Really...how is this fair to other schools - new hires or not wth!?!?

Violate NCAA rules but hire a new coach get all kinds of perks....wow!

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Ohio State sought and received a waiver from the NCAA that allows it to have two football coaching staffs at the same time: One under Luke Fickell to coach the Buckeyes in their upcoming bowl game and another led by incoming coach Urban Meyer that only handles recruiting.
Athletic director Gene Smith called the split staffs "normal in some transitions."
The Buckeyes play Florida in the TaxSlayer.com Gator Bowl on Jan. 2. But Meyer and any new staffers are not permitted to coach any players and can only recruit. The NCAA waiver specifies that no more than 10 coaches -- and no more than seven at any one time -- may be involved in recruiting.
There have been rumblings from other schools that the waiver gives Ohio State a competitive advantage.

I don't agree with it but I'm at no point "crying" over the whole ordeal cause they could bring in 4 coaching staffs, I don't think it would improve the image that is already trashed of OSU in my eyes. They let a bunch of liars play in last years bowl game and shouldn't have - end of story, moving on.

what?? really? Pryor didn't promise to return the following year and sit out his required games in order to play in the bowl game? LMAO really you want to ignore that?

Ohh and again I'm not crying about the coaching staff stuff but ya know these guys are big time coaches and are not crying either...raising a good point I say.

Michigan coach Brady Hoke was asked about the coaches waiver on Friday.
"It's different. That would be my reaction. I've never heard of it," he said. "Is that an advantage? Yeah, I think so."
Later Friday, Illinois introduced new coach Tim Beckman, a former assistant at Ohio State. He revealed that Illinois has also requested a coaches waiver to help during the transition.
"I knew that was going on," Beckman said. "I think it's just something that we're gonna try to do right now so that we have that same advantage that they do."

Pryor DID sit out ... he sat out just like the rest of the guys, 5 games.

They were all coming back had Tressel still been theree, once he resigned, I see no reason for him to stick around.

Fwiw, I think Possey should have gone into the NFL Reg. Draft and he probably would have had the NCAA held up thier end of the bargain, had he know then that he would have to forfeit 10 games I'm sure he would have went.

He's a VERY good recvr, someone in the NFL will be very happy.

NO HE DID NOT!!! He played the Bowl game when he shouldn't have after promising he would remain at OSU and sit out 5 games... he announced he was leaving OSU around June7th 2011 BEFORE SEASON EVEN STARTED!!!

Terrelle Pryor announces end of his Ohio State playing career

Terrelle Pryor announced through his attorney Tuesday that he will not play again for Ohio State.
"In the best interest of my teammates, I have made the decision to forgo my senior year of football at The Ohio State University," Pryor said in statement released by Larry James.


No I don't care if he sat out during the NFL or not he lied and did not remain with OSU and sit out 5 games of the season...he is a liar and a quitter - The lying of him alone proves OSU got a free ride to a Bowl game more deserving of other players that didn't violate NCAA rules and that of another team that didn't have NCAA violators on it.

You can argue this all you want but buddy that's the TRUTH!

Hey dude, relax, your gonna blow a vein.

The deal with the Sugar Bowl was set up with the Sugar Bowl officials NOT the university, the Sugar Bowl wanted them to play in the game, thats why they played, without those 5 playing the game would not have drawn and would not have been a very interesting game, the Sugar Bowl knew this, just like everyone else.

The school had nothing to do with this.

As for Pryor, WHY would he stay in school and why would he be required to stay, he promised Tressel that he would come back, when Tressel went, why would the player stay, it was an agreement with the Coach, not the school.

If I'm not mistaken, the NFL even got into it, an unprecidented move by them to ensure that Pryor would sit out the same amount of time that the other players did, otherwise there would be NO reason for Pryor to not be ready for opening night.

You keep spouting things that you think you KNOW, but you really don't, you have NO insight to the Buckeyes, other than your jealousy.

Go ahead Rey.
dvrexpander
Bottom line is he Lied - he told Tressel he would stay with OSU and take the 5 game suspension the following year if allowed to play the Bowl game. Had he and the others not been allowed to play then I truly believe they wouldn't have won that game had those players been punished like they should have been THEN not later.

On July 8, 2011, Ohio State University decided to vacate all victories from the 2010 football season as self-imposed punishment for major NCAA violations

As you see here they vacated all of them anyway but that doesn't matter - those teams they played LOST and have a LOSS next to their names and could have gone on to better things. NCAA needs to get the move on and punish them NOW not after they play this years bowl game.

