You'd crush a poker tournament there too for good measure.I would fly there for that
That would be part of the plan. Although I play a lot more cash games now.You'd crush a poker tournament there too for good measure.
I’m all for this. Clearly we have to get creative with NIL because what we are doing isn’t working.Syracuse basketball finalizing deal to play in 2025 event with millions in NIL payouts

Yes, in the sense that nearly all insider accounts say we are behind the top 20-40 or so schools in terms of resources and have been unable to compete for top transfer portal talent over the past two seasons.Not working?
For 2024, where they are only inviting 8 teams, I read that they have no decided on the format yet. I think they are going to create 2 4 team METs (rather than a true 8 team MTE like the Maui Classic).So we could potentially play Duke/Virginia OOC and then in conference as well?
All well said. And Syracuse is slated for 2025...For 2024, where they are only inviting 8 teams, I read that they have no decided on the format yet. I think they are going to create 2 4 team METs (rather than a true 8 team MET like the Maui Classic).
This is because the NCAA has a rule that a team cannot play in a given MET more than once every 4 years.
Most of the teams in this are said to have signed up for 3 years. I think the tournament organizers are planning to go to 4 METs in 2025, each with 4 teams, and get around the once every 4 years MET limitation by placing teams in different METs each of the 3 seasons they play in the event.
If this happens, and more than one team from a conference plays, they will surely act to place the teams from the same conference in different METs.
It's all pay for play, except no it's not.Lol this is stupid and absolutely is pay for play but I can drive to Vegas and would absolutely go to this so whatever.
I know some people with a much better feel for the numbers that would dispute that statement.Yes, in the sense that nearly all insider accounts say we are behind the top 20-40 or so schools in terms of resources and have been unable to compete for top transfer portal talent over the past two seasons.

Mets - Have highest payroll in MLB - Dont winGood to hear! Let’s start using it!
Yes, it's slated to be held around Thanksgiving. I believe the tentative dates for the 2024 tourney are November 26, 27 and 29, but nothing has been finalized, that I'm aware of, for dates in 2025, when Syracuse would play.Is this a Thanksgiving tournament? Or what is the possible dates? Asking for a lady who lives not too far away from Vegas.
