[cite web |work=RollTide.com - University of Alabama Athletics |url=http://www.rolltide.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=8000&ATCLID=239736 |title=Football Radio Network] On Friday evenings during the fall, WVNN carries high school football games from nearby Athens High School and Buckhorn High School.

History

The station, previously signed WWXQ, was acquired by Cumulus Media from Clear Channel Communications in April 2006, as part of a two-station deal that also included 94.1 WXQW (which is now WHRP). When owned by Clear Channel, the 92.5 and 94.1 signals were simulcasting an oldies music format; Clear Channel moved that station to 100.3 FM, with the callsign WQRV. 92.5 FM was also a Decatur, Alabama, station in the 1950s as WMSL-FM and WHOS-FM. The station was assigned the WVNN-FM call letters by the Federal Communications Commission on April 6, 2006.cite web |title=FM Call Sign History |url=http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/cgi-bin/ws.exe/prod/cdbs/pubacc/prod/call_hist.pl?Facility_id=25385 |work=FCC Media Bureau CDBS Public Access Database]
