Longhorn Network HD?

[zippyfrog]

I noticed that last night's Longhorn mens basketball game was not in HD. I thought that the live games would be broadcast in HD. Is that only live Football games? Or was last night a heavy bandwidth night and Dish didn't have the capacity to show the game in HD? I think I have only seen one event in HD even though Longhorn Network has many live sporting events - the only live event was the football game last month.

NBA, NHL, and Add in opening night of CBK and it likely was just a heavy night. They didn't even air all the PAC 12 games

The Iowa State-Texas game was in HD. That is the only game I have been interested in watching.

That was the only game LHN actually aired in HD.

That's what I thought - that football game was the only thing that has aired in HD. I know that there are a lot of sporting events that are on live on LHN, and I know that there are some nights there is a shortage of bandwidth, but it seems like even on the days there have been next to no major sporting events, none of the Texas games have been in HD. Back before PAC12 was in HD full time, they showed the Water Polo live in HD, the soccer games, etc. It was beyond the normal sports. And here in Chicago, CSN Chicago pretty much has all live games in HD - we even have high school football games shown in HD like we did yesterday. Just very surprised how few LHN games have been in HD.

Seems like Dish is giving it the regular RSN treatment.
