Looks like a good chance at a nationally televised game or two. I'm guessing these would be on CBSSN:

Looks like we will play all three of those teams in Jamaica, and also host two other games against the other four participants in this tournament. Good stuff.

I will admit I am not excited about our roster for next season, but the schedule is definitely intriguing!

It’s very possible that you will never like the construction of a Mccasland UNT roster

I don’t think so. I am just not impressed with the recruits thus far and frustrated Woolridge is gone. I guess we will see what happens. Other than Simons and Gibson the rest of the team are all Mcaslands guys. Hopefully Smart plays like he did two years ago and a couple of the new guys surprise. I am interested to see what Wise will do. Here is to hoping I guess.

Jackson, Hamlet, and Reese are all very highly rated. Players who are rated similarly to them are High Major signees. Bell picked up about 15 offers and we beat out NC-Greensboro (29-7 last year) for Geu. The quality of these recruits is as impressive as we’ve seen probably since the 2011 class.

I thought that you would be more upset that Tope was gone.

I feel like this should be Cas best team even with Wooly gone. Face it if we were not hot on the perimeter we kinda suck. I feel like we should now have an inside game and guys that can hit mid range jumpers.we will also have a better rotation for resting guys. Wooly is a warrior, but having a point guard that does not have an outside shot and struggles at the line is challenging. Very excited with our new line up! GMG
