North Carolina playing overseas basketball

[ThisIsWhyImHot]

My buddy told me that he read on a UNC forum where they are going to play some teams from Slovakia and other European countries. I think this could really be beneficial to a team like UT. Both for team cohesiveness because they are so young and to play against all the NBA level talent in Europe right now!

We are playing overseas I'm pretty sure. In August.

I think that's an awesome idea and I'm not positive but I thought last year or maybe coming up this year the vols were going overseas.

they're playing a summer league and going overseas. Lofton has also been invited to try out for team USA.

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Great news for Lofton.

 

[ut 4 me]

i don't want lofton to play for team USA, there is more chance of him getting hurt

 

[TennesseeFan07]

He'll be fine. Until the ankle he had never been injured in his career.

 

[ut 4 me]

still......i would feel better if he didn't

 

[TennesseeFan07]

Ah, he'll be alright and he'll benefit from it.

Should we sit him the first 10 games, too? He'll be fine, if anything he'll be much better for it.
