    The broadcast quality of Mediacom is roughly equal to the pixels on an Etch-a-sketch.

    Watching a game on a computer does not compare to watching a game on TV. They should be showing the games on actual TV as well. When I saw the schedule I was so happy that I have season tickets otherwise I would not be a happy camper.

    The quality I get from Cyclones.tv for VOLLEYBALL is better than the garbage we got on Mediacom Connections last year. Watching **** on that was like being stuck back in 1992.

    And with the beauty of having a TV less than 5 years old, I do watch it on TV. An HDMI output or WiDi isn't terribly difficult to figure out.

    You know you can connect your computer to a TV right?

    Good thing the stream is in HD and you can watch it on your TV via an HDMI cable...

    You realize that this is going to be the new thing for all schools that have their own 3rd tier network, right? KState has like 7 games on theirs during the non conference season.

    Having my computer downstairs and my TV in a completely different room they would not reach.

    Cyclones.tv isn't going to take over in conference games

    Perhaps it's just me, but outside of BYU, Iowa, and Cincinnati (games which will probably be aired on networks), I'm just not that interested in the nonconference slate. And most of the conference slate will probably be network-aired, or, at least, something I can pick up on ESPN3.

    It's a touch screen though. I'm sure I could find a way to get it connected to my TV I just feel like games should be on TV too.

    A 50 foot HDMI cable would set you back about $20.

    We will lose casual fans. My parents are not going to dink around with a computer broadcast. A Roku/Internet ready tv app may get them.
