SEC announces TV Network in April!

[voldawgforever]

The Southeastern Conference will announce its latest revenue bonanza in mid-April, commissioner Mike Slive told Yahoo! Sports on Thursday.

"Our focus for now is on our tournament and the NCAA tournament," Slive said. "We will make a formal announcement about the SEC Network in mid-April."

Way overdue, imo.

That also sounds like it could be an announcement about the status of the negotiations, what's being planned, how talks are going, etc

That would be just great if we will be able to get the damn channel on TV instead of looking all over creation for the right freaking game. Just like today some of us don't have ESPN U on our freaking TV lineup & it's blacked out on ESPN 3 & we missed our bb game against Bama. I'm so damn tired of ESPN & the way they do stuff to us. Sorry about the rant but....Jesus it shouldn't be this hard, after all we are the SEC damn it.

I wonder how much more Dish will charge me to get it.

What if Dish doesnt have it ? It better be nationwide -- that stupid channel that calls its self the SEC Network now isnt -- I have to watch ESPN 3 for that.

Dish has the PAC-Network and BTN, so you have to figure they will look into it. Plus, Charlie Ergen, the co-founder of Dish Network is a UT grad. I am worried about DirecTV. I assume they will get it even though they turned down the PAC-12 Network because it is the SEC. There would be massive backlash and satellite dishes set on fire the first time a football game was missed in the South.

I wouldn't doubt it lol. I get PO'd every time I see one of those Dish commercials where they try to imply that Direct is misleading their customers, because they do the exact same things.

Deerpark knows this stuff -- wait for him to show up and post the facts

Well I'm going to have Dish soon and it has the B10 network, so surely it will get the SEC Network.

Still I'm getting a bit tired of everything getting it's own channel.

Yes, I believe it was the Longhorn Network that destroyed the Big 12 as it was.

Truth

The last two teams that left definitely. Colorado and Nebraska's departures were catalyzed by other reasons (not in any way supporting the longhorn network)

This is great but it's useless if it's not on Dish and nationally.
