    It hasn't always been this way, but today it's undoubtedly KTAL NBC 6 in Shreveport. They do a great job covering Tech (and Grambling). Their sports crew really hustles, and it shows.

    No access to Shreveport here in WM, but Aaron Deitrich does a great job. He happens to work for KNOE, but he is passionate about providing good coverage for local schools. He has never gone overboard to give ulm as much or more coverage as Tech just for the sake of doing it. TNS was notorious for doing that.

    Monroe KNOW 8 - Shreveport Bossier KTAL NBC 6

    Both do awesome jobs - on us and the local highschool sports

    In Shreveport 12 & 3 worry too much about the useless Mudbugs and LSU

    Before the Times got bought out they used to give great coverage with Game Day first page sports stories. I know now they ignore Tech as much as possible.

    In Shreveport-Bossier it is definitely KTAL NBC 6. Consistently good coverage. KTBS ABC 3 is hit or miss, sometimes they put out some pretty decent stories. KSLA CBS 12 is basically useless for Tech coverage, they put no effort in their sports reporting any longer, and only care if it involves purple and gold or high school basketball.

    That's interesting since KSLA's lead sports anchor (or former lead SA) Bob Griffin, had a daughter that married Luke McCown (I think) back in the day. Is Griffin still around?

    Griffin does some minor stuff for KTBS. I see him every now and then.

    I wish that Chris Digiorno (sic?) in Monroe would give us better coverage, but I don't live in Monroe, so I don't know what kind of coverage he gives.

    I've seen him at a lot of baseball games. He seems to do pretty good job.

    Re: Best Media Coverage for Tech?

    I honestly wonder if the radio/media/news people in the area believe that Tech gets the right amount of coverage, too much coverage, or too little courage.

    Its a given that most fans would say too little...because we are fans...we are supposed to advocate for our team.

    What would most media types say?

    Re: Best Media Coverage for Tech?

    Honestly most fans don’t think that they are talked about enough. I got a running joke but not really joke . ULM people call me a Tech homer, some Tech people say I talk to much LSU and the Sec , and Grambling people say I’m racist because I don’t talk GSU. I accepted this a long time ago. People hear what they want to hear and it’s hard to change opinions.
