Only Citadel and Furman are not televising their non d1 games. All other SoCon members are.

If it saves us money to use elsewhere in the Hoops budget its probably a good idea...
I think that is a big “IF”. Just can’t imagine it ccosting FU much if any. ESPN has a deal with the cinference if not the individual schools. ESPN gets money from sponsors. Just doubt FU is paying anything or much to have games on tv along with all the other schools.

I don't think that's the case, we spend to produce the games, the sponsorship revenue is very little...

We already have a much larger cost to cover this year that most seasons we don't have, renting Bon Secours Wellness Arena...
Bet we needed to cut some costs to cover some of that expense...

Not many people would be watching the Non-D1 games anyways...
