as a life-long, die-hard Hoosier fan, i grew up watching each and every IU basketball game. attending college in bloomington only intensified my school spirit and love for all things IU. so, imagine my disappointment when i moved to charlotte to discover ACC athletics took precedence, rarely getting a glimpse of my Hoosiers.
unfortunately, things weren't a whole lot better when i moved to chicago - no thanks to northwestern and the illini. in order to see most IU games, i would have to go to a bar to see them via satellite tv. that is, until the the greatness that is the big ten network came to be.
once the big ten network aired, nearly every single IU game was televised. if it wasn't on the BTN, it was on another cable channel. in order to get the BTN, i had to initially switch cable providers and go with one that carried the channel (and it was even included in the channel line-up free!). since then, i have rarely missed my IU Hoosiers! whether a saturday football game or an evening basketball game, my big ten network never fails me!
GO HOOSIERS!
