This from John Fuller at The Mat:

WRESTLING COMMUNITY:

Fox College Sports will not air the wrestling competition. However, producer Max Casanova does not feel that the decision not to air the competition warranted a release or notice to the wrestling community. On the phone today, I was told I could wait until Monday for a statement from Fox, but that I still may not get one.

With that said, it is time for you to take action. I know you can. For a new network trying to get college sports on its station, this seems like a bad move to me. The NCAA Tournament garners GREAT ratings, so why would Fox shun us? Who knows? Nonetheless, here is Max's contact information:

Max Casanova
mcasanova@foxsports.net
310-369-8563

Flood him. Maybe then they will show the wrestling community the proper respect of at least giving advance notice so you don't change your schedule again to try to watch the U.S. win three gold medals here!

Sportsfan, that is the title of the thread John started on The Mat. "World University Games on Fox"

That is what I figured, but were any of the other sports at the University Games broadcast? If so, I missed those too.

It is my understanding that they have, and will, be broadcasting some of the other sports.
