MORGANTOWN - Mountaineer Sports Network (MSN), owned and operated by West Virginia University, is a radio and television network used to televise the school's football and basketball games, among other attractions.
The network also showcases "Mountaineer Magazine," along with other sports features
Mike Parsons, assistant athletic director for external affairs, said MSN's cornerstone is its radio network.
Today, there are more than 50 radio stations that broadcast WVU sports via MSN.
"You'll see big stations on the Mountaineer Sports Network like WVAQ in Morgantown, WTNJ in Beckley, WKEZ in Charleston and WXKX in Parkersburg," Parsons said.
MSN is carried on stations outside West Virginia, in Maryland and Virginia, he added.
Although college football long ago was normally carried on AM stations, Parsons said MSN also has FM stations that carry WVU football.
