Or do Disney bundle. You can get Hulu (with ads),Disney plus and sown plus for like 13 dollars. 

we pay like 17 for it and ad free Hulu. Not too bad.

Taking a group today...I’m hoping my string of bad luck every time I manage to do this ends with a North Texas dub. Scrappy be praised...Go Mean Green 

[Mean Green Matt]

Looks like another very disappointing crowd that I am sure some will find a way to rationalize.

Ah, but it is.   It’s still being carried on ESPN+ as well.  

Not seeing it.

I could be wrong but I think regular TV games are only streamed on ESPN3 rather than ESPN+.

At least it’s nice and loud here in the pit!

[Andrew]

I still can’t get over how lime green our court looks on tv....

[Andrew]

Did the announcers just say Smart transitioned from a 3 guy to a defensive specialist? 🤔

Glad to see improvement but it’s sad we get excited with this kind of crowd

I love it, very unique and vibrant and recognizable.  That apple green color should really be a signature. 

[tmjerm]

ODU has on some lovely kits

We've cooled off and have had major turnover issues.

[Coach Andy Mac]

Gipson double dribbled?  He needs to clean that up.

It’s weird because that is not the color in person, but it always looks like that on tv. 

[greenminer]

Weird.  It looks like a green-tinted swimming pool

It’s a good atmosphere for sure. The crowd is a bit higher pitched than usual.

I wonder if it has to do with our lighting. It looks darker in there, but in person it’s perfect to watch. On tv the crowd looks darker.

Yeah that’s the old school lighting in the arena.  Very dated looking but I’ve grown to love it.  So many mid majors have sanitized their facilities of any authenticity.  I know the Pit will be replaced soon and probably for good reason, but I really appreciate its history and I think she’s shining well in her old age.

I also think the brightness of the green on tv is magnified bc the battle flag.

Didn’t they replace the court lighting when they did the renovations a couple of years ago?

Edit: Also, the fact that a new basketball arena is anywhere near the top of the list is a terribly misplaced priority. This place is perfect.

The court looks great on TV.  Thanks to all who helped with the design.
