Well this year has been seriously hit and miss with streaming video.  Although I have figured a few things out along the way so I thought I would update the thread.
Missouri State is Saturday December 15[/b]

According to http://www.missouristatebears.com/sports/m-baskbl/sched/mosu-m-baskbl-sched.html

There will be a video feed for the game.  It is a CBS set up (same as New Mexico and Saint Louis).  To get the feed, you will have to pay.  2 options for this.  $9.99 and a $14.99 one.  If you pick the $10 one, you will only be able to see Missouri State stuff.  If you pick the $15 one, you can watch any school that uses this thing.  I suggest the $15 if you like streaming video as we have 2 more games using this service in December.  Then just cancel the membership before January.

Oakland is Monday December 17

According to http://www.ougrizzlies.com/sports/m-baskbl/sched/oakl-m-baskbl-sched.html

See above for paid video options.

Final one to worry about is Murray State on Saturday December 29.  FYI, tickets are only $10 for the game.  A few of my family are going.

According to http://goracers.com/schedule.aspx?path=mbball

There will only be an audio stream.  Other games list a video link and ours does not.  It does list, however, that the game will be on ESPN3 if that is an option for you.

As usual, we will try and post free streaming video options but for $15 you can watch the next 2 games and not deal with pop ups or animated .gif like feeds.

After those games, we will be good to go with Horizon League streams of away and home games until the NCAA Tournament.  If CBS does the same as last year, the streaming of March Madness was well worth $4.

I'll update this as games get closer or go on if things change

Go Valpo!

Valpo Basketball / Detroit Shirt for 2/16/12?
August 29, 2012, 09:35:24 PM
Ok so I saw Paul Oren jokingly say we should have "219" shirts for the Detroit games.

I really think its an excellent idea.  So I made a mock up and threw it on my twitter today.

I have a feeling that the school might not really wanna do it, but if enough people are interested heck I'd get em done.

Maybe a gold shirt with brown letters


Thoughts?

For those of you new to Crusader Nation or perhaps forgetful...here is what the Titan fans left us last year....

Valpo Basketball / Tommy Kurth
December 31, 2011, 10:54:57 PM
I am curious if anyone else noticed that Tommy wasn't dressed with the team.  He wasn't in warm ups or streets either (that I noticed).  I know Richie was sick, but anyone know what the deal with Kurth is?
