ESPN Radio finds new home on Houston FM dial

David Barron of the Houston Chronicle gives us a heads up on the new station at 97.5 KFNC on your dial. It's now ESPN Radio:
ESPN Radio returns to Houston at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday, when KFNC (97.5 FM) signs on as the network's full-time Houston affiliate.

KFNC will go wall-to-wall with network programming, including the Mike and Mike Show with Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg, Colin Cowherd, Dan Patrick and the Sports Bash afternoon show, for at least the rest of the month before launching its afternoon-drive talk show as soon as early February.

Jon Madani, the station's program director, will offer local updates three times an hour beginning at 6 a.m. Chuck Savage, a holdover from the Cumulus outlet's days as a news and talk station, also will contribute hourly updates, and Julie Takahashi and Martha Martinez will provide traffic updates.

What does ESPN moving for the future of the former ESPN 790 am "The Sports Animal?"
