Does anyone know if ESPN Full Court is likely to pick up more games as we near the season? If I remember correctly, the original MU ESPN Full Court schedule last year was updated right before the season to include a handful more MU games.
For example, the UWMilwaukee game is shown as being televised locally, but is not listed on the Full Court schedule. Is ESPN likely to pick it up? That was one of the games they did tend to pick up last year after the original schedule came out.
I plan on purchasing Full Court nonetheless, but would love to hear that I might catch nearly all games ala 2007-2008 on Full Court.
Thanks in advance...
I hope that is right. would be annoying to not watch that beat-down. also, was hoping to watch the Chi Inv games over T-day weekend.
Hey guys - I live in Tampa, FL and am looking into getting the Full Court package. I should get all of the 14 MU games down here and never be blackouted, right? I would assume so since I'm so far away from Milwaukee. Have never done this before, so I want to make sure before I buy the package. Thanks for the help.
will these games all once again be on SNY which is actually HD? and only $11 a month?

This should help answer some questions. See the SNY Big East televised games link above. A bunch of our November & December games are tape delayed. Enjoy the SNY doubleheader on the Saturday of Thanksgiving weekend.

6 bucks if you have dish, but it doesn't look like the channel is in HD.

SNY is in HD as well
looks like they mixed up the schedules this year...whereby you need to buy both channels...the last two years i did not buy full court becuase i could watch every single game on MASN< SNY etc if i just baought the sports pack fro 3-4 months. Looks like I will need to buy both is that correct?

I'm curious about the Shorewood State game too, as I'll be out of town that weekend, and was counting on having Full Court/ESPN 360 access to watch it.
Doing a quick breakdown...the games you will miss just having the Sportspack and not having Full Court are:
Chicago State, Texas Southern, Central Michigan, 1/7 v. Rutgers, 1/31 v. G'Town, and 2/21 v. St. Johns.
I think then every other game will be on ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, or SNY. ESPN Full Court is like $100, so is it worth a hundo to see those 6 games in my house...eh, I might just have to venture out to my sports bar for those.

How much is Full Court on Comcast in Chicago? Anyone know? I couldn't find out from the comcast.com site.
Where's ChicosBailBonds been hiding?
it is $100....

Most of them should be, but remember that just because the channel is in HD, doesn't mean the games are broadcast in HD from the site of the games. Many of them will just be upconverted SD games. Still better broadcast quality then Full Court SD games from ESPN.
If I were buying, I'd get Sports Pack instead of Full Court if both options were available to me. But for folks that have a distributor that doesn't carry a RSN package, Full Court would be the next best option.

It does go to a half season price in January. Just a FYI
