Texas game is on the Longhorn Network

[Cycsk]

I stopped at the local Mediacom office in Ames. They said they have no way of offering the Longhorn Network.

 

[AlaCyclone]

That is no longer true, Direct dropped the LHN last year, and you have to pay for it apart from the cost of the sports package. I have had the sports package for years, and last season it would not allow me to watch the game.

Just switched to channel 677, and I have the Longhorn Network. Maybe I called the sports package the wrong thing, but the LHN is available on DirecTV.

Last time the game was available on ESPN3 somehow

Asking for a friend. Is it illegal to utilize a 3rd party stream or is it only illegal to be the host of that stream?

Things are only illegal if you get caught.

Texas can’t leave this conference soon enough.

It does until those douchebags leave.

And the hornsdown wonder why we don't like them? They can't leave fast enough. Not wishing them any success in the SEC. They can take their money and run, as if they needed any more of it.

I'll just listen to John and Eric. I don't usually watch replays on cyclone.tv, but I wonder if they will have it there 2 days later, like all the other games (replay)(BB that is)? If not, just another reason to hate on te$as!

You might want to actually go on there and try to watch something, I just went and tried to watch the game on the Longhorn net going on live right now...Softball. Shows I have it etc. But as soon as I click on it to watch it, it comes up...NOT PART OF TV PACKAGE

So anyone thinking they have it, might want to test it.

I did before I posted that. I ass u me nothing.

 

[cydsho]

John and Eric then. I'm not doing anything special to give that network my viewership.

Serious question, has anyone emailed Pollard?

Too busy putting the hammer down on club teams.

How do we keep getting screwed and end up on LHN?

How can those of us that don’t have that network still watch the game?

Go to your local gamewatch. If there isn’t one, host an unofficial one and invite your friends on Facebook.

Pretty sure as long as you aren't recording, it's only illegal to host.

I can’t imagine there are any legal ramifications for accessing an illegal stream. Like you say, the person providing the stream is the one violating various laws and copyrights, not the viewer, necessarily.

The risk of course is always the potential malware and outside access to your systems that some of these illegal streams engage in, so that’s where you need to be careful.

I am not a lawyer, but I do have one in the family (although this is absolutely not his area of expertise), so take whatever I say with enough grains of salt to cover my opinion.

You canNOT watch the game anywhere else...I WILL BE SO DAMMED GLAD WHEN TEXAS AND OKLAHOMA LEAVE THE BIG 12!!
These 2 schools have screwed up the big 12 and it will take years to get us back to where we need to be..IN MY HUMBLE OPINION!

 

[CyBobby]

The one time I paid for the Longhorn Network, Brock Purdy's freshman year for that football game, was one of the worst sports broadcasts I've ever seen. Actually and honestly considering not watching and just catching the radio feed

I AGREE...CoKand...I will be listening to J & E also!

I just tried it, like I said before I have the Sports Pack, it came up with how to order the channel page.

 

[isutrevman]

Don't give those crooks a cent. Don't watch.

Radio, or check the score after it's over.

Interesting! Do you get SEC Network, ACC Network and B1G Network?

I still get the SEC and B10 networks, have not tried the ACC Network, but a lot of their games are on the other sports pack channels. Tried again and the LHN does not come up, says I can order it.

That's just odd! I've had DirecTV since 2019. Do not know why I get it, and you do not. Maybe LHN was granfathered in or something like that? Bummer that you do not get it with your package (in order to see the ISU game).
