ESPNU HD

Anyone know the date it goes live? My USF Bulls are playing this weekend on ESPNU.

The educated guess would be 1 day after football season ends

I think it was August 28th. Hope Dish gets it soon.

It is live now. However, not available on Dish yet.

Have no fear, both Dish and Directv are fiercely working to get us the best prices on the best programming

Yep, maybe Charlie is waiting to add it until after the football season in order to, "save you subscribers some money."

Has ESPNU shown everything in HD so far?

Please tell me it isn't like CBS-C HD. I have seen ZILCH for HD so far. The scoreboard is for 16x9 but the PQ an upconverted looking picture for all the football replays I have seen so far.

As a fellow Dish sub I obviously haven't seen it either, but this site says essentially the games and their College Football Live show are in HD...

Live games are in HD. I read somewhere that when ESPN announced it, that it said it has 5 initial providers that are going to carry it and Dish was one of the 5.
