New OTA TV deal: MVC and Gray Media

[Bulldog2323]

For the streamers out there, all these games will also be on ESPN+ with no blackouts. Certainly a great way to appeal to both the channel surfers and the streamers. A great win for the Valley.

The leadership of this league has always had a great understanding of TV and media. This is another example. Fantastic deal and it keeps our games out of the fog if asinine carriage disputes.

Well done everyone!

I still need to read up on this, but I have to think this makes it easier to sell advertisements to businesses that might be relevent to non-league members as well, especially when regional matchups take place (SEMO, WKU, Butler, etc.)

I wonder if they're utilizing the new Bulls/White Sox/Blackhawks network for Chicago which has an over the air competent to it.

I assume its either the Reinsdorf network or Marquee picking up the games. I would lean more towards Marquee seeing as their programming is a lot smaller.Marquee only has the Cubs, Sky, and Bears Postgame. Reinsdorf can cover the winter slate with NHL games, Marquee doesn't have a winter sports offering and was largely showing Bally Sports MVC games to fill their gaps anyhow. Caught quite a few Mo State games that way.

Marquee isn't OTA. It'll be the new Reinsdorf venture or a local subchannel.

Also, neither Bally Sports MVC games nor Missouri St games were on Marquee. There’s a broadcasting archive that lists every network (and time/date) for every game played in the college basketball season (as well as other sports), and none of those games were on Marquee. There were 4 Illinois St games on Marquee, but those were not part of the MVC’s Bally Sports package.

They utilized the Bally Sports score bugs. Didn't really pay attention to much else if I am being honest.
