The Crown Tourney

[BugsyCT]

Starting today in Vegas. Is anyone watching this?

If they don't have all 17 people in the crowd drinking Crown Peach, Crown Apple, Crown Vanilla, etc., it's a blown opportunity.

If ever there was a great opportunity to pay players to shave points…

Think that Utah fan shrieking on every Butler free throw probably had a few of them.

It's fortunate that you have such low standards. I doubt there are many on this board who could deal with following a program like Cincinnati's.

No

You would only have about a 100% chance of getting caught.

Crown Royal Manhattans aka CRMs was our drink of choice on Y2K project. Very tasty.

But I will probably not be watching

Dixon will be cheesily setting the all time Nova scoring record in this Willy Wonka of a tourney under an interim coach.

A very odd tournament. Teams with losing records and it’s April. Wild idea but would it make sense for them to invite BE Big or Big12 teams that lost in rounds 1 or 2 of ncaa tournament to this? Call it the crown second chance tournament???

 

[REB1094]

Yikes I had completely forgotten about this lol

Can't imagine ratings are doing very well on this. Would be surprised by a Year 2 at this point

How do you think Mohegan gets all the great concerts? Money is not the issue.

 

[huskyjawz]

Sucks that they killed the NIT with this.

 

[kobe]

those are the kinds of teams you guys got to play in the church league every night?

must be nice to face such inferior competition, no wonder it is so easy to make the ncaa's from that poverty league

 

[boog204]

Why would they start this now? I have no issue with having a NIT like thing but it’s April.

 

[auror]

I think George Washington losing by 30 in the Crown is going to win me a prize in a year-long contest based on KenPom ranks lol.

 

[BugsyCT]

They should of played it early. Nobody is watching it this week. Everyone is looking forward to the ncaa final four.

It's filler for the hoop junkies who need their fix during Final Four week.

DePaul even gets crushed in the CBC
