What's this?

I was excited about the ACCN, but

I’m disappointed in the lack of live sports content. There are too many reruns of their talk shows and replays of old football games, but not enough live games or replays of recent non-revenue sports (soccer, for example). I somehow imagined that I’d have the opportunity to catch a Tech event every week or so. I thought the point of constructing a studio at each campus would provide more exposure beyond football. Maybe I’m just missing them and I need a notification that something Hokie is airing?
