Hell, rename it the Liberty Conference, I don't care. Easy to beat our current contract, which doesn't actually involve any televised sporting events, as near as I can tell.
We sure do! Liberty Flames Sports Network, LFSN.
Is it a streaming only network or is it carried by television providers?
There's a dedicated local channel but games can be picked up by MASN, CSN and the like nationally. Liberty22 can correct me if I'm wrong.

RE: So there's this now...
LFSN is 100% produced by us and run on some local channels and made available to stations and networks across the nation for carriage. It is not uncommon for us to produce home and road games and then have local station or regional sports networks pick it up. Everything we produce in not only football and mens basketball but nearly every other sport imaginable gets carried on the Watch ESPN app through ESPN3. If you have any type of streaming device or a smart TV then games in HD are no problem to watch anywhere in the world. I love ASN and their lead color guy for mens hoops is a good friend of mine. But unless you happen to have a station in your market then you won't find their games online.
LFSN would have to act as a Tier 3 broadcaster meaning there wouldn't be much of any (or possibly no) compensation to the schools. But it would make it easier to watch games and home and on the road.
