We've never won a tournament that mattered like the Maui and the BFA. The other tournaments we've won in the past, I did not feel like this afterwards. It was oh, cool. We beat Seton Hall, random school that is okay at best, and another okay at best basketball school.

Did we not win Maui when we beat Villanova buddy's year?

Speaking of, I listened to a pod yesterday with two well-known and respected college hoops reporters and they think that the 3-game tourneys, including Maui and Atlantis, may have to change their formats soon because apparently a lot of coaches don't like playing 3 games in those events. They said the coaches and schools don't want to give up that many home games, since they lose out on revenue. As a fan, I sure hope they are wrong. I agree with you -- two-game events just don't have the same juice, even if all four teams are good.

Anything for more $$$'s to the teams.. lame.

Killing college sports a little bit more day by day. Can't wait for the expanded 76 team march madness.. Shortly thereafter, to be replaced with the 100 team (sigh) ect.

No, that was just a head-to-head game at Pearl Harbor. We haven't been in Maui since Capel led us to an 0-3 record with a loss to Chaminade in the 7th place game in 2010.

This has me wondering -- any news on what event we are in next season?
