Excellent!
The “TV” link from the athletics page gives you the Houston versus Texas State game…

And thanks!

last night was perfect example of fans confused and desperately trying to not miss a second of the broadcast. What's amazing is that this situation has not changed one bit from 15-18 years ago. Ran into so much b.s. with locating the correct feed that people were all over chat rooms and the like, begging for the damn game. They had fake countdowns on previous games, there were links that all of a sudden, you got a huge block over the stream that said this is a subscriber only channel (during a pitch) and more b.s. stories. I'm sure UL posted a detailed description of all options to watch/hear, I'll bet there were 4-5 threads regarding this subject leading up to it, well guess what, all of that is worthless to folks who just want to watch Cajuns vs. Tigers at first pitch. They're not on RP, the don't care that UL Athletics put out an information release. It's gametime and a tremendous amount of people couldn't find the Cajuns and State.

In conclusion, none of it worked.

Who are you trying to blame? The game was on TV on multiple channels and streaming on multiple outlets. UL baseball sent out a release stating all of the viewing options. I have a group of about 10 guys that I text with about college baseball, scattered across the country, and literally nobody has had any issue watching every pitch this weekend.

Was this sarcasm? Lol. Feels like this is going to get around to being Marlin’s fault in about 3-5 posts.

I didn’t. Literally nobody I know that was interested in watching, which was at least 15 people, had any issues at all. Some watched on DirecTV, some out of state guys on MLB Network, a couple on the MLB app, and a handful via the Astros channel on YouTube. And there were other options as well.

I asked who it is that you are trying to blame for people not being able to watch for whatever reason. The information was given via multiple platforms, as were the viewing options.

Whose fault is it that you apparently had an issue?

And once again, coming back with some "way you saw it" and your group you talk college baseball with are NOT who I'm talking about. Fairly certain many had zero issue, I had zero issue, your group no issue, that's nice. WHO I'm speaking of IS NOT ON RP, DONT CARE WHAT TYPE OF RELEASE WAS PUT OUT BY UL. This is exactly the prototypical type of response I expected. The viewpoint of I had no issue, my group had no issue, RP had 10 threads on this, UL stated where to watch, HAS ZERO NO BEARING on the FACT there were tons of people having issues to find the stream, FACT.

Blaming others is obviously your viewpoint, not mine. I'm blaming not a soul. I am stating a FACT.

I searched for Astros Classic on YouTube TV app on Friday and found it in 7 seconds.

I opened the TV app last night and the LSU Cajuns icon link was the first thing I saw, literally a foot high and wide.

Go back and read your original post. “What's amazing is that this situation has not changed one bit from 15-18 years ago” and “ I'm sure UL posted a detailed description of all options to watch/hear…well guess what, all of that is worthless” and “They're not on RP, the don't care that UL Athletics put out an information release”

What is it that should have been done? Provide a hot line?

Lol, hotline, What I'm getting at is that UL, Astros et al are not being blamed for anything. I believe that an issue exist with the new fan, just got back from war, been locked up, folks who might like a page which any and all can visit (and do 0 research in order to watch UL Athletics. Maybe a "Watch the Cajuns" website with absolutely nothing else on it but a here you go, link to game feed, for those folks who watch only a couple games per year, or bars which are looking for the damn channel at first pitch (not exactly into researching) into astros.com. A simple one page, web page with links to today's Ragin' Cajuns games.
