...the start of women's basketball practice, I thought you might enjoy this.

vu. commodores. com did do a good writeup on the first day of men's practice along with player and coach interviews. And, the men's twitter account did mention the start of practice. So, there's that at least.

They posted a video on twitter this evening . . .



Nicely produced video, but somewhat short on basic info, like, was today actually the first official practice? If not, when is it?

Honestly, I don't think old-time, old-school fans are the target of this kind of social media post. I'd rather see a well-written article with specific info. But I don't think I'm the target; rather, I think the target is the younger set, especially recruits and to a lesser extent younger fans. I actually don't have a problem with that approach; attracting younger fans and appealing to recruits seems like a very good idea to me, and though I'm not an expert, it seems like a well-done video to me. So though it isn't my own personal cup-of-tea, I don't have a problem with it.
