I sent a note off to Cornell athletics asking about the disruption in service this year. of the 15 people i sent it to I got one response back... the comment was, "We pay them to provide the service. We are unaware of any disruption or spotty service happening".. they were also unaware that the archiving of the games has never happened this year..

the comment was also made the x2sports is just XMI under a different name??


too bad that CU athletics doesnt get it.. they could have asked XMI to cover the Colgate game under the same umbrella that CU uses for their paid subscription.. It wouldnt hurt time warner or Colgate one bit and provided even more people with the ability to view the game..

I agree it really wouldn't hurt Time Warner, but I'm assuming they wouldn't allow it.  Colgate uses XMI as well, and they aren't showing the game online either.

Well, I hope CU shop around next season. It seems reasonable to expect the quality of the Cornell feed be at least on par with Colgate's free service. IIRC, the videos of the Cornell at Colgate games from past 2 seasons were excellent.
