2020 Media Policies -- SUBJECT TO CHANGE
CREDENTIALS
Requests for working press credentials should be made through our online portal located by CLICKING HERE. Questions can be made by reaching out to Jason Knavel (jknavel@bgsu.edu) in the BGSUÂ Department of Strategic Communications and Brand Advancement. Requests should be made at least one week in advance. Late requests will be honored if space is available, but cannot be guaranteed. Scouts and non-working media will be seated if space is available, dependent on league and national rules. (NOTE: Due to COVID-19 and other factors, the credential policy is subject to change, and press box seating and field access will be EXTREMELY limited)
WEEKLY INFORMATION
Media members can access BGSU information via the internet at BGSUFalcons.com. Weekly game notes and statistics will be updated regularly. A PDF version of releases and statistics can be e-mailed to those outlets which would prefer to receive this information on a regular basis. Please notify the BGSUÂ Strategic Communications Office (jknavel@bgsu.edu) if you would like to be put on our primary media e-mail list.
WEEKLY PRESS CONFERENCES
Football coach Scot Loeffler will hold a weekly media press conference via Zoom, open to all members of the media. Media members interested in joining the call should contact Jason Knavel (jknavel@bgsu.edu). Audio and video of each weekly press conference will be available at BGSUFalcons.com shortly after the completion of the press conference.
PLAYER INTERVIEWS
BGSU Strategic Communications strives to provide multiple opportunities for media to conduct interviews with student-athletes and coaches. Often, interviews can be conducted following an open practice, but we also suggest making player requests during each team’s weekly press conference. Please allow at least 24 hours to set up interviews with players. Arrangements can be made for telephone and video interviews at a time that is mutually agreeable to the reporter/broadcaster and the athlete, should there be a scheduling conflict. Due to COVID-19 policies, most interviews will be conducted via phone and/or Zoom for 2020.
PARKING
All media will park by entering lot AA, the lot just north of the football stadium at the Sebo Center. Access to the media lot is by Stadium Drive. Admission to the lot will be restricted by parking list provided through the strategic communications office. All media members are asked to enter the stadium through Gate 3 on the west side of the stadium.
POST-GAME INTERVIEWS
Coach Loeffler and selected BGSU players will be available for post-game interviews via Zoom, following the normal cooling-off period. Working members of the media interested in gaining access to the Zoom press conference should contact Jason Knavel at jknavel@bgsu.edu or by phone/text to 814-464-5009 to obtain links and passwords.
Â
PRESS GATE
Media are asked to enter the stadium through gate 3 at Doyt L. Perry Stadium on the west side of the stadium. This is a short walk from the media parking lot and a short walk from the elevator to the press box. All media credentials will be distributed at gate 3.
MEDIA FIELD POLICY
Members of the media working in the press box will NOT have access to the field during pre-game warmups, the game or postgame. Field access will be limited to working photographers and television reporters, who will NOT have access to the press box. No interviews may be conducted on the field and any attempt to do so may lead to the loss of your media pass.
PHOTOGRAPHERS
Photo passes for newspaper photographers, television videographers and, under special circumstances, for free-lance photographers, are available from the BGSUÂ Strategic Communications Office by filling out our online credential request form by CLICKING HERE. Photo passes entitle the photographer to field access only, not the press box.
PRESS BOX SERVICES
In 2020, there will be limited-to-no printed materials in the press box. Statistics will not be printed between periods and postgame books will be limited. Members of the media can stay up-to-date on statistics via BGSU's live stats service. A limited number of printed flip cards will be available. The BGSU press box does have wireless internet connections for all members of the media.
RADIO AND TELEVISION
Space will be made available for the official visiting radio station and student radio station (as available). Space is limited in each booth. Complementary phone lines and ethernet connections are available in the radio booths. Anyone wishing to televise a game from Doyt L. Perry Stadium should contact the BGSUÂ Strategic Communications Office at least ONE MONTH prior to the game, and preferably before the start of the season. The Mid-American Conference makes final decisions on all television requests through their television partner contracts.
LIVE STREAMING
Live streaming of BGSU football practices or games is not permitted. The use of live streaming software/apps is prohibited while covering BGSU Football, unless prior permission is obtained from the BGSU Athletic Communications staff.
