In 2009,Ohio State announced it had sold its athletic program's media rights toIMG College and RadiOhio, Inc. (member of theDispatch Broadcasting Group and then-owner of longtime network flagships WBNS and WBNS-FM); the "lucrative multiyear deal" was reportedly worth $110 million, and scheduled to last through 2019. At the time of the announcement, athletic directorGene Smith said Ohio State athletics would be in a better position to confront thethen-ongoing economic downturn, referencing an unexpected $1.2 million deficit.^[7]^[8]

On December 31, 2018, Learfield Communications, Inc., andIMG College merged and formed a new company, Learfield IMG College.
