESPN bundle most wouldn't watch Disney or other than a show or two probably not Hulu either. It's about priorities and for you its probably more important to talk about Ashoka at parties then what play was ran on 3rd and 6.
For those of us who can't attend all of the home games due to time constraints or travel the $5 - 7 a game is cheap. I live 90 minutes away from Pitt roughly 120 miles door to door. at 30 miles per gallon thats 4 gallons of gas at 3.50 a pop. (14). A ticket is (15). Parking is free. Nachos, hot dog and a coke (10). total time a minimum of 7 hours. Total cost a minimum of $39. So I can pay for almost 2 months of Hudl for the cost of going to one game. It's all about ones perspective and what you compare it to.

I get that. It just sucks living out of state. Money is tight, and twenty bucks is steep when I can't find anyone to split it with. It was real easy to follow games for free, but it gets harder to when I'm about to get engaged and trying to stretch ever cent. Just bummed out it's harder to support my alma mater that I love so much
