Several things bothered me. Jim Ellis saying 24/7 wrong. Not asking the coaches to wear something decent. But what bothered me the most was the coach's analysis where they'd walk over to a 37" tv to talk about a player. Why not do like you would a game broadcast and display the video on the entire screen. Or if you are going to show it on a tv, make it a big one and set it up to where the guys are already standing there when you cut to it instead of watching them actually walk over. (like it's done on the SportsCenter set or MLBtv's set.

I wasn't willing to enter credit card information to get my "free" trial. I figured anything worth hearing would get posted on Twitter anyway.

I would say it was on par with last year. I purchased the 2 week package for ~$15. I would say it was worth it for the simple reason that it was 100% MSU coverage on TV!! I only wish we could have done this years ago. If u were expecting ESPN type coverage/graphics then u would be disappointed

Sorry but State needs a better host personality

Yeah, it wasn't a cutting edge production. But my biggest complaint would be we need better talent in the host seat. We need a beter personality to be the "voice of the Bulldogs" period. I appreciate all Ellis has done over the years. He is THE voice of State baseball but a front man he is not. He is to dry and his delivery is bland. I think with the technology and unversities being able to do more and more television, we have to get someone who is entertaining to host these shows/events.

That is my .02.
