[leatherneckcountry]

Been a long time since we had two post to throw it to and have good things happen. If watson can develop a jumper he's going to be a hell of a player.

We might be playing ok, just hard to watch and listen and process. Almost need to keep your own score and time clock. lol

I was thinking the same thing. A very embarrassing live stream for a Division 1 institution. No audio, no score, and no clock is bad. At the very least, can we get the videographer to at least show the scoreboard during timeouts? Glad I didn't pay for that garbage!

The score was under the video but you couldn't see it in full screen mode.

I think that score and clock time were from the stat feed so even it was "behind the times". Clock definitely was not ticking away in real time.

We deal with this video issue every year. Sometime soon, after they locate the little statically-placed camera which captures the clock video from the main scoreboard, all will be well. LOL

Actually, we got a new Daktronics scoreboard last year so that little extra camera should not be needed. Maybe now, it is a simple matter of locating the right cable.

I have to give low marks for the Audio and Video production of today's game. Is this the best that we can expect ?????

The Video did not have announcers. And you only could see the score and time-remaining if you minimized the screen.

The Audio did a few technical glitches at times. The pre-game show was limited in content. And the post-game show did not have the usual Coach's Comments.

The Audio is only available via the internet. No local radio.

And the university is only doing Audio of Home games this year.

The university owns & operates two radio stations. Eastern Illinois University broadcasts their games (Home and Away) on their radio station, WEIU-FM.

On the plus side, I thought Cam Thomas did a respectable job as the radio voice. If we can merge and sync the video and audio streams, get some real time graphics on the video, all will be well enough for me.

He did have one minor slip-up when he said "MAKE-um" instead of "Macomb". But he quickly corrected himself.

Cam Thomas is from Webster Groves, Missouri.
