I have to ask... What the F is going on with the highlights this year? And how can we get whoever is in charge of that fired immediately?

Several home games there's been NO highlights package at all. Against Penn there was one where the highlights were completely out of order (they showed the final out mid-highlights, then showed the 6-7-8th innings). Now from yesterday's game one they show exactly ZERO runs scored in a 6-3 game. We scored 6 and if I hadn't gone back and read the box and the game thread I'd have no idea how we scored including Sorrells homer.

What kind of clown show is this? This isn't a one off, it's a consistent crap product for most of this season. There's no excuse for this.

This board has gone insane.

One poster accuses Trev of outright theft and now another wants someone, probably a student worker, to lose their job because of youtube post that wasn't edited in a way they see fit.

That's not even a first world problem. That's just BSC.

I'm sure the white knights will be along here shortly to tell me how I'm the unreasonable one here.

I've noticed the absolutely crappy highlights lately . Embarrassing. Sean's point is valid. Either make these attractive and valuable or don't make them.

I too have noticed a drop in the quality of highlights this year. Not sure why. Wheels is great on YouTube but doesn't do all of our games. Still worth a follow regardless!

Like I was watching the game one highlights and we were down 3-0… showed the two runners get on base but then the next clip it's tied 3-3…. Like why would u not show sorrels home run that tied it?!!!

They are terrible. They were bad last year too but this year they have gone to a whole new level

Entitlement is a helluva drug. Ask Texas.

I don't even watch the A&M Athletics ones anymore. I go straight to Wheels & hope he made one for that game

Could be using AI to make highlights.

I had this thought as well. The highlights from the first game yesterday didn't even have Sorrell's bomb. How do you miss that?

Probably just not as talented student workers in all likelihood. Just go to the baseball and athletics X or Facebook pages. They'll give you a lot of good clips.

Be the change you want to see. Video is out there. Make your own highlights. Share them here.

You would think with the rise of pages like Wheels, the ADs would start prioritizing highlights more on their own pages. There's definitely a market for it, Wheels gets 50k+ views on his videos a lot of the time.

Especially for a sport like baseball that has over 50 games. Having long form highlights so fans who weren't able to catch the game live could be up to speed would be a great option.

ESPN's college football page started doing this after independent YouTube creators were making long form highlights (10-20 min showing the beats of the game not just your typical 60 second Sportscenter highlight reel) and they get over 100k on almost all of them.

I think it was the Arizona state game or might have been the Virginia tech game but not only were they incomplete it was out of order..
