Men Host Portland tonight

This Las Vegas Classic schedule is throwing me off.. There is a game tonight at Butler Hancock that has no ties to the tournament as we host the University of Portland (West Coast Conference, otherwise known as Gonzaga's Conference). The Pilots are 5-3 on the season. Including 0-2 against the Big Sky. They appear to be a solid team, their wins are: Washington Yale, UC Davis, Nevada and Idaho. With losses to Portland State, Eastern Washington, and BYU.

Some other random facts about this school: Small, Private, Catholic school with enrollment of about 3200. Established in 1901.

Tip-off at 7 at Butler Hancock.. go bears.!
 
I'm assuming Big Sky TV? If so I'll be watching on there so Troy give us a shout out and wave to the camera.

Ya, BigSkyTV.. it starts 30 minutes after the womens game ends so it probably wont be quite at 7:00.

It popped up and showed about 10 seconds of warm-ups and then it's going kind of bonkers.
 
This is a really nice win by the Bears. A good litmus test against a team similar in quality to the Big Sky opponents.
 
Good win! I realy enjoyed hearing the Mexican radio station in the background! Really, I felt like I was back home in Colorado! I think the KFKA feed was picking up a station from somewhere. :D
 
Was that mexican radio in the background? I kept thinking I was hearing faint music but couldn't figure out where it was coming from. :lol:

Glad to get the win, it was a little tight there at the end but we held them off. I always think we shoot bad but looking at the stats we did pretty well.

I wonder if we'll sign someone else for next year now with an open scholarship?
 
The BigSkyTV audio for men's games is coming off a radio. It obviously didn't get tuned completely back into place.

And the answer to the scholarship question is yes, there are plans to sign someone else.

But, then again, I don't know anything. I'm just a honk for the department.
 
Another signing, good to hear.

And are you saying they literally hold the microphone up to an actual radio? :lol:

I'm not a tech person maybe that's the only way to sync it with the streaming video but that is crazy if so. :shock:

Thanks for putting up with us Troy. Most of us appreciate the "insider" information we get from you.
 
Blo, not quite a mic in front of a radio. Line output off the back of a receiver for a component stereo setup. Radio Shack for years made a model that had tuning that was impeccable, even on AM, and I've gotten my hands on a few for various uses over the years.

If you think you heard a lot of the Mexican station with the tuning the way it was, it would have been worse with a lot of AM radios on the market today. :evil:
