College Basketball Officially Starts October 12th!

A new season of college basketball begins on Friday, October 12th.  ESPNU and ESPN3.com are giving viewers access to Midnight Madness at various schools (NC State, Kentucky, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, and Syracuse to name a few) and will be preparing you for what should be a very intriguing 2012-2013 season.  The Gators have not conducted a Midnight Madness since 2007, so they will be having their first traditional practice on Friday.  Media Day took place on Wednesday and Thursday of this week.  Hard to believe that the Gators first, and only, exhibition game is only 3 weeks away on November 1st versus Nebraska-Kearney.  I am currently working on several blog posts to get you prepared for another season of Gator basketball.  Everything from position previews to Media Day thoughts will be covered within the next couple of days.  I'm looking forward to keeping this blog running throughout the entire season, unlike last year.  So fasten your seat belts, it's going to be quite a journey this season for the Gators men's basketball team!
