Administrators HornSports Staff Posted August 30, 2021 Administrators Report Share Posted August 30, 2021 It feels GREAT to say that it is finally GAME WEEK! #21 Texas will open their season against #23 Louisiana at 3:30 PM this Saturday at DKR (Game will be televised on FOX). And with it, the Steve Sarkisian era officially begins in Austin. It's an exciting time for Texas Football, and it's an exciting time for HornSports as a site as we are offering some different options to our members, guests and lurkers, only for the duration of football season to enhance your experience as a member in our community and on our site. Why? HornSports will always be FREE - we pay the bills through advertisements via the USA TODAY Sports Network. But, we've had some folks reach out over the years with suggestions, ideas and thoughts about making the site ad-free, etc. So we created some options - which are, dare we say CHEAP but allow you to support the site while getting an enhanced experience on the site. These options will only be available through the duration of football season. Options: Plus Membership - $5.60 for the football season Premium Membership - $20.21 for the football season There will be no rebilling after the season is over. There is no obligation for anyone to purchase/upgrade to a season membership if you like what you get in HornSports now! If you choose to upgrade, we appreciate your support - it allows us to increase and enhance the services we provide our members. Thanks again to ALL OF YOU for making our community a solid, respectful one.

Baron Posted October 1, 2021 Report Share Posted October 1, 2021 I thought the premium service was ad free? The three main stories have a continuous running screen with ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron Posted October 6, 2021 Report Share Posted October 6, 2021 I take back the 'it doesn't matter' part. When I scroll down a mini player pops up with an ad running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drb522 Posted October 7, 2021 Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 So pay the fees or you can’t read the free information due to huge ads covering them up? So the site isn’t free now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Aaron Carrara Posted October 7, 2021 Administrators Report Share Posted October 7, 2021 Hey guys, we should have that fixed by this weekend. The video player works off of a tag that USA TODAY provides and we’re having them change it for us so that we can implement it for non-premium folks. Thanks for your patience -it will be fixed soon!

Administrators Aaron Carrara Posted October 9, 2021 Administrators Report Share Posted October 9, 2021 Y’all bear with us on the video ads and other ads showing/not showing. They are working on it this weekend and it may get a little wonky while it all gets sorted out.

So the site isn’t free now I think what you saw was a result of the HUDL video not being responsive and as a result it took over the entire page.

Administrators Aaron Carrara Posted October 9, 2021 Administrators Report Share Posted October 9, 2021 Those video ads on articles should be fixed as well as all the others, we are told. Let us know if that isn’t the case. Thanks again for your patience - we appreciate all of you! UTfish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
