Always thought practice officially started around October 15th, but I’ve seen some teams across the country start practice this week. Do we get a later start because we went on that trip to Spain and got extra practices in during the summer?

I think it's a certain amount of time before your first game, so it's probably team by team basis. I don't think 10/15 would be relevant anymore since college basketball starts in like July now.

Agree...so with exhibition on November 3rd...my guess is the ball starts bouncing in the convo next week.

You can begin practice 42 days from your first scheduled game. And practice being defined as, you get the 20 hour week instead of the 8 hour week.

So by this measure, full-time practice should have already started. Does anybody know for sure?
