Re: Hanson Field - The New West Side

There hasn't been much news on this project. Is it still a work in progress? What's going on with it? It sounds like people are still working on things behind the scenes, but I haven't heard anything definite. Can you do some investigative work and find out Scott? You're our reliable web producer!

Re: WIU eliminating funding for WIUM/WIUW (our local public radio station)

Sign of the times, I guess ===> Each year, the new freshman class gathers at Hanson Field to form a block "WIU". Looks like they just did the "W" this year. https://scontent-ort2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/39543540_10157711225858957_7938089441300578304_n.jpg?_nc_cat=0&oh=c85cc2...

Re: WIU eliminating funding for WIUM/WIUW (our local public radio station)

Very disturbed that WIU recklessly went this route without any discussion from the community and from TSPR. Doing discussions and possibly reaching a compromise would have been reasonable. I would love to be optimistic about maybe WIU backtracking and trying something else, but lately they've been d...

Re: ESPN+ or ESPN3

For those of you familiar to the times when WIU's games aren't on ESPN3 or ESPN+ and you have to pay to get them, that's basically what we're looking at for the Montana State game. We'll need to pay roughly $10 to watch the game. Yes it stinks that we have to pay, but at least we'll be able to see t...

Re: ESPN+ or ESPN3

More of our games this year will be on ESPN+ than ESPN3. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Not sure if it even matters. The schedule now reflects the channels. I'm just glad practically all games will be broadcasted in some way shape or form $5 a month isn't terrible. Now the question ...

Re: Time for a change.

After seeing this season for Men’s basketball, I hate to say it, but it’s time to fire Billy Wright. The guy can recruit good talent, but he can’t do anything with that talent. He’s had 4 years to do something and I haven’t seen anything but maybe a step or two backwards. I will give credit for clos...

ESPN 3 apparently gone from WIU Basketball?

Hey Leatherneck Nation, I don't know if you noticed recently, but there have been no ESPN 3 broadcasts for basketball games. I know we had Winter Break and there are usually little to no broadcasts during break, but I discovered that the all access video website had many WIU home games listed for th...

Re: Charlie Fisher

Well shoot. Fisher is gone (apparently). Is the whole assistant staff gone too then? Hopefully we find a good head coach. It seems to always be our luck that we lose our head coach when we make playoffs.
