The Crimson Tide Sports Network has a new Birmingham partner.
Alabama athletics will have a new radio home in Birmingham beginning this fall.
No longer will the Crimson Tide be heard on WJOX as the school's multimedia rights holder signed a five-year deal with SummitMedia. That means coverage is moving to their portfolio of stations.
The Crimson Tide Sports Network broadcasts of Alabama football games will be heard live on 106.9-FM. It will also carry Nick Saban' weekly radio show, pregame and postgame shows. Alabama men's basketball will air on 97.3-FM while women's basketball and baseball games will move to 1320-AM and 100.1-FM.
The network, operated by Learfield, has 80 radio affiliates across six states. It currently airs on WJOX, 94.5-FM and 690-AM in Birmingham. The switch does not take effect until the fall.
