This was produced by Hogs plus. OSU Max is under the same company that Hogs plus is. Maybe some insight on their Twitter account to what we could be seeing.
If used correctly and like some of said timely. This could be a really cool thing for Oklahoma States brand nationally. IMO Also, The recruiting thing would be cool. Like give them a username and password and just say go watch and see what we are about. It could be used for all sports in that way.
I hope it doesn’t hurt PFB+ because I think PFB+ has really taken off well the last few years from a user experience. I think PFB+ sort of has a different platform than OSU Max. OSU max will be all audiovisual, whereas PFB+ is still mostly article based. I really like reading content because I’m a fast reader. It’s a lot faster to read Marshall’s transcriptions of the Gundy pressers than watch the entire 25 minutes video, itself to hear the same thing. OSU max sounds cool but not sure I’d make the time to watch all the extra stuff when I get the same scoop here more quickly.
I joked with the OSU spokesperson who called me about it, but I don’t think it’ll hurt anything drastically. We provide different services even if they are in the same area. A rising tide raises all boats … or whatever the saying is.
Will maybe a few subs drop off? Sure, but we’ve been doing well.
Yesss this. I wasn’t able to watch the semi-final last year and had to just check updates. One minute we were up in like 4 of the matches, and next thing I know I update the tournament status and we had lost the whole thing. I had no idea what happened out there to cause such a swing in the lead
OSU Max sounds like a better deal than ESPN+ which I only use for OSU non-con football and non-con basketball. That’s why I’m on a monthly ESPN+ subscription. Once the Big12 basketball starts, the need for ESPN+ goes away (for me anyway) until non-con football in September. It’s nominal savings that would almost pay for the OSU max subscription.
Darn it. Thanks for the heads up. I hadn’t checked the Big12 basketball TV schedule yet. I had tentatively marked on my calendar to drop ESPN+ in January, but now I’ll have to go check the schedule myself. I literally only use ESPN+ for OSU games since the other ESPN channels are part of my standard YouTubeTV package.
