Congrats Book!
A team largely comprised of the players who knocked off Arizona in March Madness. The reigning Champions Blue Collar U is almost entirely the Buffalo team that knocked off Arizona as the 13 seed. Hope these teams meet in the Finals.
Best of luck to Book. He deserves the best in life and I hope he wins it all.
Perhaps the TBT will have enough viewers to beat out the Little League World Series if all the family members of the players actually watch this summer. Somebody cares, right?

It is on ESPN+ this year, so no, it won't have heavy CASUAL sports fan viewership unless you pay for ESPN+, but that also means they are making more money than ever to be featured amongst ESPN+'s marketing and sponsor list. So whether you think it's a quality product or not, it is making money and getting more competitive every year. It runs from today the 19th through August 2nd, so I don't think that even overlaps with the LLWS. Nice try.
TBT is lightyears more entertaining than NBA Summer League for the Elam Ending alone.
Joking, regarding the LLWS. The competition is absolutely improving on an annual basis. I still don't have interest in watching but yes...a MUCH better product than NBA "anything" (especially Summer League).

Book is hanging with KU. Would love to see him get a big job again in the near future. Would be well-deserved.
Book doing work.
I love it!

Good for Book. I was hoping he would have been able to take Xavier's alum further in TBT (Fran's favorite tournament), but it has gotten extremely competitive and Alumni teams may not be able to take it down going forward. The money is pretty "gettable" for anyone who actually wants to go for it and it is only over the course of a couple weeks. Not a big commitment.
Book paid a heavy price. He deserves another shot. BTFD Book !!
Good for Book, I'm happy to hear this indeed!
