Title: When does practice start, officially?
Post by: denverMU on September 26, 2013, 02:16:21 PM
From what I have read, NCAA changed rules this spring and teams are allowed to start practicing 42 days before the first game.  By my count that is this Friday.  Are we beginning practice Friday?  Also, are we playing any scrimmages with other schools this year?

Great question (that I can't find the answer to). Boot Camp must start soon?

Yeah practice starts tomorrow, so I'd assume bootcamp is next week because I think it's normally 5 days long.

I believe bootcamp has traditionally been the week before official practice (i.e. ending on the day of Madness).  Maybe that has changed with the new practice rules.  It seems like there would have been some word about it, if it was going on this week.

Right, 42 days before THEIR respective first game. So, different start dates. MU's is tomorrow.

Boot camp in the past was prior to the start of full practice.

Most years official practices could begin 4 weeks in advance of date of the first possible game date. This year because of the calendar (old rules were START: Friday nearest Oct 15 and FIRST GAME ALLOWED second Fri of Nov) official practice would have only been for 3 weeks. Because of the change it is 6 weeks this year (and will be from here on out as the variability has been removed - it's 42 days from your first scheduled game.

Because of practice limitation under the old and new rules, the impact on THIS SEASON is that total practice hours can be doubled. But, ... lots of teams will just do some of their boot camp type work within the official practice schedule... so it won't be quite as much skill work as double for many teams.

Again, this is something the masses got wrong. This May 3 article addressed how 99% of the media hosed up their stories on the rule change (http://latenighthoops.com/ncaa-practices-leg-2013/#.UkSNq4akq8w).

Had to look her up.

Body is great, but she's young.

Face? Tranny-ish. Lips are goofy, eyebrows, nose... all off.

She's probably a 7 right now. May be less than a 5 in 15 years. Not a keeper.

I think boot camp is about 10 days long and ends a day or two before madness. I could be wrong, though.
