I don't know what the market
I don't know what the market
I don't know what the market is for hockey viewing online, but Michigan might be able to finance something free through some kind of advertising, especially if they used broadcasting students like they do for "BTN Campus" or whatever they call the version that's only available on Big Ten university networks.
Either way, I'd gladly pay LSSU's prices to watch all of the non-nationally televised games. $75 works out to something like five bucks a game; I get more value out of that than ESPNU or some of the other cable sports networks on my cable tier.
Go Blue!

Not bashing Dave Brandon, but why would he put hockey on for free if he could charge for it - and get advertising money, too?
Still, it does seem strange that other schools have this, and we don't.

and I'd gladly pay and watch commercials; I just think it might be possible to break even without subscription fees, which is what the guy above suggested.
Hopefully the BTN takes over and knows what they're doing next year, even if that requires buying a premium package for cable or online. $100 to catch every Big Ten hockey game along with some kind of permium previews or wrap up shows would get a lot of buyers between M, MSU, Minnesota and Wisconsin, and maybe a few people would pull the trigger in State College or Columbus.

I get where you're coming from, but I think DB is about the revenue, or at least what facilities can be upgraded (etc.) with mo' money.
BTN may take over, but I wonder if a stream would be a crappy viewing experience, because maybe the number of U-M viewers would be more bandwidth than they anticipated.

but it's eight bucks for tonight and another eight tomorrow, plus some other longer term options if you want to start watching LSSU athletics online. I don't want to sound like such a broken record (I feel like I say this almost every weekend), but LSSU and Ferris and whoever else having these options available and Michigan doing nothing similar just seems ridiculous.
