And in that case they will be compensated I am sure that $ can go back into the program

Linear broadcast rules are regular season only..which the schools themselves own the rights to...playoff rules arent changing

I would be willing to bet $ the fees the UIL pays to UT (568K) is more than what taxpayer benefits the UIL gets being a part of the UT system.... There are benefits to the UIL being part of UT but its not reflected on the most recent financials publicly available [Hidden Content]

Even then, a lot of times arrangements arent made until after lunch Sat or later...I guess I should be glad people care but people were legit mad in my email lol

I know PNG has an amazing student led broadcast...they are able to still stream most rounds unless its one of the 4 exclusive games....I think they do have some ads in the regular season but they just don't run them in the playoffs

My guess is LaPorte wanted Thur...being a heavy favorite they are likely wanting an extra day to prepare for the second round

The vast majority of activities the UIL provides loses money...band is one of them...doesn't make them less important but they lose money they don't make money. Revenue from football a lot of times supports all the other great things the UIL provides for all students from sports, to fine arts, to academics etc

The school can broadcast the game...unless its changed if its a true academic broadcast that's ad free they have the ability to do so... If they sell ads then its not an academic broadcast and would have to broadcast on NFHS where they'd be compensated

Thanks for watching A point of clarity the UIL doesn't receive taxpayer dollars...their financial reports are public record The League's sources of income are: membership dues; participation fees; contest fees; open records productions; publication sales; the admission price for state level cross-country, swimming and diving, tennis, wrestling and one-act play contests; an annually determined percentage of admission prices for state level baseball, basketball, soccer, volleyball, and marching band contests; an annually determined percentage of football and basketball post district gate receipts; proceeds from radio and television broadcasting and telecasting contracts; as well as proceeds from sponsorships and advertising.

Playoff streaming rights are complicated lol We will have 4 exclusive games a week on DCTX and a bunch of other games that will also be streamed to NFHS....NFHS will also have a lot of games we won't have

Thanks
