Bronco Mendenhall will open his tenure at Virginia with a contest just down the road in Richmond, though he won’t have to wait long to get back out West. The former Brigham Young head coach will try to improve on the Cavaliers’ 4-8 record a year ago starting with a nonconference schedule that has the Cavaliers traveling tp Oregon, which ended the year in the top 20, in the second week of the season.
Virginia starts conference play at Duke on Oct. 1 and plays three of its last four games on the road, the exception being Miami on Nov.
