Major Programming Change coming?

I don't live in Dallas but I wanted to share a tweet from RadioInsight.

Hearing that a major programming change in Dallas/Fort Worth could be announced as early as today.
 
I saw that too. I wish Lance would have at least provided a hint. I'm guessing "major" would involve either a big signal or a big brand. Not a change in the brokered programing on an upper-band AM station.

Perhaps something involving The Ticket to follow up on the 104.1 divestment? The Ticket to 570 or one of Liberman's signals?

An additional signal or swap for i93?

A format change on 97.1? Maybe an early announcement of newstalk (that would be more of a national story than a local DFW one)?

Something involving 105.3? If so, where do the Cowboys go? 1080?

ESPN Audio has reached a long-term Local Marketing Agreement (LMA) with Cumulus Media, Inc. which calls for Cumulus to program ESPN Radio Dallas KESN 103.3 FM. The station will retain the ESPN name and ESPN’s national programming, highlighted by Mike & Mike and The Herd with Colin Cowherd as part of a long-term affiliation agreement. In addition, ESPN Deportes Radio Dallas 1540 AM, through an affiliation agreement, will now be programmed by Deportes Media and will retain the ESPN Deportes Radio moniker. ESPN will continue to own KESN.

The Cumulus Media LMA will take effect upon the closing of the pending sale of radio station KTDK FM, while the Deportes Media affiliation agreement will take effect on September 1, 2013.

"ESPN Audio is always evaluating business options and opportunities, while continuing to serve sports fans,” said Traug Keller, ESPN senior vice president, production business divisions. “These two moves are smart for us in the Dallas market as we grow the audio business and draw on the strengths of Cumulus. Sports fans will continue to have access to the best national and local programming that ESPN Radio Dallas and ESPN Deportes Radio Dallas have to offer.”



This may not be the only shoe to drop....more if it becomes available.
