Bahama Bound: 2024 In-Season Tournament Announced

#7
#7
This year it’s an SEC, Big East, B12, and ACC. If it’s contracted it might be an ACC team and a team who’s not playing anyone or potentially anyone this season, a team most likely to be Top 25 , and a team not moving out to another conference in 2024.
My guess:
VIRGINIA

They are gonna have to start taking more than one team from the major conferences in these holiday tournaments with the conference expansion. Unless they are gonna grab up some mid-majors. Gonzaga is gonna get invited to every one of these the next few years.

A possible matchup with VFM, Chris Ledlum.

Watched a lot of St. John's-Michigan last night. Ledlum didn't impress me. Maybe he was having a bad game, but he didn't look that great and, more importantly, I don't know how his game would have really helped this team. He's not really a low post guy and what he brings to the table is already done and done better by some of Tennessee's current players. I can see why he bailed.

Anybody else watch him and think the same thing?

I watched some, and Ledlum was loving the outside shots when I watched. We’ve got about 5 guys I’d rather shoot the 3 than him.

I think a lot of people saw Ledlum's size and skill and pictured a possible reincarnation of Grant Williams in our system, and in game 1 against Stony Brook, he flashed that kind of ability (16 pts, 14 rebs, 4 assts, and he hit 2-3 3s). However, against a much better team in Michigan, he struggled. So it will be interesting to see which version of him is real. Likely in between. The real issue is minutes, though. He's averaging 29 minutes thru two games, and he would have played maybe half that at Tennessee with what we know we have, now. He probably would have gotten Phillips's 8.5 minutes and maybe take 3 each from JJJ and Aidoo.

I think a lot of people owe JJJ an apology. They wanted Ledlum over him. JJJ is way more valuable to this team than Ledlum would have been.

I still am a huge fan of Ledlum's game, and I think its possible that were he on a more talented team (like TN) he could scale down his game a bit and be a more efficient offensive player and crash the boards like crazy. Didnt see the Michigan game but dont want to judge him on one game, he'll have lots of showcases in the Big East

For this and Maui, I wonder what the percentage of ticket sales is between locals and travelers?

I don’t know if they do it like the battle4atlantis but you used to have to be staying at the resort to get tickets to the Atlantis one. I would guess Maui when on Maui was 90% tourists.
