If you're holding out hope for a college football program similar to NFL RedZone, the path to making that a reality appears to be there ... eventually.
A new business partnership between ESPN and the NFL gives the NFL RedZone name and brand to the worldwide leader, although the deal has yet to close. Once it becomes official, ESPN could utilize the RedZone name for other sports including the potential for an equivalent on college football Saturdays, a possibility that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell hinted at last month. Jimmy Pitaro, ESPN's president, was recently asked about the possibility. Although the dream becoming a reality seems a long way away with many potential hurdles, his response is certainly encouraging.
