I Bleed Green - 2024 TBT Tourney

[ScreamingEaglesFan]

We're face LA Ignite in the first round of this year's tournament. Things look pretty good because one the game is in Houston and they're in the Houston bracket.

Also looking at the Ignite roster is not an alumni team, they are from various different teams and they're not from traditional power basketball programs. Plus with it being in Houston maybe we can get some fans there to cheer them on.

Good win .  We will miss Reese.  Zach played well .  I think Deng has more in him.

This whole thing seems very forced. I obviously hope our guys go get that money and Kai Huntsberry is my favorite transfer player of all time. Matter of fact, how I pay for something signed by him?

What do you mean forced?  Also Reece finished his season yesterday.   He's on the way.  The whole airplane Microsoft thing mucked it up.   He's coming from Venezuela

Forced was bad wording. Not sure what I was meaning. I follow it, and cheer them fellas on. Kai got something set up for autographs?

Will these games eventually be on espn+?

TBT website streamed the first game for free.  All you had to do is sign up/set up a login account with them.  They don't ask for payment information.

Not sure how many rounds that will be the case.

Good win.  A dominating second half by Bleed Green!

I watched a few of the games yesterday and All Good Dogs (Butler alums) look like the real deal!

How is it that some games get FS1, FS2 and even Fox for game coverage and we didn't?

I think you’ll see more and more coverage on better networks as popularity/awareness grows.

this is the first year they are getting coverage on Fox

Look at the teams they chose to televise. Some things never change.
