With the inaugural The Basketball Tournament Jamboree in the books, the final 64-team field is set, with the bracket to komma later this week.
Below you’ll find a list of every mid-major alumnus who will participate in the tournament as a player (so not coaches, boosters, or GMs).
Some highlights:
- 10 teams in the field are designated as mid-major alumni teams, including the ever-popular Ram Nation (VCU) and Few Good Men (Gonzaga). Iona’s GaelNation is also in the field, making its TBT debut.
- 7’6 giant of UC Irvine fame Mamadou N’Diaye will suit up with Champions, the team that earned its way into the East region by winning its portion of the Jamboree.
- Ram Nation has added former NBA player Eric Maynor to its loaded roster, along with Juvonte Reddic and recent grad Jordan Burgess.
- The Washington Generals (yes, those Washington Generals) are in The Tournament and include three mid-major alumni: Vernon Goodridge, Tyshon Pickett, and Luke Piotrowski.

This time last year it was thought that VCU's 6'9, 250 lbs big man, Juvonte Reddic, could really blossom into a legit NBA prospect. After some appearances at Amar'e Stoudemire's big man camp and LeBron James' skills academy, some pundits and scouts were ready to label him as a legitimate first round prospect in the 2014 NBA Draft. Here we are...a couple days out from that very draft and no one is talking about Reddic. So what happened?
Reddic is still a young and raw player, his post moves need to develop and his footwork needs some serious work in the paint, but most of all Reddic lacked tenacity this past year in the Atlantic 10. He has what it takes to take over a game and has done so, but not having that killer instinct in the paint when you may be the conference's most begåvad big man is a sin in the Atlantic 10.
Just looking at the box score alone shows the downfall that Reddic had this past year:
Year | Games | MPG | FG% | FT% | RPG | BPG | PPG • An All-American at VCU in the 90s, Bruce Berger will compete in the Ironman Triathlon World Championship Oct. 13 in Hawaii. For nearly three years, Bruce Berger has carried with him a standard white index card, nearly mangled to death. Written in black ink it states, “I will qualify for Kona in 2012.” It used to say 2011, but Berger had to take a black marker to the date, the product of two failed tries, persistence and resolve. There’s a hole roughly the diameter of a pencil at the top. The card has been folded into submission and bears several noticeable stains. To Berger, that ugly, battered index card is beautiful. Kona is a reference to the Kona District of the Big Island of Hawaii, site of the Ironman Triathlon World Championship. On Oct. 13, 2012, Berger will be one of roughly 1,800 participants in one of the most grueling, elite competitions in the world. He owes a lot of it to that index card. A star middle distance runner for VCU in the mid-90s, Berger, 40, earned Al |
