i agree the internet tv feed was good and the play by play was great. Could use some replay though. I just hope this feature is here to stay. The 4th quarter- I only saw one other viewer listed on the chat. I wonder how much time they will stick with it while losing money. Does the school subsidize this? They won't for long if they can't get 10 people to tune in.

I was the other connection, ;D and it was worth the $8.00. Resolution was good (I agree replay would be cool) or at least a download of game footage to review later.
Nice Job D-Fence!...
Looking forward to next week! Keep Working it Hoyas!!!

They won't for long if they can't get 10 people to tune in. I agree replay would have been nice, but that's a capability that would really up the cost of the broadcast. It seems pretty clear to me that it's as 'minimalist' a set-up as possible, with one game camera, one 'in-booth' camera, one announcer, one producer/director, and one cameraman. I think they're doing very will for what they've got to work with, but I agree that if it's just you, me, and YippekiYea (who appears to be Allan's older brother), I doubt the contract will be extended to next season.

Thats correct about the geneology, Showcase, or should I call you Sherlock ;D... Hehehe Since I work for another University's IT dept, I can tell you that GU can afford to keep the streaming video up and running.... Besides if we go undefeated next season, they'll need more bandwitdh..! See you Oct 23rd!!

Hey, nothing gets past The Show...
I would think that the production costs would exceed the cost of the bandwidth itself, but I have no experience on that front. There are what, four or five games on the webcast schedule this season? I have no idea what total cost per game is on the announcer, cameraman, and producer/director, nevermind the equipment.
Anyone have a guess?

its not even just about how much they can afford to lose- why would they continue the effort if NOBODY cared? Pretty hard to justify all that work for the benefit of three of us.

Well they lost big in the effort, but next week's opponent was able to score 14 points on Ohio in week one. Going to be ugly.

This georgetown team is no joke either if they have a real qb at the helm. The defense is among the best in 1-aa (scored 19 points today - forget the 2 yard run, the d got em there)
I expect a win.

any thoughts on why Cangelosi has yet to see the field?

I think he got in against Colgate for a few plays and didnt do much better than Allan but other than that I have no idea why he hasn't gotten a chance.

at this point we have to assume Cangelosi is not impressive in practice to say the least if he hasn't seen time.

Maybe he just isn't the right fit for the current offense. If we change things up a little and actually throw a pass every few possessions then he might be the best guy for the job.
If we can get Zo Turner to suit up for the next game then fine, keep running the option, but thats not gonna happen. Put Cangelosi or Crawford in and let's get the ball in the air a little.
