8/14/2025 1:25:00 PM | ATHLETICS, BUILDING THE DEPAUL BRAND
CHICAGO – DePaul Athletics fans will have more ways than ever to follow the Blue Demons beginning with the 2025-26 season. The Blue Demons will be featured across six television partners and through a continued partnership with SiriusXM, ensuring comprehensive coverage of DePaul athletics year-round.
Every home contest for men's soccer, women's soccer, volleyball, women's basketball, men's basketball and softball will be broadcast through one of DePaul's affiliate partners, providing unprecedented access for fans.
"Expanding our broadcast and streaming partnerships is a major step forward in connecting Blue Demon fans to our teams like never before," said DePaul Vice President and Director of Athletics DeWayne Peevy. "Whether you're in Chicago, across the Midwest, or anywhere around the country, you'll have more opportunities than ever to watch our student-athletes compete at the highest level. This increased visibility is a key part of our strategic plan's 'Building the DePaul Brand' pillar – strengthening our ties with alumni, fans and recruits, while showcasing the energy and excellence of DePaul on a national stage."
Earlier this summer, the BIG EAST Conference announced a new six-year digital media rights agreement with ESPN, guaranteeing a minimum of 75 women's basketball games and 200 Olympic Sports events annually on ESPN+, along with at least 25 non-conference men's basketball games.
DePaul will also extend its partnership with Marquee Sports Network for the third consecutive year. Select games will air live on Marquee throughout the school year, with additional digital content available on the network and the Marquee Sports app - including The Blue Demon Room Podcast. Marquee Sports Network serves as the exclusive local television home of the Chicago Cubs and a broadcast partner the Chicago Bears, Chicago Sky and Chicago Stars. The network is available on more than 65 cable and streaming providers across portions of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa and Wisconsin, with non-gameday programming accessible nationwide via DirecTV and Fubo.
As part of the BIG EAST Media Rights agreement signed in Summer 2024, Fox Sports will continue to be home to at least 80 BIG EAST men's and women's basketball contests across the regular season and postseason. BIG EAST basketball coverage will also continue on Peacock and NBC Sports, with TNT Sports joining the lineup beginning this season.
DePaul men's basketball radio broadcasts – featuring Zach Zaidman and Dave Corzine - will be exclusively available on Sirius XM and the DePaul Blue Demons app starting in 2025-26.
