Nice. Chase's ball fake and dunk weren't bad either.

Excellent recruiting class this year. MU will have some solid depth.

This "get to know the freshman" series was great. Credit to the maligned #mubb social media team.

Great. Now maybe they can figure out how to broadcast games from Italy live back to the US. Like we did in (checks notes) 2016.

I still follow Tomas Bilde on IG.

I will forever think Traci Carter could be the next Tony Miller bc Tomas nicknamed him the Engine.

There was an article in The Atlantic today about NDs football media deal negotiations. Towards the end it mentions streaming their Spring Scrimmage on Peacock (trying to develop streaming platforms), use it as a vehicle to develop ND broadcasting talent (Kyle Rudolph), and to enhance and promote player NIL exposure (indirectly of course, Mr. NCAA).

And here sits MUMBB relying on video highlights...(knowing there are barriers to streaming and this isn't football).  However, the next Big East media deal needs to better.

And, for some reason, MU has scaled back all pre-season fan events (BBQ, Al's Run, MM, Fish Fry, et al) that could influence NIL sales, and ramped up the big donor events (like this trip, the Chicago Shaka luncheon later the summer, golf outings). It's clear MU has shifted their marketing strategy to big donors. Maybe that's good overall (TBD), not so sure. But, I think their broad reach media strategy is weak.

ND football has a much larger following than MUBB.  How many people are going to skip out of work to watch MU play some semi pro team in Europe, while having to pay for a Peacock subscription, in the middle of the summer?

The $25 donations won't do anything compared to the $6M donation the big donors will make.

Yeah, I can't imagine the cost of trying to live stream these games. And to what benefit exactly? The people who would take time out of their day to watch them are already pretty hard-core.

As far as the various grassroots marketing programs, I'm sure they have done a pretty thorough cost-benefit analysis about who was coming to those balanced with the cost of putting everything together.

I kinda like the idea of using access to those games as an incentive for STH/donors. But I don't know that math on that, re: expected return vs. cost to produce.

Yeah, we did this 8 years ago when streaming wasn't nearly as commonplace as it is now. It's just like the lack of streaming for events like Madness. It's not the difficulty that prevents this from being available to us.

The cost is not in the stream the cost is in the production quality.  It's simply a business decision of what do you want to put out there.  For a University that is used to FS2 being it's worst presentation, they may not want to put out a product that doesn't look like a Big East telecast.

FS2 isn't the lowest quality production that the university uses.  Have you watched the streaming services for the non-revenue sports that MUAD puts out?  There is this thing now called YouTube that supports live streams.  Hell, Dodds has even figured it out.

I've spent years watching a lot of streaming college volleyball. Some of them are really bad. The student who did Seton Hall's matches one year was hilarious. Terrible, but hilarious.

Georgetown's announcer was reasonably competent...but she really didn't understand volleyball. And Georgetown used the same damn ad for every break during all the years I watched -- and still do several years later. I've probably seen  that thing at least 1000 times - or at least heard it.

Who do you think is funding the NIL deals?