Go ahead Rey.


Now this whole conversation I'm making here ties right into this thread - I was the one that created it... OSU is trying to get a advantage now as they used broken promises then and Tressel at that point was just as much a voice of OSU as the school itself. I'm following right along with the spirit of the discussion - if you wish to stop discussing it please do so at any time.

You keep spouting things that you think you KNOW, but you really don't, you have NO insight to the Buckeyes, other than your jealousy.

LMAO keep dreaming... I'm not jealous at all of OSU, but you seem to think you know everything about VT so why can't I play the book keeper for a change..something wrong with that?

Show me where I ever said I knew anything about Va Tech.

You simply REFUSE to listen to anyone about the OSU situation other than your OWN opinion.

We all can give you all the facts in the world and you wouldn't believe them.

I posted two TWO count them links of facts.... LOL I mean wth man... I expressed my OWN opinion along side two BIG NAMED Coaches that felt the same way about the current situation of OSU getting some sort of an advantage with this double coach staff. I'm not going along with anything more than what was said by top names.. by good coaches and for good reason.... For some reason my opinion just doesn't seem to matter to "WE" as you put it.

As for VT - well I get this impression on every time the team name comes up - as said in another thread I take a lot of flack for being the resident fan of the team but IMO (which doesn't seem to matter) hurts valid discussions.

I really just don't know what to say to you anymore ..I get this feeling everytime I have to type something up

Sorry, I missed the post that other coaches decided it was illegal and gave the Bucks an unfair advantage... not sure how they gain an advantage, is Fickell calling Urban at home for the plays now ?

While one set of coaches manages current team another is out recruiting - other teams can't do this

While one set of coaches practices and takes care of team another is out recruiting - other teams can't do this

I mean I could go on with this sorta situation - I'm sure coaches those of which know the game better than I do and have already been outspoken about it could say more - more than myself or anyone here could based on experience. NCAA is just taking its sweet time with punishment of the team but are quick to give a waiver for this sorta instance... amazing.

I didn't see anything about illegal - but considering the NCAA IS the law for CFB and so far not been very fast,fair or open minded lately, even if illegal in their book they would just turn the page.

But Nice try on Fickell having Urban on speed dial.... maybe they are texting instead?

Due to security concerns and the fact that the Tapatalk Plugin for Xenforo is no longer being updated we have removed Tapatalk support from SatelliteGuys.

For those who were using it we recommend using our PWA App instead which is faster and does not have all the spam Tapatalk had. Below is a graphic showing how to add SatelliteGuys to your devices home screen. (While iOS is shown the process is mostly the same for Android.)

What is PWA app? PWA utilities seem to be a Spanish app. I hope you are seeing this since nothing seems to be working. I will miss SatelliteGuys. Tapatalk worked well. The Siri browser doesn't seem to work well.

I have had good experiences with Brave but lately I am frustrated with it.

Now when I launch the app it shows a box at the bottom asking if I want to go back to the last opened page. It is in conveniently located and I would prefer to eliminate it.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Please let's not sidetrack the discussion into an exploration of why I don't care for it or a lecture about all the wonderful aspects of the feature. I just do not care for it.

I don't have an Android phone so I don't know if this will apply to the Brave settings on your android device but it works on the desktop for me.

Change this setting to either startup to a different website or a new tab page. I have mine set to open to google.com instead of where I left off and it doesn't ask me at the next startup if I want to open the last opened page unless it crashed.

Thank you for trying to help. However thrse choices do not appear in Android. There is a setting for "New Tab Pages" that is similar but does not include your choice. I have tried all of the existing entries with no success

Hello everyone.

I am new here and I done a search on MLB Extra Innings and DISH and it led me to this forum and so I signed up and hopefully someone can help me out with some issues.

First off, I am a DISH Outdoors customer and I signed up for service back in late October of 2025. I have a Wally HD Receiver and I am using the DISH Playmaker OS 2.1 as my Antenna that operates on 110 and 119 Western Arc and Alternative 61.5, 110, and 119 satellites. I signed up for MLB Extra Innings back in March before the season began. I was excited to be able to watch MLB Extra Innings because I love baseball and I use to have MLB Extra Innings on Satellite DIRECTV back in 2001-2004 and on Satellite DISH back in 2016 and 2017.

