SVP, Production College Networks, ESPN

Druley has plenty to be proud of this past year. She’s overseen initiatives for the successful SEC Network, including the second annual SEC School Takeover, SEC 2016 Media Days and the revamped “SEC Nation” desk. And she took part in the signing of legendary sports broadcaster Brent Musburger and college football analyst Jesse Palmer as lead SEC Network commentators. “TV anywhere and everywhere is the biggest cable story this year,” she says. “People are taking advantage of streaming opportunities, like on the ESPN app, to watch live sports wherever they are on whatever device is most convenient.”

What’s been the biggest story in cable this year?

TV, anywhere and everywhere is the biggest cable story this year.  People are taking advantage of streaming opportunities, like on the ESPN app, to watch live sports wherever they are on whatever device is most convenient.
