My first thought is that I have never been to Hawaii. My second thought is that if JAB retires after this upcoming season he will miss this and a new coach will take the squad there. Is that realistic or would 2023-24 now be the favorite to be JAB's farewell season.

A particularly strong field at the 2023 Maui Invitational will feature Gonzaga and six other high-major programs, according to a school news release.

16 total national championships!

Wowzas! I'll be in Maui next month. And I will most definitely be there in the fall of 2023. I go every 6 months or so. This is great news.

I think JB has said he doesn't like these trips, FWIW, but I may be mistaken.

 

[Cuse1055]

Boeheim will definitely be there whether it’s as the coach or a spectator.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Starting to think this isn’t JB’s last season.

We got to pick it up in regards to play on the court to compete with that field

There are five teams in the field that we cannot beat.

Eh, it’s college hoops. Anyone can beat anyone in a one game situation.

Okay, I went to hawaii for the 1996 tournament. Let's start with the woman I took, well, we didn't speak for two years after the trip. No kidding. And who did we face in Hawaii. Ill. with Ryan Blackwell and Rhode Island and UMass. Yep. I went all the way to Hawaii to watch the Orange play two New England teams. I will not be in Maui.

 

[Fly Rodder]

we'll see what the team looks like, maybe I'll go. Last time I was in Hawaii, I watched the 6OT game in a poolside bar.

Dash you can't ask people to join the Mile High Club on the first date. Come on now.

You know who’s on all these teams in 2023?

The hell you can’t.

JB isn't going anywhere...
Well, except Maui!

 

[5OutFred]

Anyone who has been to the tournament in recent years, what type of $$$ are we talking for the whole 'Maui experience'?

 

[Tom W.]

This has definitely got my attention. Let the planning begin! Who has gone before?

Agree!
