SEC Network - expected carriers

[DawgatAuburn]

I was playing around on the website for the SEC network http://www.getsecnetwork.com/ and the only carrier I can find who is offering it so far is AT&T U-verse. I realize there's a long time between now and August, but when do we start getting confirmations on some of these? In Auburn for example, our providers are DirecTV, Dish, Charter, and WOW (formerly Knology). None of them are on board yet. I am at a point of thinking about moving away from DirecTV, but I don't want to move to a provider who doesn't have the SEC Network. A guy at WOW (a tech, not a customer service rep) told me they would have it, but obviously that's nothing official. Does anyone know the details of how the negotiations are going?

Rest assured...it will available all over the place

I haven't heard either, but I'm on Dish and if they don't have it I'll switch to someone who does. I'm sure they'll have it though. Should be a very popular network.

It would be financial suicide for any carrier in the SEC footprint not to carry it

I realize Uverse isn't an option for you, but Uverse beats the pants off DirecTV for me. I had DirecTV for about 5 years and moved to Uverse in September. Never going back.

I'll miss having the MLB Package but I can get Mike Shannon on the radio and be just fine.

Seconded. I love Uverse. For awhile, I had all of the regional Fox Sports channels even. Hate I lost those. Still have MLB, NFL, LHN, all 3 Pac12 Networks, etc. Uverse has prettymuch proven that they will pay asking prices for channels and won't get into long, bitter negotiations as well. Had FXX the day it was unveiled as well...

If you get

AppleTV or have a ps3 (not sure about Xbox) you can stream the MLB package on your tv through their app.
