+1 great pics! Awesome! Thank you

Here's an archived UC Riverside basketball game.

UCSB has an even better model to replicate. Looks smoother, they provide interviews and ads:

Riverside can do it, and we can't?!?!

Looking at this kind of exposure, there's no doubt in my mind, Jim Les has been at a disadvantage in recruiting - even compared to BW teams. No audio, video that only sometimes works, no interviews, and often half empty stands. After a tournament season.

Survived a scare there. Gotta give it to the Hornets. All records aside, they came in with a game plan and battled. We have a lot to learn from this game. Bertsch continues to look like an elite level player.

It doesn’t or at least didn’t yesterday. This seems like low hanging fruit. Is it that difficult to find a techie to tie radio into stream and sync it? I don’t know, but it seems very doable.

The radio broadcasts are solid and they’re already doing the work. Plus you can tell advertisers you have a larger audience size.

If you’re a recruit and you’re watching our current setup, you’re not impressed.

Let’s gooo

16-0 run?!

Wow. What a comeback!

is the stream working for everyone?

ya I think you're right

Boise St and SDSU nearly joined Hawaii in the BW a couple yrs ago. We just went from that to Bakersfield.

ya Bertsch is something else. She’s got great footwork, finesse and seems to be able to efficiently score off either hand on either side. Not to mention her height. I’m really looking forward to the St. Mary’s and Oregon St games to see how they handle her.

Playing well. We’re small but gritty. Schneider quick and crafty penetrating thru their zone. Chima causing problems inside

Decent game, but way too careless with the ball. With Morgan in, this team is a completely different animal. She's going to cause mismatches in every game. Nina Bessolo may emerge as another star this year. Good basketball IQ. On a side note, looks like Jennifer Gross made a point to give the reserves more time at the cost of blowing the game wide open- smart move at this point in the season. Tough to complain with a 26 point road victory, but this team still has a lot they can still improve on and would love to see it live up to its potential.

My concern for this senior laden team is the talent they will face most of the year won’t allow them to prepare for the elite teams. OSU is the only top 25 team they’ll face all year. That will be a good measuring stick. And the crazy thing is it’s entirely possible they’ll have a fighting chance. I think for a team of this quality you can’t be happy just making the tournament, so seeding is important. Winning definitively every game (or almost every game) can help resume. No guarantee they’ll make it, but setting the bar at just making the dance is too low imo. This team has stars, coaching, depth, experience, athleticism...

This team is special. A 32 point road win against a respectable team. Wow! Athletic, good ball movement, well coached with star players. Dangerous combo. Bertsch is dominant inside on offense and was super active getting blocks on defense. Her 6'4" frame combined w moves, footwork, finesse is going to be tough to stop. Opens things up for the others. Gianotti and Nagel were superb and bring their senior leadership to this squad. Going to be an exciting season!

I'll take it, but we had a complete meltdown towards the end of the game. No help on defense, poor ball movement, turnovers. This team definitely has it's work cut out. But no doubt good pieces, gritty defense and a star player. Shorts, Siler, Chima, AJ John, Goode. Not a bad core. Will be interesting to see how the team develops. So far two road wins coming off a tournament season.

Well I think BW is the best (non-football) conference for us - at least as long as we plan to be an FCS team. I would say teams like UCSB, Cal Poly, UCI, Hawaii, Beach have more appeal than Montana, Idaho, Portland St, etc. Why? Academics, California rivalries, our friends go there, etc. The added bonus is reasonable travel costs in the BW.

Now hypothetically if we go FBS and you put us in the same conference as Nevada, UNLV, SDSU, Boise, maybe we reconsider for all sports due to the jump in competition to increase our profile. But even then, Hawaii prefers to stay in the BW for non-football sports- probably for travel costs. Just some food for thought.
