It we emailed today. I know many people were not happy with the 6pm weeknight tip-offs.and skipped many games because of it. This is your chance to let them know.

Yeah 6 is way too early. At the earliest it should be 6:30 or just at 7. Hard to get off work and beat the traffic to make it in time for a 6pm start. I live in Lake Charles and missed the first 30 minutes of the Houston game because it started at 6.

I don't particularly like it either but ESPN is making that call and it's not changing unless they want it to change. They want the 6:00, 8:00 double headers.

ESPN didn't make that call Tulane did. Those games were on ESPN+.

I didn’t get season tickets this go around because of the 6pm tip-off time. I’d have to miss the first half for most of the games. So I wasn’t surveyed since I passed on season tickets.

1900 (7:00 PM) would be a better time for me.