I was a bit disappointed when I found out that it is actually MLB.TV Simulcasted to DISH Satellite (More on that later) Anyways I have been watching faithfully almost every night however about a week ago there was a problem. When I went to go to the game to watch a game the game wouldn't come in an I would send a refresh signal to my receiver and then I could watch the programming and when I went to switch games at that games appointed time slot my Wally HD Receiver who lockup where I couldn't change any channels or view the guide and it would reboot. The next night when I turned to a game at game start it still had the background it shows before the game started and again send a refresh signal and went though this same thing over and over. I added a movie channel to my lineup and had issues with showing up my Dish Wally HD Receiver.

With an investigation after several calls with DISH Support it was determined that by going to the diagnostics screen that I had a issue with my Tuner because any changes that I made to my programming these changes would not take affect on the Wally HD Receiver. In other words that Wally HD Receiver was toast!

I too had reported MLB Extra Innings issue to DISH and they created a ticket for it and said that someone would investigate the issue. I too took notice that under MyDISH account under MLB Extra Innings always before it would show that I was subscribed and on auto-renew. Now it shows nothing and even after logging out and deleting my User Name and Password so that I can see it in guest mode it too doesn't even list a price and option for purchase as does the now WNBA League Pass.

After my DISH Receiver was ruined I had to buy a new Wally HD Receiver. I took advantage an bought 2 HD Wally's and added them both to my account. I called back to remove the old box off of the account and was told it was linked to MLB Extra Innings and the advanced technical support team said there was a glitch with MLB Extra Innings and hope to have a resolution in a couple of days and I could call back in to then to remove the box. But both the 2 new Wally HD Receivers are activated on my account. I asked them what the problem was with MLB Extra Innings and how long it would be and I was told there was a glitch as I asked to specify what they meant and got no answer. I again went and checked the MyDISH account page under the MLB Extra Innings page and it still doesn't list me as subscribed and after logging out and deleting my User Name and Password so I could it see it as a guest mode and it still doesn't list the price and option for purchase as it does for the WNBA League Pass.

I am afraid to boot up these boxes and go through the activation screen process because of the issues with the MLB Extra Innings in fear it will do the same or mess up my boxes from being able to receive MLB Extra Inning because or any other programing because I was told that MLB Extra Innings wouldn't come in on those new box because it was activated with the Wally that is ruined and it needs removed first.

Now I have no DISH service going on a week and miss my MLB Extra Innings when the races are just heating up and now with two boxes activated I can't boot up because I am afraid it will mess them up and I will be out the $180.00 or so dollars I made in purchase on the receivers.

Is anyone else experiencing issues with their MLB Extra Innings and does anyone really know what this so called glitch actually is? I can't seem to get a clear answer from anybody and don't even know if it will even be fixed or anyone really understands it.

Now to my previous statement on how I was disappointed that MLB Extra Innings is actually MLB.TV in simulcast. When I had MLB Extra Innings before with DIRECTV in 2001-2004 and with DISH form 2016 and 2017. They would always show the commercials for every teams broadcast from their local market and all games would be authentic just as if you were watching in their home market. After I quit DISH I went to streaming for awhile and I done MLB.TV and I hated their features because of the no commercials, the delayed times of getting back after the commercial break, and not being able to listen to what studios had to say when they would cut into the studios, and always looking at the screen during commercial breaks with a screen that says commercial break in progress and a silhouette background of MLB Players doing baseball things and the their crazy commercial breaks sound. I was excited to go back to DISH thinking I escaped the horrors of MLB.TV. Well its actually the same thing. I compared them side by side and actually MLB.TV is ahead by just a few seconds. So actually MLB Extra Innings on Satellite is delayed from time period wise from actually watching MLB.TV which shows it is simulcasted. My question is when did this start? And is this legal? This isn't what I know MLB Extra Innings to be. I too had signed up for NHL Center Ice this past winter and thank goodness its authentic! They still have the commercials and its like watching it as you were in their home network and its the way it oughta be even if you only do get one feed of NHL Center Ice per team on DISH and don't know which feed it is every night.

Looking forward to your responses. So far happy with DISH but unhappy with this last week and the ruining of a Wally HD Receiver.

I hope I can be of some contribution here as well.

Sincerely,

RJ T.

I know they are doing some major satellite work - the second satellite at 110 which is now in use, and they are moving channels between 119 and 110. Maybe since there are no other sports going on, have they temporarily cut back on the out of market sports packages? I am not sure. It looks like those channels are all coming from 119 TP 13, 110 TP 12, and 110 TP 09.

