It’s Christmas in July anytime we get any off-season Virginia Cavaliers basketball content. A release of a non-conference schedule where we already knew most opponents and/or dates might not qualify as newsworthy to some. But those people are boring, and we don't want to associate ourselves with them anyway.
This non-conference schedule has the perfect balance of revenge-seeking matchups, “buy” games, and tough neutral-site opponents that will certainly pay off in one way or another at the end of the season.
