The problem with 97.1 is that when you try to stream they are playing music, and not the game

 

It seems like there were technical issues, and good ole UNT doesn't have people who can fix them.

I've been periodically checking in on my computer and the game isn't on desktop/digital/whatever.

Thought it was just me! I appreciate the commentary on the thread so I can keep up with the game.

On ESPN under the college scores if you follow the game their Gamecast does a good job showing the plays

I like to sync our radio broadcast with the TV. Last week the Varsity Network was ahead of the TV feed and would not let you pause and resume the game where you left it. Every time you unpaused it, it would return to live.

So the Varsity call was always about 10 seconds ahead of what was happening on the TV.
 

I had to turn it off, which is sad because I am a BIG fan of our radio broadcasters.

A station's over-the-air and internet-stream broadcasts are not guaranteed to be mirrors of each other.  This has been the case for a few years now, IIRC.

I think it is something to do with the Varsity Network contracts.

I couldn’t find the pre-game on Varsity. The Eagle doesn’t stream the game, just music. I tried Sirius 386 but I had an issue where the app doesn’t know I have 386. I went to the car and it was playing there. So some weirdness was definitely happening. 

 

I skipped the whole deal and went with the broadcast.

Yeah, but you can sync them together if both broadcasts allow you to pause and restart them where you want. 
Last week, the Varsity app was way ahead of ESPN+ and you couldn’t pause Varsity. 
I miss the days when you could stream KNTU. Never had a problem with that.

Since I live over 700 miles from Denton, streaming is my only option.

Varsity network has always been reliable but not this week unless you wanted to listen to SFA announcers.

But I was able to find a new way to listen. Below worked flawlessly.

I was finally able to find it on the Sirius app but it took quite a while. I believe it also ended up being at 396 on the app of course we were the one station where instead of showing the North Texas symbol like it did on other schools it just had a football helmet

I am not sure you are talking about the same thing I was.  I was referring to the same radio station's presence on-air and on internet: they aren't always the same.  KNTU is a great example: they used to have the game via Internet while their 88.1 FM presence - at the exact same time - was music/programming.

So, if we're talking about pre-game on the Eagle, make sure we are all on the same page regarding which Eagle broadcast we are referring to.

      And camps. Just from Twitter, people claim it’s highly attended, organized, and well run. At the very least, it gets kids on campus and further develops a relationship with the kid/families/coaches. He’s been a positive for UNT.

      Oregon State final thoughts -- game presentation, etc

      Unfortunately, I feel like pep bands all over the country are largely getting sidelined for the DJ music and "Let's make some noise!" kinda stuff. It's definitely not unique to NT.

      Oregon State final thoughts -- game presentation, etc

      Football season ticket holder here that normally starts going to b-ball games once the calendar flips to the new year & my schedule opens up. But since UNT is a #basketballschool now, starting earlier this year. First off, anyone agree with this assessment? When I go to football games I'm just waiting for the proverbial kick to the nuts in the second half. East Carolina was a perfect microcosm of this. Oh look! We're up 21-0!! What are we going to do to blow it? And sure enough, we do. Over and over again. With basketball, I feel the exact opposite. Whether it's Minnesota, Oregon State, etc, what are we going to do to win it? And more times than not, we do!! Clutch, clutch, clutch. Well done team! I love it. Really liked the game presentation too. The only thing I've noticed is it seems the pep band is getting less "air time" if that makes sense at the expense of giving the hype guy more exposure. Kinda an ass-whip if you ask me. "SOMEBODY MAKE SOME NOOIISE!!!!!", "EVERONE SCREAM HELL YEAH!!!!". We can be loud on our own without being told, thank you very much. It s almost like a warm-up act before he heads down to Dallas for his 2nd job at Baby Dolls. With that solid radio DJ voice he can then bark out "EVERYONE SCREAM HELL YEAH!! AND GIVE IT UP FOR DESTINY ON THE MAIN STAGE!!!!". Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about there. 🤣🤣 Happy Thanksgiving all and Go Mean Green!

      Is there a portal for coaches? Asking for a friend.

      The dislike for Coach O is incredible and this just shows what type of fans we truly have. His job is to get interaction with high school players and coaches and he's done a better job of that than anyone in the history of this school. His job is to get them looking at us and willing to talk to the school and that is happening.
