Wrestling on PBS

Part of the ”build back better” plan is to move more outsourced tv programming to localized stations. This should allow IPTV to show the yearly Iowa vs Iowa St dual in 480p quality by 2022. This should also allow IPTV to pick up the legendary Iowa State Tournament. The future is bright.
 
Will the Iowa vs ISU wrestling meet be televised on IPTV? If not, please explain why it isn't. TIA

Yeesh. Am I in a time warp? When’s the last time the dual was on there? 2005? Iowa and ISU both have other broadcast partners. There may be a cost for them but there are greater benefits to the schools and viewers. This caused IPTV to get out of the business.
 
Remember the 0.19 price also. Now I’m paying over $7.00 a gallon here in England after currency exchange rates. It is £1.50 per litre (pounds).
 
Those IPTV were the glory days for Iowa wrestling, just domination. Great memories. My brother and I would watch the dual then end up wrestling that always turned into a real fight that led to ass kickings by my father. Good times.
 
Aw come on spooneer, most of us on here that are old enough have great memories of wrestling on iptv and waiting for the big peach to see the top six at each weight class.Now we have a lot more coverage(thank gable),but back then we really looked forward to those 5 matches a year and the fact iowa was in the middle of the greatest sports dynasty ever, it could not get any better. Except it did, for junkies like us the amount of coverage is outstanding, but the law of diminishing returns hits some and that causes some to see the old ways more fondly.Myself i love having wrestling to watch 2 or 3 times a week, sorry for the ramble.

Right?

Btw, I’m still not sure how they got the Sunday Register delivered in Sioux County, back in the day…
 
Spooner, you didn’t enjoy those IPTV duals? I was really young and I didn’t care about any tv shows, because I was always outside, but Iowa wrestling on IPTV and Iowa football, my brother and I were watching.

Dallas Cowboys games also and Monday night football. I’m talking Staubach era. My dad would split a beer with me and pop popcorn on Monday night football if the Boys were playing and I could stay up.

You people know me by now and realize I ramble? I write all day and it’s hard for me to form my thoughts before tldr. Thanks
 
I have every single Hawkeye dual ever televised on IPTV on VHS. Whether I recorded them myself or bought the series of highlight tapes from them. I bought a dual DVD/VCR specifically for it and have it set up at our farm and I watch them religiously while I’m down here hunting. Likely throw one in after I climb down this evening. /csb
