Sports broadcasts on WCIU were previously branded under the "BullsNet", "CubsNet" and "SoxNet" banners until 2010, when they were rebranded under the umbrella title "WGN Sports on The U". In 2011, all White Sox, Bulls and Cubs games televised on WCIU began to be syndicated to local stations in central Illinois and Iowa through the "WGN Sports Network" service. Prior to this, select Bulls games aired by WCIU and WGN had been simulcast to many of these same stations. In April 2006, WCIU began broadcasting White Sox, Cubs and Bulls home games in high definition, with away games following suit in April 2008. In February 2015, Weigel Broadcasting discontinued its agreement with Tribune Broadcasting to carry Cubs and White Sox telecasts produced by WGN, so as to not have the game broadcasts conflict with the WLS-TV-produced primetime newscast on WCIU (with WPWR-TV taking over as an overflow feed for WGN).
