Columbus = Sports Radio King of the World?

[sportsonradio]

I was chatting with a buddy about the sports radio landscape in Columbus... there is a lot of sports coverage in addition to the two "All Sports" formats. Here is the list we came up with regarding sports teams/events on various stations:

WBNS 1460/97.1 - OSU football/basketball, Indians, Blue Jackets (also on CD 101)
WTVN 610 - Bengals, Crew
WYTS 1230 - Reds
WBWR 105.7 - Browns
WMNI 920 - Clippers, Indy 500, Notre Dame football
WTDA 103.9 - Steelers
WOSU 820 - OSU hockey/women's basketball

I'm sure we missed a couple... not sure where OSU baseball will be now that the Clippers went to WMNI (maybe WTDA). WVKO was carrying high school football/basketball, Ohio University, and Bowling Green before their format change. The Destroyers were also on somewhere before the Arena Football League cancelled play this year. Also, I think NASCAR is on one of the country stations.

I don't know of another market with so much coverage of it's teams.

WHOK 95.5 usually has Nascar

WYTS is carrying Ohio University basketball right now.

WYTS is carrying Ohio University basketball right now.

I was just getting ready to post that myself.

Also, the NEW Catholic radio Group, under St. Gabriel Radio, is carrying Ohio Dominica University sports on WVKO-AM.

Also, as has been pointed out on a different thread, Gary Richards provides good local coverage of High School
sports in Columbus. At the present time, he doesn't have a affiliate for his sports programming, after losing WVKO
a couple of months ago.

Columbus BlueJackets only airs on 1460 AM and not 97.1. Since WWCD have the FM Radio rights.
