Louisiana Athletics Inks Two-Year Agreement With Cox Sports Television

[NewsCopy]

The CST broadcasts will be produced in conjunction with Jumbo Sports Television.

The agreement is independent of ongoing talks between UL and Learfield Communications for multimedia rights to Cajun athletic events, it’s been learned.

All games aired on Cox Sports Television will also be carried online by ESPN3 outside of the CST viewing areas.

i dont think our remaining mens games are on there, the article had a list of what games were being shown.

All home basketball games are on ragincajuns.com. Exception is if they are carried on an ESPN platform. Just because it does not show it there now does not mean the webcast won't occur. Regardless of this, getting our sports programs into the Baton Rouge and New Orleans area via CST is a positive development. I noted this is a two year agreement. I wonder if some basketball games will be carried by CST next year.

I am curious to see how pro LSU they will be on that baseball broadcast this year.

Well crap. This would have been great news 3 years ago. Today it just means there's 15 fewer games I (and probably a huge majority of fans) won't be able to see.

Jesus ____ing Christ!

Only you could see this as a negative

As a direct TV customer, I wish I would have known this years ago!

Is this true? We have had a couple of CST games and I have never been able to view them with DirecTV. Cox is a non starter for me. They are awful.

FYI, I have a calendar that I keep of UL/Saints sporting events that are on TV or streaming that anyone can subscribe to. I generally keep it updated. I update things as soon as I can.

I'm hoping the remaining home games not on CST are still going to be on ragincajuns.com ? And will Lynn finally have to call us "Louisiana?"

Well, below is the first scheduled game from the Cox Sports guide - so set your expectations accordingly because you will probably be disappointed.

I would hope that our new AD in "Athletic Negotiations" with these media folks, would add a clause in the agreement that specifically covers how our Brand Name will be utilized on their entire platform.......print, websites, guides, broadcast, social media and press releases. This would eliminate all of this uncertainty and strengthen our Brand Name.

Its real simple for Athletics (not implying Academics) - Louisiana first reference and only LA for any abbreviation needed.

Nothing else.

I hope our new Director of Athletics has this vision.

Well, don't know if this answers your questions, but it's encouraging nonetheless.

"We are excited to enter into this partnership with the University of Louisiana," stated CST Vice President Rod Mickler. "The Ragin Cajuns have one of the best fan bases in the country. We look forward to the opportunity to showcase their games across our entire network."

The last two Cajuns games he called he referred to us as Louisiana. Was a pleasant surprise. Hopefully he will continue to do so.
