I should start a script for this...

Hostage Update: Day 11 without a single Tech article in The Times.

Any talk on S'Port radio?

We have Dietrich talking us up over here. He shows some love to nlulm and that's understandable, but he limits his lsu talk.

Gannett is HORRIBLE. Please stop the "In Kind" trade out with them. We don't need them!

100.7 The Ticket with Ben Mintz is pretty good about info on Tech. They have Bleed Tech Blue, and a couple others on at least once a week to talk Tech as well as regular promos for carrying the games during the season. You should listen if you get a chance.

Ben has been good to us from what I've heard of him. Glad he gives us some love in S'Port.

How 'bout Fletcher?

He had a great interview with Luke recently, but other than that, the Fletcher Show doesn't talk Tech anymore. They claim to be LSU's flagship station. Ever since NWST started sponsoring the show, Tech talk has been slim to none.

JJ and Bonzai hate LSU, but they don't talk Tech either.

I always figured he was a turd just like Ferrell and Lang.

Ben mintz does a great job giving tech tons of love on the air. He has become a Tech fan himself.

100.7 FM in Shreveport from 3-6 PM CT

His fantasy football hour from 4-5 is incredible. If you like sports betting he's a good listen as well

Fletch was on vacation all last week. He has Tech coaches on weekly in season and has Marty Cordaro on for about 30 minutes every Wednesday where they split time between baseball and Tech. In general he is really complimentary on Tech and is of the opinion that we are a clear 2 in Louisiana and better than most P5 teams that are having a down season. At least when I listen, 7:30-8:30, I feel like it is an even mix between pro sports, LSU, Tech, and high school.

Thats what Ive gathered. He has a a good focus on SEC, specifically LSU and a little Arkansas. He's pretty high on Tech athletics and usually very complimentary. And of course he covers other things that may be of inteterest to some listeners, like other NLA universities and high school sports.
