I get that some of the local announcing teams can be over-the-top, but for me, that's part of the fun in listening to "small college" sports. I'd much rather have some of the personalities in the NSIC than the stuff you often see on ESPN.

Living away from SF and not being able to attend any games, I can rationalize the cost. Would love to see a student discount, young alumni discount, etc. however to build an audience instead of losing notorious tightwads once it goes to a pay model. For students at D2 schools not are typically not used to paying for tickets, I'd think you lose eyeballs for road games if a kid doesn't want to shell out over $100 bucks to watch their friends and classmates. Schools could perhaps package this with their booster club memberships?

Good info on the pricing....seems to go along with what we've heard in the past from the MIAA. I've seen MIAA broadcasts in the past and they are put-on by the schools themselves no different than we currently see in the NSIC. I'd guess this new deal will offer a few more bells and whistles, and maybe an effort to get all schools up to a baseline production value instead of some looking like watching a game on a VCR tape from 5,000 feet away. In the past schools have always been about "we want fans at the game", instead of being overly concerned about the production quality of a free service that helps people not attend games. If/when this goes $$, I don't think it's unfair for a better product to be expected by NSIC users. Some schools already have really strong production.

Any plans to utilize ad-revenue with the new streams? I'd be cool with it personally, more money for the schools.

RMAC guy jumping in here. You know what would be nice on the streams? Allowing you to pick home/away announcers. It would be nice if you got to hear your announcers. Although it was really awesome to listen to the Sam Houston guys losing their minds during media timeouts in 2014 when CSU Pueblo went down there and kicked their teeth in.

Moorhead's production is top notch. Probably the best in the NSIC.

This is just my opinion, but these broadcasts should be approached as professionally as possible. I once watched a game against a school who shall not be named and the announcers were anything but professional. I don't mind bias, I don't mind rooting for the home team - but be respectful of the opponents at the very least.
Said broadcast was anything but, especially in the closing minutes when it was apparent who was going to win. It was like listening to a middle schooler try to put down a classmate. It was more embarrassing than anything.
