Golden Eagle Broadcasting Signs Distribution Deal with DIRECTV

Tulsa, Okla. – The Oral Roberts University national broadcast, Golden Eagle Broadcasting, announced today that it has reached a distribution agreement with DIRECTV that will make the network available to all DIRECTV customers starting June 23, 2010 on channel 363*.

“Given its vast reach across the United States, we are excited to be launching on DIRECTV. This will allow ORU alumni, current students, prospective students, their families and the nation to see academic, spiritual, and athletic opportunities available at ORU,” said Dr. Mark Rutland, President of Oral Roberts University.

Had heard this was coming for some time and glad to know it's been finalized.

Questions:

Does this replace or augment our position with Fox College Sports? (I would assume replace). Will GEB now broadcast all home games live?

With the increased exposure opportunities, will GEB now broadcast other sports besides Men's Basketball (Women's hoops, baseball)?

Overall, this should be a GREAT situation for ORU and the athletic programs!
