All non-conference home games and all BIG EAST contests not designated for television will stream on FloSports and the BIG EAST Digital Network
NEW YORK – The BIG EAST Conference has announced an agreement with leading sports streaming service FloSports to become the home of the BIG EAST Digital Network (BEDN) presented by SoFi for the 2021-22 academic year. FloSports served as the digital home of BIG EAST women’s basketball in 2020-21, and will now expand its BEDN lineup to include more than 500 Olympic sports events, as well as BIG EAST original content such as “Shootaround” and “Fast Break,” the Conference’s weekly men’s and women’s basketball feature shows. FloSports offers both monthly and annual subscriptions, and as part of the expanded agreement, BIG EAST member institution student and faculty discounts will be made available.
The digital platform complements the BIG EAST’s expansive national television deal with FOX Sports, which offers comprehensive annual coverage of regular season men’s and women’s basketball games, including the BIG EAST Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments presented by JEEP, as well as BIG EAST Olympic sport championships. CBS Sports also annually airs select BIG EAST men’s and women’s basketball games along with several Olympic sport contests. Additionally, SNY annually airs upwards of 18 UConn women’s basketball games.
“After our successful collaboration last year to make FloSports the digital home of BIG EAST women’s basketball, we’re very excited to expand the partnership by adding Olympic sports competitions and other programming to FloSports’ growing platform for the 2021-22 academic year,” said Rick Gentile, BIG EAST Senior Associate Commissioner, Broadcasting. “Our national TV agreement with FOX Sports has provided the BIG EAST with unrivaled linear coverage of all 22 BIG EAST sports over the last eight seasons, and our enhanced digital arrangement with FloSports will further broaden the reach of the BIG EAST Digital Network and grow our audience on a global level. The exposure from the increased distribution of our competitions and other content is sure to benefi t our student-athletes, coaches, schools and fans.” “We have found an incredible partner with the BIG EAST,” says Mark Floreani, CEO and Co-Founder, FloSports. “Rick and the BIG EAST team share our vision of expanding access to more sports through digital platforms and building stronger direct relationships with conference students, athletes and fans of the wide range of athletic programs offered through the BIG EAST.”
BEDN on FloSports is expected to produce more than 225 events in 2021-22, with a focus on women’s basketball, which accounts for over 75 streamed games per season. The BIG EAST’s 11 member institutions will also provide FloSports with additional regular-season streams, bringing the expected total number of events to nearly 600 for the year. With the increase in coverage across all BIG EAST campuses, the Conference will implement a number of production innovations, including the use of Kiswe, which will allow game talent to call the contest from any location, and the Pixellot camera system, which provides automated camera coverage.
More than 130 women’s basketball games will stream on FloSports, including the First Round of the 2022 BIG EAST Women’s Basketball Tournament
