So until some of the lessor programs take off in popularity, the Networks, as well as the schools, will continue to throw those programs in the low priority pile. While that frustrates me, it is basic economics, so I understand it.I'll say this, at least some of the lessor programs are getting some attention and being broadcast. 20 years ago, the only way you saw a Woman's Volleyball or Hockey game, was to attend it in person. Heck, I remember when Badger football wasn't on TV, unless it was a huge game.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is the problem. WCHA games get dumped into two categories separate from BTN because they aren't associated with the Big Ten. It's separated by this issue and therefore TV broadcasts. Then they go any direction they want from there. The NCAA officials have staged categorically that the right call was made in both instances. This goes beyond the officials on the ice. They've said that there was absolutely no misinterpretation of the rules, or the calls themselves.</blockquote>
