The ACC has just released the 2010-11 conference basketball schedules. This year,  all-time highs in national television appearances and games televised, as well as a record-tying number of overall TV appearances, highlight the 2010-11 Atlantic Coast Conference basketball schedule. The league's 12 member schools are scheduled to make an ACC-record 182 national television appearances, breaking the record of 179 set a year ago. In addition, ACC teams will appear in 198 games, topping the 193-game mark first set in 2008-09 and matched last year. League schools will also make 300 overall TV appearances, tying the league mark, originally set in 2008-09. Virginia's schedule, with at least 7 ESPN appearances, is after the jump.

We apologize for the recent delay in coverage, but big things are happening with StreakingtheLawn, as we move our headquarters from New York to Washington, D.C. over this Labor Day weekend. The site will also be undergoing some major changes soon -- changes that will provide you with greater coverage, multimedia, and interaction. You'll still have the same crew providing you with constant coverage of all Virginia sports, a program that has accumulated 100 ACC titles and 20 team national titles. We're looking forward to building this site into bigger and better things, and to be the fancentric media source you've grown to rely on.

Football season kicks off in 14 days, and while most of you are anxiously awaiting the start of the London Era (see, right) and seeing what a return to the tight end era and a switch to a 4-3 defense will bring to Cavalier Country, we must also take the time to recognize that there are, in fact, other football programs out there competing. Each week, StreakingtheLawn will participating in the BlogPoll, a poll hosted by SB Nation and run by Brian from MGoBlog, a Michigan blog. It features over 100 unabashedly biased bloggers ranking which teams they think are the Top 25. After the jump, you’ll find my contribution this week – yes, Boston College made my cut.

It's move-in weekend in Charlottesville, which means residents can expect Harris Teeter, Wal-Mart, Target, and all of Emmet St. to be overflowing with bright-eyed, bushy-tailed kids. But it also means that Virginia sports is officially back in action. It hasn't been as long of an off-season for Virginia as for lowlies like Duke, Carolina and Maryland, since Virginia's sports season extends well into June, but for Cavaliers fans, it's been all too long. Women's soccer and field hockey have already seen preseason action, but here's a look ahead and what you can expect this weekend.

It's the usual suspects at the top of the football recruiting rankings. Texas and Alabama are Nos. 1 and 2, followed by the supporting cast of Oklahoma, Ohio State, LSU, and crew. But scroll down a little further – do you see Virginia Tech? If so, you've gone too far. Because at least for now, ESPN ranks the Virginia Cavaliers' 2011 Recruiting Class as the 18th best in the nation, and Virginia and Mike London one of this year's top movers and shakers. Scout.com ranks Virginia No. 23 in the nation at the time of this column.
