    XU Alumni Team: The Basketball Tournament (2021)

    TBT recently announced that Xavier Alumni will officially be applying to join the tournament next year!

    Twitter Link

    I've marginally followed this tournament in the past. Does anyone know what it takes to go from "applied" to be in the tournament to actually in the tournament?

    I'm already getting excited thinking about some of the possible lineups we could throw out there. This could be fun!

    Off the top of my head of those in their prime or not far off:

    Tu
    Jalen
    Farr
    Crawford
    Semaj
    Stainbrook
    Lyons
    JP
    Tre (not sure he would qualify)
    Tyrique


    That's a solid group right there. All professional level players. I'm sure I've missed some.

    Would add to the pool of possibles:
    Remy (played well last year, team went to finals)
    Dee Davis
    Malcolm Bernard
    Sean O’Mara

    I would think Ed will still be on an NBA roster next year.

    Who else?

    Redford!?

    Looks like he's been the starting PF for a Japanese league team the last few years. Just started his 3rd season there last week.

    Somewhere on their website they used to explain the process. I watched it the past few seasons. It's pretty good basketball. Somewhere between College, NBA, and International.
