UCONN TBT Coming (Stars of Storrs)

Great initiative by Marc. He tweeted that, if they win the million, 10% goes to his NIL, 10% to the coaching staff, 10% to each of the 8 players. Visionary!

Former UConn champs to compete for $1 million in The Basketball Tournament | FOX Sports

Three players who won national titles at UConn have committed to the Stars of Storrs to compete for the first time in the 64-team, bracket-style tournament.

Roster not complete. Head Coach and GM selected.

- Boatright and Daniels will reunite as teammates after bringing home the national title in 2014. They will join Calcaterra, who was a part of the Dan Hurley-led 2023 championship team.

- Stars of Storrs was organized by University of Connecticut alum Marc D’Amelio and the D’Amelio Huskies Collective, which has been assisting UConn student athletes, including current hoopers Donovan Clingan, Stephon Castle, and Hassan Diarra, with name, image, and likeness (NIL) opportunities since it was founded in 2022. If the Stars of Storrs wins TBT’s $1 million prize, $100,000 will be donated to the Collective.

- D’Amelio will serve as the team’s general manager, while Chris Smith, UConn’s all-time leading scorer, will be the team’s head coach.

-
TBT’s 64-team field is composed of eight regionals with eight teams in each, all hosted on the campus of a powerhouse college basketball team. If Stars of Storrs advances out of the Pittsburgh Regional, they’ll play in TBT’s quarterfinals on July 29.

- TBT’s semifinals and $1 million championship game will be held August 2 and August 4 at Drexel University in Philadelphia.
 
I remember when Josh Boone played in this with the Barstool sponsored team when TBT was first launched. I believe they ended up losing in the championship to the ND team. Awesome tournament to watch though
 
Roster so far is:
Ryan Boatright
RJ Cole
Joey California
Deandre Daniels
Jeff Adrien

Guessing there's 3-5 more slots open? Wouldn't mind seeing a Phil Nolan or Gavin Edwards addition to help with the front court.

Adrien had an old man game when he was 19. What on earth is it going to look like at 37?

Does he go full YMCA or does he do a Benjamin Button and start stroking 3s as a big?
