Old fashion radio wont work in Alabama!

Yes, but the UofM is making the agreement with Learfield. I was hoping that under a new contract things might change with regard to this.

I never understood not streaming the coach's show.

RE: Streaming

Tiger Sports Properties retains the streaming rights for their subscription service at gotigersgo.com. This goes for all their programming, games, coach's show, etc.

We would love to stream the games on Rock103.com. Trust me, it would make things a lot easier for us.

MEMPHIS (Feb. 16, 2016) – Memphis Athletics and Learfield's Tiger Sports Network have agreed to a new five-year partnership with WEGR-FM 102.7 "ROCK 103" and WREC-AM 600.

As the flagship radio stations to the Memphis Athletic Department, WEGR-FM and WREC-AM will provide clearance of Tiger sports in the greater Memphis area. Fans will benefit from hearing the following programming through the 2020-21 athletic season: football and men's basketball game broadcasts, and football and basketball coaches' shows.

"iHeartMedia Memphis is proud to continue working with and broadcasting Memphis Athletics," said Morgan D. Bohannon, Area President. "We enjoy working with Learfield and Memphis Athletics and look forward to broadcasting Tiger Athletics for many years to come."

"This is a great day for Memphis Tiger fans," said Todd Kucinski, Tiger Sports Properties General Manager. "With 100,000 watts of power, ROCK 103 will provide regional coverage of Tiger Athletics throughout Memphis and the Mid-South area. In addition, we are proud to continue our partnership with the heritage and tradition of 600 WREC."

"We are grateful to iHeartMedia for the continued support of Memphis Athletics and are excited for the addition of ROCK 103 to the line-up," said University of Memphis Athletic Director Tom Bowen. "Quality programming of our athletic events is key to the overall experience we provide our fans, and I'm encouraged to have two trusted radio stations providing these programs throughout the Memphis area."

The partnerships between Memphis Athletics and iHeartMedia are managed by Tiger Sports Properties, a property of Learfield, which oversees all aspects related to Memphis Athletics' rights, including Memphis Tiger Sports Network.

Learfield manages the multimedia rights and sponsorships for more than 120 collegiate institutions and associations, and titles the prestigious Learfield Directors' Cup. Learfield represents collegiate institutions, conferences and arenas for their respective multimedia rights and sponsorship initiatives, and offers these partners with professional concessions and ticket sales, licensing and trademark consulting, digital platform expertise and venue and technology systems through its owned companies.

I STILL WISH EVERYONE WASN'T SO GREEDY. I MISS NOT HEARING THE GAMES ON THE RADIO WHEN I'M 700 MILES OUT OF TOWN.

So again, I wonder how much Tiger Sports Properties (which I'd assume is controlled/owned ny the Univ) makes on this subscription service. I would think that the radio rights to the Tiger broadcasts on 600AM and Rock103 would be worth a little more if they could stream the broadcasts...just more listeners.

That's what I would be most interested in. Normally I can watch the game on TV or at least record it. It would be great to hear the post game show no matter where you are with internet radio (thanks Mark Cuban).

Thanks, BrianJ for sharing this important good news.

It matters little until it's on the iheart app. Not that I care to listen to Wolo but the post game call in show is alway a gem. Win and we get the sunshine pumpers and lose we get Tony and Jr. Both entertaining

Tiger Sports Properties is property of Learfield, not the school

Tony never holds back what he thinks, thing is, his thoughts and comments on Josh are right. I know his uncle very well. Good man.
