We Apologize For the Technical Difficulties


For those of you who were listening in last night, you may have noticed that our much-ballyhooed (underrated word) postgame interview with assistant coach Daron Park kinda didn't happen on-air. No, we weren't pulling your legs; it was simply a case of our connection dying at the absolute worst time. According to Hal DeCoursey, who was back in College Park in the studio (high above the South Campus Dining Hall!), it went out right as we were starting to go into the interview. Ain't technology great?

The worst part about this is that our hands are somewhat tied in the situation. We didn't notice the connection had gone out until after the interview was over, but even if we had, we still would have had to go on without being on the air, due to an NCAA regulation that strictly limits the amount of time the media gets with the coaches and players immediately after a game.

Luckily for you all though, we make a point of recording every single broadcast, and Saturday's game was no exception. The never-before-heard audio from the interview is available on the front page or, for those of you feeling particularly lazy, can be heard here.

As much as I'd love to talk more, it's nearly 1:30 a.m. here on the left coast, and since neither Scott nor myself has completely adjusted to the time change yet, it still kinda feels like nearly 4:30 a.m. We'll be back with you all tomorrow.
