We are live at the John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville for the 2008-2009 men’s basketball season opener between the University of Virginia and Virginia Military Institute.

The tip is scheduled for 4 p.m. The game is being broadcast on Comcast Sports Net in Virginia. Check your local listings for broadcast information.

VMI has already opened its ’08-’09 season, defeating Kentucky in the Rupp Arena on Friday night by an 111-103 final.
