BB Tournments

[Mo Green]

Charleston SC is beautiful in November and it seems Georgia Tech,LSU,Northwestern, St. Joe, Seton Hall, Tulsa is there along with WKU. When were our guys in a tounnment (nonncaa) that had class like that, anyone know? O,utsa is touring down under-Australia- for 10 days & going to the nit. How are they getting into these things? It seems we can only dream about these things & hope we win our tournment in arky in March.

7 months earlier than usual. Who had July/August in the pool?

WKU's tournament is one of the ESPN sponsored MTEs. WKU is arguably the bottom end of TV appeal, they got the invite because people recognize the name from their NCAA runs a few years back. We don't have that yet.

Foreign pre-season exhibitions are allowed once every four years. As far as "dreaming" about them... It's not a dream for anyone who wants to pay for it. MTSU is going to Canada, FAU and Denver went overseas last year out of the Sun Belt. Teams usually use those foreign tours as a way to develop younger teams; a lot of us think we may take one next summer when all our new recruits will be sophomores.

I would think a tourny would do this team a lot of good with how young it is. It's just that many more games under their belt before Sun Belt play.

Gotta raise the expectations!

Based on our incoming freshman class I'd like to see UNT in a tournament next year. Hopefully Tony Mitchell will be back next season, then watch out!!!

What if we had an all Metro-plex tournament...TCU, SMU, UTA and UNT...thoughts?

This is funny on so many different levels.

You know what this tournament and the Sun Belt Conference tournament have in common? 1 team that made the NCAA tournament.

You know who that team is playing in lovely Charleston in November? The 1 team playing in this tournament you didn't deem important enough to list...Virginia Commonwealth...THE story of last year's Dance.
