Cox, Eatel, DirectTV currently do not have a deal in place to carry SEC Network:

To make a request/demand go to this site:LINK /

or if you don't mind staying on hold the digits apropos:

Cox: 225-615-1000
Eatel:800-621-4211
DirecTV:800-347-3288

So if you guys want to do something about it call or go to the website; by the way it is not like the ACA Tax website, the site I linked to only takes a couple of minutes to find the info you need and make your request.

The good news for those who want the SEC Network: AT&T U verse and Dish have worked out an agreement and will carry the SEC Network.

I've noticed that some people are perhaps balancing the exposure these providers would present, versus the local flavor that,for example CST announcers provide.
Obviously, it would be nice to have more LA talent involved.
Espn anointed Paul Finebaum SEC expert several years ago.
I've never been happy about that, nor having the SEC Network physical location not in an actual SEC State either, it's domiciled in North Carolina at an ESPN facility. Mind you this is a collaborative effort with them.
But my opinion is the SEC Network is long overdue; this is a national network, whether it's form is to my liking that's another matter.
I kind of missed seeing Timmy though.

For what it's worth, spoke to a Direct TV rep the other day and said that it was almost a done deal

Yeah DTV is only a matter of time before it's officially announced.

Does anyone actually see any major provider not working out a contract? Seems they would lose a good percentage of business if not.

If you think that the most popular cable providers in Baton Rouge, Birmingham, Mobile, Nashville, etc. won't be picking up the SEC network then you are stupid.

To bad the SEC doesn't follow ESPN lead and move the sec offices there too.
