I was thinking about the Longhorn Network crap LSU fans are going through to get the LHN for the LSU baseball series. I get to thinking damn, I wonder how many radio affiliates they have state-wide, Texas is a big arse state.
Then I go to A&M's website to compare footprints,
12th Man Radio Affiliates
Selma, Alabama...anybody know anything about this?

Jimbo has signed a few kids from the Montgomery area the last two classes. That’s the only thing I can think of. People wanting to follow the careers of some local south Alabama kids.

LOL it's Gospel/R&B station too.
Wow that is random. Apparently they've carried it since 2012.

I'm sure it's because Sumlin was hired in 2012. He's originally from Brewton, Alabama.

Clearly either has to be a local person there who wants it or some random connection.
Ahhhhhhhhh yea I bet it is the Sumlin connection - even though Brewton isn't exactly next door to Selma.

There are perhaps 5 residents walking around Selma on a good weather day. Cell phone service between Selma and anywhere else is spotty at best. In fact, one could film a deserted road horror movie on any road between Selma and anywhere you want to name. Known as the armpit of Alabama, no one wants to go to Selma.

This is the 54th Annual Bridge Crossing "Jubilee" and a huge crowd will assemble to commemorate "Bloody Sunday" in just 2 short days.

Find out who owns the station and you might have your answer.

Don't forget about the international paper mill. Almost accepted a job there
