AFAIK, they haven't scrapped the rule that says only 1 team per conference in a tournament.

Scrap GMU and UR, add in Radford and Hampton or NSU

Or even VT/UVA

You would also have to scrap either JMU or W&M.

VT, VCU, ODU, JMU would be my bet. Radford and Hampton if they have more than 4 teams.

Radford and Hampton are both in the Big South Conference.

Gosh dangit Hampton, why you gotta be moving conferences and making me look dumb?

Uhhhhh, Radford and Liberty then I guess probably.

NCAA issued a blanket waiver for this season

Multiple teams from the same conference can participate in an MTE and schools can play two MTEs.

Don't forget Longwood is D-I Hoops too. You could throw them to the mix for this Richmond Tourney

We're playing at JMU on 12/7.

For the Richmond games, JMU is playing GMU at VCU on 12/12.

Thanks, Dev!

CUSA is apparently considering Friday-Saturday games, which means one less night in a hotel.

Maybe we can just get them to play in a complex with multiple courts and a curtain hanging between them and knock both games out at the same time. You can sub dudes out of one game and into the other. It will be pretty fun to see how coaches balance their rotations.

Yes! Outdoor court too.

KenPom model expects a rebound for us this year. We come in at 99 to start.
