SNY to broadcast up to 300 hours of UConn sports, including live games

Looks like we won't have to wait for tomorrow, as The Courant's Desmond Conner is reporting that, according to sources, SNY will broadcast upwards of 300 hours of UConn sports-related material (I presume over a calender year; it's unclear, as of now, from the report). Not only will the New York-based sports cable network show live men's basketball and football games -- taking over MyTV9's role of showing live games not picked up by ESPN or another network -- but it appears as though there will be other programs on the network as well, per Conner. Which means, as a Cox subscriber, I'll be getting to know my friendly neighborhood bartender quite well this upcoming college sports season.
