MIAMI — FIU football released its full broadcast lineup for the 2025 season on Monday afternoon.
Four of the Panthers' six televised home games will air on either ESPN+ or one of ESPN's affiliated networks, while the remaining two home contests vs. Kennesaw State (Oct. 21) and Jacksonville State (Nov. 22) will be broadcast nationally on ESPNU and CBS Sports Network respectively. FIU will also have audio broadcasts for all 12 regular season games.
FIU football audio broadcasts will remain exclusively on the Panther Online Network, a free service which can be accessed by phone, laptop, tablet or any device with internet access. All audio streams will begin 15 minutes prior to kick off with a pregame show and concluded with a 15-minute postgame wrap up.
The Panther Online Network can be accessed by visiting fiusports.com/listen.
All audio broadcasts will be archived and available on demand shortly after the completion of each contest.
FIU football telecasts will have a similar look this season as acclaimed play-by-play announcer Steve Goldstein returns for his second season in the FIU broadcast booth.
Goldstein is the veteran play-by-play voice for the two-time reigning Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers and voice of the Miami Dolphins preseason telecasts. Former Miami Dolphins standout and current analyst for the Dolphins' preseason games, Kim Bokamper, will join Goldstein in the booth for several ESPN+ telecasts.
Corey Brooks also returns as a main part of the FIU Football broadcast team. He's spent the last six seasons commentating all of FIU's broadcasted sports and will have broadcast involvement in all of the Panthers' games this season.
Former FIU football tight end Jackson McDonald and guest analyst Billy Gil will be welcomed back into the radio booth. McDonald was on the Panthers football team from 2019-23 and excelled in his first year on the broadcast team.
Billy Gil returns after entertaining audiences on a number of broadcasts in 2024. Gil is a former FIU track and field standout and currently is a senior producer and on-air talent for the Dan Le Batard Show.
Hailey Sutton joins the fold as a new face on the FIU Football broadcasts in 2025. Sutton is an Emmy-award winning journalist and spent the last athletic year commentating FIU women's soccer along with FIU men's and women's basketball. She is a former sports reporter at WTVJ and currently works for CBS Sports. She will primarily work in a sideline-reporting capacity this fall.
