Congrats on the ESPN3 broadcasts. Not so sure that Monmouth and Mercer are the only FCS schools with ESPN3 production agreements, but the more, the better!

The article says "Currently the list of universities with similar agreements in place includes members of the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC), St. John’s University and the Atlantic Sun Conference" so conceivably could include Jacksonville and Stetson, but not likely.

I personally really like ESPN3 broadcasts, I know that all NDSU home games are on ESPN3 this year again, and I've yet to have issues with it. If you have the WatchESPN App + Chromecast it pretty much doesn't even seem like it's an internet feed other than the same crappy commercials all the time.

You are exactly right, outside of the same rotation of commercials you would never know you weren't just watching regular television (I watch via Roku3). I had posted a picture to my facebook page of friends over watching Chattanooga at Central Michigan on the big screen and I had two different people ask "what channel is the game on?"

With that kind of quality, I honestly don't care if the game is on "real TV" or not...as long as it is on. Another decade or so and you will probably be able to watch every single college football game, every weekend, on this kind of platform.

I'm sure the Monmouth story forgot their November 8th game at Liberty where all of our games are carried on ESPN3.

Very nice agreement for the Monmouth faithful. Congrats!
