ETSU will play in a four-team hoops tourney in Sioux Falls, S.D. Nov 25-27. SD State, Wis-Milwaukee and Cal-Irvine also playing.

Very nice!

We don't yet have a schedule thread, seems like its about time to start the discussion!

Cool!

All four schools had good years this past season. Should be a competitive tournament.

UW-Milwaukee beat Wisconsin and Minnesota on the road last year; lost two close ones to Valpo; split two with Oakland and lost 2 of 3 to UW-Green Bay.

The Jackrabbits are always tough, if we should get by Milwaukee.

I was thinking our Milwaukee guys might know some of their guys, but of the only 9 players on their roster at the moment, none appear to be from Milwaukee proper (although East Troy (the 6-9 Prahl twins), Grafton, and Germantown are nearby).

Based on the schedule, I think everyone plays each other no matter what.

I see... You are correct.

Those are 3 good teams (particularly South Dakota State). Irvine's 7-6 guy declared for the draft but hasn't signed with an agent.

Love to see us getting in little tourney's like this before conference play starts. Would like to see us participate in the NIT Season Tip off and/or the Charleston Classic

Nice early season challenge. But incorporating so many new players will have the Bucs very much a work in progress at that point.

Trial by fire. Never a better time than early season. No pain, no gain.

Yea, maybe a little closer to home playing more familiar teams, if possible.

Will the team really be that excited to spend their thanksgiving break in South Dakota?
