Michigan athletics' three primary sports have their new flagship radio station.
Learfield’s Michigan Sports Properties in partnership with Beasley Media Group Detroit, announced a multi-year broadcast agreement that will make WCSX-FM (94.7) the new flagship radio home for the Wolverines on Wednesday.
The agreement takes effect at the start of the 2025 football season with WCSX-FM scheduled to broadcast all Michigan football, men’s basketball, and ice hockey games as well as the affiliated coaches’ shows and some "exclusive ancillary programming," according to a press release.
Play-by-play voice Doug Karsch and color commentator Jon Jansen will remain as the voices of Michigan football.

"When it comes to college athletics, no brand is bigger and no fan base is more passionate than the University of Michigan,” Kevin Rich, Beasley Media Group vice president of operations said in the release. “We’re thrilled to partner with the University and Michigan Sports Properties to bring top-tier programming and play-by-play coverage to fans across Southeast Michigan."
Additionally, WMGC-FM (105.1 The Bounce) will carry some women’s basketball regular-season games as well as postseason matchups.
“Partnering with Beasley Media Group as our new flagship radio station marks an exciting chapter for our athletics department,” said Doug Gnodtke, Warde Manuel's right hand man and chief of staff. “This collaboration will not only amplify the voices of our student-athletes and coaches, but it also strengthens our connection with fans and alumni in metro Detroit and across the state of Michigan."
