as far as the top 20 providers. I know DirecTV isn't official, but it sounds like it is a sure thing, so I have them as yes. Could be errors, let me know any I've missed:

1. Comcast - YES
2. DirecTV - PROBABLE (rates agreed upon)
3. Dish Network - YES
4. Time Warner - YES
5. Cox - YES
6. Verizon - NO
7. Charter - PROBABLE (Charter executive says "will have it)
8. AT&T - YES
9. Cablevision - NO
10. Bright House - YES
11. Suddenlink - YES
12. Mediacom - NO
13. WideOpenWest (WOW) - YES
14. CableOne - YES
15. RCN - NO
16. Atlantic Broadband - NO
17. Armstrong - NO
18. Midcontinent - NO
19. Service Electric - NO
20. MetroCast - YES

**CenturyLink also has agreed

This is going to be a wildly successful network. Did any of the other conference networks do this well at launch?

Everything I've read says Charter is close to finalizing but isn't there yet.

I wouldn't count them as a yes until the deal is inked. The rumors were that it should've already been announced by now.

When the CEO starts saying affirmative things, and they've agreed on rates, I'm comfortable counting them as a yes. Who knows, could be wrong, but I'm not gonna change them to a no:

Chuck Carlton ?@ChuckCarltonDMN

RT @JBFlint: DirecTV CEO Mike White says company has agreed on rates for ESPN's SEC Network and is optimistic it will launch it.

Clay Travis ?@ClayTravisBGID

DirecTV statement to Outkick: "Our discussions with @SECNetwork are going well & we expect to provide channel before start of SEC season."

Heck, most aren't doing this well years after launch. Only B1G Network can compete.
