Syracuse Sports Radio

Sports radio in Syracuse: at Citadel's lone Syracuse AM outlet, new calls are in place to go along with the new "Score" slogan. The former WNSS (1260 Syracuse) is now WSKO, a callsign Citadel last used in Providence before it pulled the plug on "Score" sports-talk there a couple of years back. The new WSKO will lead off its day with Don Imus, using Sporting News Radio the rest of the day until local sports talker Brent Axe hits the air at 2 PM weekdays.

Friday's the big day for the Syracuse sports affiliation shuffle, of course, when Galaxy picks up ESPN from Citadel, launching "ESPN 97.7 and 1200" on WTLA (1200 North Syracuse), WSGO (1440 Oswego) and their translators at 97.7 and 100.1, as well as ESPN Deportes on WSCP (1070 Sandy Creek). The new ESPN outlets will also have Syracuse University sports, and what better time to have that set of basketball rights?
