You guys need to get that **** done - FAST. I'm tired of Huskers/Texas baseball games not being shown around Houston, as was often the case when I was there. At least we here in Lincoln have our own statewide radio network for baseball.
 
Either the University or the Big 12 needs to get this done. I just finally upgraded to an HD package, and I can watch women's gymnastics, men's diving, women's basketball, and many other minor sports on the Big 10 network -- all in HD. Meanwhile, in the past month, Fox Sports Southwest has shown exactly one Mavericks game, no Stars games, and no Big 12 games in HD.

I had heard people complain about the lack of HD broadcasting in college sports, but I never contemplated how serious the problem was until I got HD myself.
 
HD is a teaser at this point in history. About 5% of the stuff I watch is in HD. I am tired of hearing how everything will be in HD in a year. Thats been said for 3 years now and I still have to watch non-HD games, at a national level.
 
Why hasn't the B12 acted on this already? Why do the B10, PAC10 and SEC figure this out, and the B12 doesn't? We have outstanding competition is baseball, football, basketball (Ws and Ms) softball, track, etc., but all the cable sports channels are showing me what happened in other conferences. What good is the B12 if it can't figure out how to manipulate a revenue stream and cultivate interest in the member schools on a nationwide basis?
