Its here.  Its here.

It should work with Directtv.  This is great news - and I can quit using other people's access...

This is the reason I haven't seen my iPad in months or on the rare occasion I do get it the battery is of course dead.  Dang kids.

Yeah, I'm surprised they say it's on WatchESPN since it's on Cox. I get both, so I'm good.

I bought an AppleTv and it's pretty awesome.  If my internet provider was part of the whole espn3 thing I might not have direct.

Don't shoot the messenger, but WatchESPN is subject to blackout for this weekends games.......hate when they do that. Wonder if Cox Sports would have any say in Direct carrying the games?

All three games will be televised on Cox Sports Television and broadcasted on the WatchESPN App with Alex Perlman (PXP) and Troy Eklund (Analyst) on the call. (Subject to Blackout)http://www.arkansasrazorbacks.com/news/razorbackbsb-travels-to-south-alabama-for-weekend-tourney-02-18-2015

Not showing up on WatchESPN in NWA either, but it is on Cox cable TV, channel 2080. Doesn't mean that it won't show up right before game time though.

Normally, even if it is blacked out, the game will still show up. When you click it, you'll get a message like "this event is not available in your area." So I don't think we should assume it is blacked out, at least not yet.

But it certainly isn't showing up on mine through dish.

Contacted Cox and they checked with ESPN and they claim that they have no intentions of blocking the games in any area this weekend. Cox claims they will not block them either. The Cox rep said she had a site to go to that customers cannot see and it does not show todays game being blocked. So, there's that. She also said that no other customers have called about the issue, so maybe a few calls would help seal the deal?

Hopefully it comes up on watch espn.

As for the blackouts there is always this:

Takes 3 minutes to dl and configure and you'll never worry about blackouts again.
