Beasley Media launches Florida Alumni Radio, a new Sports-focused format debuting Wednesday, August 20, on 1010 WJBR in Tampa. The station will open with the Miller and Moulton Morning Show, featuring daily sports analysis, commentary, and conversation. Florida Alumni Radio is positioned as a destination for Florida sports fans and graduates, spotlighting alumni pride and community connection.

As part of the new format, the station will serve as the exclusive home for University of South Florida Athletics coverage, including football broadcasts, coach's shows, alumni features, and special programming. WJBR will also remain the Tampa affiliate for Florida State University football.

Programming will extend beyond game coverage, incorporating exclusive interviews, alumni stories, and features on Florida's athletic heritage.

"Florida Alumni Radio is more than a station-it's a destination for Florida sports fans and alumni to come together and celebrate the teams and traditions they love," said Ron deCastro, Vice President and Market Manager of Beasley Media Group Tampa. "We're proud to provide a platform that not only delivers great sports content, but also connects alumni, students, and fans across the Tampa Bay community in a meaningful way."
