Title: Are the games in Florida on Redcast
Post by: Jeffrey Fullagar on December 29, 2011, 08:34:58 AM
I looked at the calender on redcast and did not see the games  in Florida on ther. Does anybody know if they are or not on redcast. Thanks for you help.

That's an interesting question.

There is a "watch" link under "details" on the schedule page, but the games do not appear at the left under the "upcoming events" tab. Perhaps they'll be added? (Wishful thinking, I know.)

If you click on the "watch" link, it takes you only to audio coverage.  These games have never been on RedCast in the past and I am sure if there was to be video coverage, it would be noted in the game notes, and on-line article about the tournament.

They have been on RedCast in the past, but audio-only.  The mystery is that there are no links on the RedCast "live events" page for either game.

It is very odd that the links, even for audio, are not listed yet.  Worst case scenario I think we can get the UMass radio feed online for free.

There was one recent event--I can't recall which--where the link didn't appear until shortly before webcast time.

I'm surprised that a "major" event like this isn't being covered by somebody. Even if only as an internet video feed.
It would be great for recruiting.

I wonder if the building is already equipped with all the cameras, recording equipment etc.  There is an entity called BladesTV.com that produces Everblades game videos.

The UMass athletic site is here (http://www.umassathletics.com/).

There is a link for streaming audio for the game here (http://www.wrnx.com/pages/umass.html).  Currently it goes to a 404 page.

Edit: there is another link here (http://www.mykix1009.com/pages/UMass.html) which goes to the radio station.

When I click "listen" I get directed to an online feed of their local radio station.  Here (http://www.mykix1009.com/pages/UMass.html)

But, sadly....no video.
Oh, well. It still beats Bills' football.

For what it's worth, b2livetv has the Cornell game listed, though no link. They are broadcasting the Maine game now, so there may be hope.

I'm watching the Clarkson game now. Maybe the link will come up closer to game time. However this game has a link on the ECAC page and ours doesn't.

By the way it's 5-0 Maine, third period, broadcasters from Maine, and the video is good.

Guess Karpowich isn't so impregnable.

It's 6-0 now. I didn't see the beginning, but the announcers said Clarkson has used 3 goalies.

Live Stats not working.

Ah ha, they just said Karpowich was sick, and never made the trip. Clarkson just scored 6-1.

Wow, no wonder why Black Bear Nation is calling for Tim's head! 6-1? Ouch.

A video icon has just appeared on the UMass athletics link.  Maybe that will be B2 (doesn't go anywhere yet).

Supposedly the game will come up on b2, 10 minutes prior to start.

Gotta love this statement that pops up before you sign on to purchase the webcast:

"Once we have tested the audio and video, and there are no issues, the event becomes "Live"."


RedCast, are you watching?

O.K., now I regret that I paid the $10 to watch this debacle.
Everybody played well except the one that mattered most.

Sure didn't look like that to me.  Desultory second and third periods.  No clearing the area in front of the net.

Totally agree. To put the blame on one player is ridiculous. The whole team fell apart in the second and third periods. As I said on Chat, if they had started the game like that, you'd say they were "rusty". But they showed in the first period that they knew what to do, they just stopped doing it.
