videoing an opposing teams sideline is a ncca and sec rule violation first and foremost.


So, what, are they going to put ESPN on probation?

The guy is holding the mic with two hands what's he recording with and why?



Sounds? Because this isn't the 1910s anymore, and people want sound?

quote:


So we're to believe he just happened to catch that particular video and nothing more, come on?


Why do you think that that was the only thing that captured on video?

quote:

Again what is the reasoning for videoing anything?


It's his job?

Why is this guy so close to Bret in several instances??? Go watch some games you never see a mic guy standing next to or right behind a coach?


How about you go find this out and report back?

Lastly, who and what is the hand signal for, is he really waving to mom?



You clearly know nothing about live sports broadcast. Hand signals are a very normal thing.

Typically the parab mic guys stand between the 15 and 25 yard line. 25 yard line is where the team box starts and you aren't supposed to go inside that. Where on the field were they? It doesn't show in that short video.

The camera guys have headsets to communicate back and forth with the TV truck. Parab Mics only have headphones that monitor the audio they're catching. So it is very likely that hand signals could be used. I never experienced that when I did it, though.

ESPN isn't the one filming personal video, and this cluck isn't videoing for ESPN.

So you get sounds from a go pro you have mounted on the mic?
