So far Deandre Liggins, Doron Lamb , and Willie Cauley-Stein
There is your 3 point specialist and 2 defensive specialists. I can't wait loved watching last summer! @DraftCat can you combine mine with this or just delete mine thanks.
I'd go if they could get Cousins to come. He would dominate still.
My bad they can delete this one . I didn’t see your post
It's all good buddy they can just combine them and run with this one not a big deal. I love having those 3 to start this TBT for the summer it's going to be a fun tournament.
Could you imagine if Wall came too like Holly Crap.....
Need a couple "younger" guys. Best player last year (Kanter's brother) wasn't even a UK player. Nice run last year, just need a couple studs. IMO.
Would love to see the Harrison twins back. Get Cousins and Bledsoe too
Should be a lot less awkward this year with Cals leaving not being so fresh as well
Could you imagine
Bledsoe, Harrison , Harrison, Cousins, Lamb , Liggins , and WCS they might as well just give the 2 million to that team!
If they get Wall + Cousins + Bledsoe, it will sell out within minutes. To have those guys in UK gear and get to root for them against competition again...
I’d love to see wall and cousins back. I would also love to see Patrick Patterson back. I haven’t heard anything from him since he left. One of my favorite players of all time. He and Jodie Meeks were the stars that shown brightest in our darkest days.
I’d love to see one of my other favorite players, Darius Miller back. I play world of Warcraft and I named a character of mine after Miller. He was the glue to that 2012 team.

Looks like the Harrisons are rejoining too.
Andrew Harrison, Aaron Harrison, Doron Lamb, Deandre Liggins, and WCS so far. That’s a great team put together so far.

Isaiah Briscoe would be really good in this format. Patterson, Miller, and Meeks would be dream adds but we absolutely need a couple more guys who are in their playing prime. Derek Willis and Nate Sestina would be great. Where’s Reid Travis? Kellan Grady? Davion Mintz?
Maybe more will get on board after seeing who is playing this time. I hope Nate Sestina comes back he was punishing teams with his outside shooting. I'm optimistic that some of these mentioned, will want to play and finish the job this year.
Josh Harrelson is still playing in Japan. Bring back Jorts!?
I was looking at the other teams and it looks like Jim Boeheim will be building the roster and running practices and Boeheim's Army(Syracuse alumni).
Gotleib has filed a waiver to get his current college team into the TBT (Green Bay). Interesting, and it does make sense.
It makes zero sense.
Everyone trying to use the legal system to ruin everything we love in sports.
Just leave it alone.
Gottlieb has always been, and will always be, a complete and total tool.
I’m saying it makes sense for a small school that wants to do their overseas tour and play against pro/older players but that costs a lot of money. Just play in the TBT and (not win anything) but save money on travel costs.
Why does it make zero sense?
I don’t really see a sound argument against it. The NCAA already lets teams play in summer overseas tournaments where they play against pro teams, so what’s the difference if they just do this instead of that? And the prize money is no longer an issue now that CBB players can be paid.
So why not allow it?
I think it takes away from the purpose, and the enjoyment of the fan. Which if Green Bay is allowed, what would stop it from becoming a straight college event?
I agree with this. Part of the appeal is UK alum playing n it. Same with other teams I'm sure.
As I said n another thread this dog crap green bay team would gett annihilated game 1 anyways.
Maybe the fact that most college teams would get their asses kicked by a team full of older seasoned pros?
I normally don't like Gottlieb, but I think his logic is rock solid on this one. The NCAA already allows one overseas trip every four years. But the problem is underfunded little mid-majors like UWGB can't afford to those trips. The money for it just ain't in their budget. So why not let them do this instead?
Makes perfect sense to me.
Give me (I doubt Wall would play, being that he doesn't need a pay check).

The entry fee is $15,000 per team, plus they still need travel costs, most teams still need to travel and cover a couple of week's worth of hotels, food, flights, etc.
Might save a few bucks depending on where the foreign tour is played, but it's not like it would be monumental savings.
