Why is the ESPN FULL COURT schedule "subject to change?"
The ESPN FULL COURT schedule is designed to offer fans the best schedule possible. The fluid nature of the schedule allows ESPN to add great college basketball match ups throughout the year. In a few instances, production changes may require ESPN to modify the schedule. ESPN FULL COURT will provide college basketball fans with more than 450 games of exciting hoops action from across the country!

Why aren't all the games listed on the ESPN FULL COURT schedule available to subscribers?
All games offered on ESPN FULL COURT are available to all cable systems and satellite providers nationwide. For a complete listing of games and times in your area please contact the local provider (some games on the previous schedule may not be available through the provider in your market). Some packages may not include the entire schedule.

Why are some games on the ESPN FULL COURT schedule also offered locally?
At times throughout the year, the ESPN FULL COURT schedule will feature games that are also available to you locally. This is a result of trying to build the most compelling ESPN FULL COURT schedule for a national audience. For example, the UConn vs. Boston College game on January 31 will be available on local television in the Hartford and Boston areas. ESPN FULL COURT customers in those markets would see the game on both local broadcast and ESPN FULL COURT.

Why would a game be "joined in progress?"
ESPN PPV has the ability to offer games on up to six channels at any one time. A "joined in progress" would normally occur in the following scenario: Game A is scheduled at 12pm on ESPN PPV Channel 1. Game B is scheduled at 2pm and also "slotted" to air on ESPN PPV Channel 1, too. College basketball games usually last approximately 2 hours. If Game A exceeds 2pm, Game B will be joined in progress at the conclusion of Game A. ESPN PPV builds the schedule to minimize the number of instances where a game must be joined in progress.

Why are games blacked out?
Blackouts are common in a number of out-of-market sports packages in order to protect local broadcast rights. Fortunately, the majority of games in the ESPN FULL COURT schedule do not require blackouts.