Also, Dish's Scheduled Satellite Maintenance page doesn't have anything going on:

Trying to get use to this forum and where everything is located at. I saw you responded from my post on the changes and took me a while to get back to see this post. But yes, it is exactly what I was thinking. I too noticed the change of MLB Extra Innings from 110 to 119. Because of 30 teams they have to algin everything. Only other sport going on PPV wise is WNBA League Pass and I do not have a subscription to that but maybe some else who has it can confirm what they done and what satellite and transponders they are on.

This is a big shift for DISH. I just hope if Charlie Ergen does ever sell out to anyone that I can continue to use my DISH Playmaker and I can keep my Wally's. If its anything like what happened to DIRECTV a few years back which turned out to be a total disaster when AT&T acquired DIRECTV nothing there changed with boxes or anything and you continued to use the same service but I was very surprised to see AT&T sell it to TPG especially after they had just bought it now long ago.

Update on MLB Extra Innings as of 5:50 P.M. CDT June 10, 2026...

I am getting tired of not being able to watch any baseball games and having paid for MLB Extra Innings and not knowing what the reason is I called dish back at 1-800-333-3474. I guess after all of my calls my call was routed to the Advanced Technical Support Team. I had something happen that I never knew they could do and they gained access into my Wally Receiver. I was told settings look good and right now on the only channel that shows is the MLB1 Baltimore Orioles Channel. They are playing the at home against the Seattle Mariners right now. She was able to access to that channel which prompted a purchase a Rent option. That signaled a red flag to her right away. She escalated a ticket with photographs and info from my screen to the top tier advanced programing technical department and told me they received the ticket and are reviewing it now. They got back to her and said they would have information within 30 minutes. I either get the channels within 30 minutes or I am to call back and they will advance from there. Seems like maybe my persistence is paying off. I will keep you informed. Maybe we can all have a resolution to this shortly.

They got back to her and said they would have information within 30 minutes. I either get the channels within 30 minutes or I am to call back and they will advance from there. Seems like maybe my persistence is paying off. I will keep you informed. Maybe we can all have a resolution to this shortly.

Update on MLB Extra Innings as of 5:50 P.M. CDT June 10, 2026...

I am getting tired of not being able to watch any baseball games and having paid for MLB Extra Innings and not knowing what the reason is I called dish back at 1-800-333-3474. I guess after all of my calls my call was routed to the Advanced Technical Support Team. I had something happen that I never knew they could do and they gained access into my Wally Receiver. I was told settings look good and right now on the only channel that shows is the MLB1 Baltimore Orioles Channel. They are playing the at home against the Seattle Mariners right now.

Final Update... As of 8:08 P.M. CDT June 10, 2026.

I now have MLB Extra Innings back! Look at the photo! (I did not include full image of the game due to copyright)

Let me just say it was rough! Very rough! And lets just say Charlie Ergen should be ashamed of his customer service team and how they handled this whole issue.

After multiple calls after my last post only to get the run around with answers like there are no refunds on MLB Extra Innings once the season starts, to they are working on it, to accessing my screen and sending multi hits to the box.

All I asked was one simple question remove the MLB Extra Innings which they confirmed I had and reauthorize free of charge. I was given a 1,000 reasons why this couldn't be done.

Well..........

I paid for it myself.... $120.00 current rate and it works!

I called back in to let them know what I done and what I thought of the customer service and told them I needed refunded. I was told they didn't do refunds....

Well again I called back and got someone who refunded the original payment of $150.00 back to my account. A $30 discount for all the hard trouble I went though.

It is now up to you all out there that have MLB Extra Innings to try to get them to do this but I am afraid you are going to have to take your own action and purchase again and beg for a refund or be out the $150.00 originally paid.

Persistence pays off. I don't give up very easily.

You can all go here below to make the purchase if you have any trouble.


I hope it all works well for you! And best of luck to everyone who has it!

I will still be around on this forum. You all sound like a fine group of people! I hope I can contribute more.

Take care!

Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!

So let the game continue!

The last song was added by Bobby who posted...

One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters

CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!

Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game

Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.

Example:

Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow

Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio

Another example:

Ride the Lightning -- Metallica

Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne


Get it?


An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....

I was bewildered with all the new DISH TV "Bonus View" channels, so I put together a web page table with all the info I could find. It's at:

https://anythingpeaceful.org/dishtv/DISH_TV_Bonus_View_Channels.html

Here's a partial screenshot of the table, as sorted by Channel Name. (You can click on a column header to sort.)

One added, one removed. But I think it's really only a name change, with similar (or identical?) programming.
