I can’t figure out if this will be televised or streamed. If last year is any indication, we are not going to see this one.
I’m assuming no too, given all the effort the organizers are putting into making the event a weekend-long affair of on-site happenings.
The venue is awesome. Been to the women’s pro tennis tournament there the last few years

Anyone know the answer to @Cuts_from_The_Corner question? I sure hope so, but I worry it won’t be

Someone take one from the team and livestream it on their phone

I can’t imagine it’s going to be streamed. I feel like it would take a decent amount of infrastructure setup to do it and i don’t know that anyone national is beating down the door to do it (we’d have heard by now).
I’d be surprised as well. The weird venue doesn’t help. The infrastructure is set up to broadcast tennis. Also, what do they do if there are weather issues lol? It’s the south, at noon, in still basically summer down there…

Charleston’s gym is the rain site, per the website.
If it’s not streamed, so be it. I know nothing about streaming infrastructure so I won’t weigh in on that. But by this point, someone in the program should know or have a good idea. And they have a twitter account. Use it!
And are the still handful of reporters who cover UVa sports too busy poring over football injury reports to send a one line question on this to Bacher, via text?
Can the Augusta guy figure anything out that doesn’t involve a FOIA request?
None of this is a big deal, of course. Just mildly annoying.

Funnily enough, they were first to the swoosh: Credit One Bank - Wikipedia
In 2005, the bank was acquired by Sherman Financial Group,[4] a diversified investment services company founded by Ben Navarrowhich runs one of the largest buyers of consumer debt in the United States.[7][4] On February 1, 2006, FNBM changed its name to Credit One Bank, N.A.[1][4] In that same year, the bank continued its rebrand by changing its logo to have an arcing “swoosh” above the name of the bank. Capital One underwent a similar rebrand in 2008, displaying a “nearly identical” logo to Credit One, leading to confusion among consumers. Marketing by Capital One led to an increase in customers for both itself and Credit One, some of whom were unaware that the two were different companies.[4]
Also there’s a storied and often-comedic lineage of banks all having the same name: https://www.federalreserve.gov/econres/feds/files/2024044pap.pdf
One in five banks in the United States share a similar name. This can increase the likelihood of confusion among customers in the event of an idiosyncratic shock to a similarly named bank. We find that banks that share their name with a failed bank experience a half percent drop in transaction deposits relative to banks with similar characteristics but different name. This effect doubles for failures that are covered in media.

I’ve heard Odom wants it televised but Tony called and said “NO. And if you do I’m taking my name off the court.”

ESPN+ offers replays right? I might be busy and can’t watch live but would love to watch a replay..
I don’t have ESPN+ but considering I bought FloSports just for the 20-21 opener against friggin Towson, I’m definitely thinking about it, just for this exhibition..

Probably just a lag, but I will feel even better when our side posts it

It wouldn’t surprise me if it was a Vandy production with their own PBP, etc, so we may not send it out in that case. But who knows.
