Entercom will flip Classic Country 790 WMC Memphis, TN to Sports on Monday, October 17.
The new “Sports 790” will assume the affiliation of Fox Sports Radio from 730 KQPN. As part of the changes, the Jim Rome show will move from Entercom sister “ESPN 92.9 & 680” WMFS.
92.9 will replace Rome in the 11am-2pm slot by running the final hour of ESPN’s Colin Cowherd, the first hour of The Scott Van Pelt Show, and expanding local afternoon host Eric Hasseltine into the 1:00 hour.
Could that mean that intercom might consider flipping WMC FM to country as a head to head competitor to WGKX? Would make sense.
