It's another in our school's long line of "things we're working on" at a snail's pace because nobody on our front has any sense of urgency, and it'll probably end up in our pile of "things that fell through" because we're afraid of our own success and are going to waste this opportunity over the few grand it would cost to make our broadcasts compatible with larger Cox distribution and ESPN3 blackouts.

It all comes back to those outlying areas CST has that conflict with the current ESPN contract that the conference has," Farmer said. "The contract states that, basically, we can create our own stations and we can put it in any state the Sun Belt has a school in, or in any state that touches that state.

Alright Cajun Nation we know what to do. We will fight this battle on two fronts. Get your guns ready. One group will lead the charge for the annexation of Arizona into New Mexico and the other will lead a similar charge for the annexation of Nevada or Oregon into Idaho. If one group is successful we will then have a SBC member in a state neighboring California and our problems will be solved. This most likely has a higher probability of success than little Scotty Farmer getting this CST blackout deal done on his own.
