Bonneville’s “Seattle Sports 710” KIRO Seattle has announced an expanded rights deal to continue carrying The Pac 12 conference’s Washington State University football and men’s basketball.
The multi-year deal will see KIRO serve as the primary broadcast home for the games with conflicts with the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks and MLB’s Seattle Mariners pushing them to Conservative Talk “Seattle Red” 770 KTTH. The deal will also see KIRO carry one baseball game per season and all women’s basketball games air on the Seattle Sports app. Football Head Coach Kirby Moore will have a weekly audio/video segment on Tuesdays at 12:30pm in-season with Michael Bumpus.
Washington State University VP/Director of Athletics Jon Haarlow said, “Seattle Sports gives us an incredible opportunity to connect with Cougs across Washington and throughout the Pacific Northwest. As the region’s premier sports media brand, Seattle Sports provides a tremendous platform to share the stories of our programs, student-athletes and coaches. Reaching all Cougs wherever they are is critical to our outreach, and we’re excited about what this partnership means for the future of Washington State Athletics.”
KIRO Program Director Kyle Brown commented, “We’re thrilled to partner with Washington State University Athletics at such an exciting time, as the new Pac-12 takes shape and the Kirby Moore era begins. At Seattle Sports, our goal is to be more than just a radio station. This renewed and expanded partnership allows us to deliver even more coverage for Cougar fans through enhanced on-air programming, original video content, and the Seattle Sports app – connecting fans across Western Washington and around the world.”
