Lots on tap today for VCU fans. You’ve got volleyball in St. Louis for a pivotal match, plus women’s soccer and field hockey on the road for important A-10 matches. But I know a lot of you out there are juiced about the start of basketball practice today. I offered some notes from VCU Men’s Basketball Coach Shaka Smart’s Wednesday press conference yesterday, but there’s certainly more to it than that. Scott Day was nice enough to compile a list of links that will interest you hoops junkies:
