Skyline Sports — Sacramento State

Greetings Hornets fans,

This is Colter Nuanez. I am the director of creativity and senior writer for Skyline Sports (skylinesportsmt.com), a new newspaper-style online publication covering the Big Sky Conference. I've covered the league as a newspaper sportswriter since 2006.

We will have beat reporting on both Montana schools along with weekly podcasts and features about the rest of the league. I just wanted to introduce myself and let you know I'll be providing Sacramento State stories this season.

Our goal is to be able to cover the entire league with the same prevalence as we give to the flagship schools. Any interest we can get going at Sac State would be a huge plus. Thanks for reading, nice to meet you and don't hesitate to drop a line with comments or questions.

Spot on article.

Enjoy Skyline Sports.

Very well done.

Would be great for Sac State fans and all college sports fans in CA to watch Big Sky football but we are excluded from a conference we have been a member of for 20 years.

Makes no sense that the Big Sky powers to be does not want to bring Big Sky games to California TV sets. Sacramento is the 20th largest media market in America and CA is the biggest state with nearly 40 million, about 39 million more people and TV sets than the state of Montana. What gives?

Seems like the Big Sky would be putting tons of energy to bringing Big Sky games to California TV sets where the profile of the conference would explode. And the conference has 3 football playing schools in CA ?????

The Big Sky is the conference of the heart of the American West?

Really?

And the biggest school in the conference (Sac State at 30K enrollment and hundreds of thousands of alum) and a huge media market have to listen to this weeks game from the tiny town where they play at MSU on the radio as the only option?

Why is the Big Sky not taking advantage of it's huge football pressnse in the Big Sky with Sac State, Davis and Cal Poly?

Baffling and sad.

Do you not get ROOT Sports in Sacramento? If so, that is a huge oversight by both parties. With a regional TV deal like the ROOT deal, to not capitalize on California is crazy.
