Ben Steele is absolutely doing an amazing job covering MU. I would say almost at the same level as mattyV.

100% with you and Mom - Ben is doing a great job.  Follow Ben and #mubb and you have yourself covered.

i know people are kvetching over not getting 'respect' or 'visibility' but it's 2017, the MJS isn't going to drive that.

I don't think it's a case of insecurity. It's more of a fight of real news and what is fair.

Some have said there is more Bucks fans than MU fans. Sure. I'm willing to bet there are now.

I remember hearing that clown that left to Kansas City in Mike Wickett on WSSP saying in 2013. What will have a better TV rating MU vs Miami in the Sweet 16 or Kobe and Lakers at the Bucks. Well, the final results was MU with over a 15 TV rating and the Bucks game was something like a 0.8. In terms of viewers that 135,000 to less than 9,000. Talk about the talking head not even in the ballpark.

Comparing a regular season NBA game, that in all likelihood was not a nationally televised game, to an NCAA Sweet 16 matchup, that was nationally televised and part of one of the premiere sporting events in the US, is silly. Do you really think most people tuning in to that game were drawn by Marquette? Bad, bad comparison.
