It seems very fan unfriendly. Many changes including no ad were supposed to make the game more fan friendly and more TV friendly. However, in the ACCs, ESPN televised the Wake Forest 4-0 blowout of GT but not a minute of the dramatic UVA-UNC 4-3 match. As well, college tennis fans that have traveled comsiderable distances can only watch one match instead of both. Yes, I guess it's "fairer" to the teams, but it's unfair for the fans. They used to stagger the NCAA semis so at least you could watch part of both matches. Most college tennis fans want to watch more high level tennis not less. This is a shame and fan unfriendly. Could you imagine the basketball Final Four or even something like soccer scheduling the semis at the exact same time?? Of course not. It's fan unfriendly. So is this type of scheduling. But thank God for no-ad to make things more fan friendly and palatable for TV. <br /><br />Go Hoos!noreply@blogger.com
