Ever since the Comcast/NBC merger, it's been expected that VERSUS would be rebranded to reflect the NBC marriage and today, at long last, we have the new name for VERSUS.
NBC Sports today is reporting that effective January 2, 2012, the VERSUS brand will retire and the NBC Sports Network will debut. This is just another subtle change to the NBC Sports group this year. We've already seen the VERSUS website close, NBC's golf coverage is known as The Golf Channel on NBC and rumors and speculation that the regional Comcast SportsNet's would change to reflect the NBC marriage.
In addition to the announcement of the VERSUS rebrand, NBC also introduced a new logo for NBC Sports which you can see at the link above.
