So "The U" indeed will be making a comeback on WCIU 26 this fall with the end of its deal with the CW Network in September. "The U", as the article mentioned, is currently located at WCIU 26.2 & WMEU 48.1. One would think they'd refer to them as "The U Too", which is what they were branded before WCIU was branded as CW 26 in 2019. Confused?

"The U" & "The U Too" aired very similar programming & schedules. BOTH Weigel-owned stations had aired off-network reruns as well as syndicated talk shows and occasionally aired sports. However, they weren't CW-produced coverage of the controversial LIV Golf Tour plus ACC Football & Basketball like WGN had aired on weekends since last September.

That last part about a revamped Stadium Network is something to definitely keep an eye on and a possible OTA home for selected Bulls, Blackhawks & White Sox games is very possible in the coming months. Stay tuned.
