And once we know we're in, we'll kvetch about our seed or it being a first-round road game. ("Thank you, G_d. But he had a hat.")

LOL! What a perfect way to express that sentiment.
Agree that we all need to wait to see what the committee decides.

Quote from: upprdeckmaybe saving camera money to bring back a radio feed ...

LOL- there's an interesting idea!
Agree with other posters that the video feed was, well... borderline awful.

Hearing Barry and Tom was great, though, and made up for the video.

Based on what the WHCU GM told me the broadcasters will be local for each team, so hopefully Barry will do our home games along with Tom and/or Howie - Jason Weinstein did them solo for ESPN+ last year, so we might not know until game time on Saturday. As another fan on the FanLax forum posted, another big loss is the pregame show with the coach interviews, matchups, etc.

About the radio broadcast - I emailed WHCU's GM and learned that, due to an Ivy League deal with ESPN+, Cornell will no longer have WHCU broadcast CU Lacrosse games.
To say this is disappointing is huge understatement, as Barry along with Tom and/or Howie provided unparalleled play-by-play and expert commentary on the games.  I'm sure many/most of us would listen to them while watching games on ESPN+.  Their banter, analysis, and historical reflections about Coach Moran during the Rutgers rain delay last year were absolutely priceless.

Hopefully this will not extend to hockey next year.
