Can’t attend Hoops Mania?

No problem (or so we think). Villanova is advertising that you can watch Hoops Mania tonight (which is only open to students and season ticket holders) on ‘Nova Nation All-Access, which you can sign up for here.

I believe that a subscription costs $9.99 per month, but they will also be showing a lot of basketball games that aren’t picked up by TV during the early portion of the season.

Then again, this has been one of the more unreliable tools that the Villanova Athletic Dept. has employed. It hasn’t worked a lot in the past. So sign up at your own risk.

Hoops Mania, the unofficial start to each Villanova Basketball season now has a date. It will be October 23rd, and doors will open at approximately 6:30 p.m.

As always, the Blue-White scrimmage will be a big part of the evening. It’s the first time that the masses get a preview of the players on the team, and more specifically, the freshman.

No word yet on any special guests for the musical portion of the evening, but it will remain hard to top the surprise appearance of 50 Cent from a couple years ago.

…Hat tip to VUHoops for the link…

By the way, in case you missed it, the Philadelphia alumni function has been changed from October 15th to October 16th. This event is located at Villanova and includes and open practice from 6:00-7:00 p.m. and then a reception in Bartley Hall from 7:00-8:30. The cost of this event is $40 and you can order tickets by calling Vanessa at 610-519-3293.
