As one of the nation's newest and innovative broadcast opportunities, the award-winning Southland Conference Television Network became a reality in 2008 and has broadcast nearly 70 events during its first two years. In just its second year of production, the network received a College Sports Media Award at the College Sports Video Summit in Atlanta as well as three prestigous Telly Awards.

Entering its third year of programming, the network has affiliate commitments from 14 stations that will reach roughly 6 million households throughout Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, improving the market reach of the network from the previous two years.

"We are very excited about our expanded list of affiliates in the Southland Conference's three-state region," Burnett said. "The Southland Network has continued to grow and more broadcasters have expressed interest in our programming. We are also very proud of new breakthrough over-the-air agreements in markets like Dallas-Fort Worth, San Antonio, Austin and New Orleans."
