The "03-04-05" launch date will help tip off the next day's start of Championship Week, ESPN and ESPN2's annual franchise featuring comprehensive coverage of men's and women's college basketball conference tournaments. ESPNU's first week of programming will include approximately 25 additional live conference tournament games (not currently on ESPN or ESPN2).
"March is a memorable time for college sports fans," Magnus said. "Given that, the start of Championship Week and the added bonus of the easy-to-remember '03-04-05' date, the launch timing is ideal. ESPNU will become a destination for the rich passion and pageantry of intercollegiate athletics."
Sounds like to me ESPN is playing off of "CSTV". An all college channel on 610 for DTV viewers.
There's a small write up saying that you'll have to check your local cable/satelite dealers to see if you're available. I'd have to think it will become a part of the regular programing...
