Former Arizona Wildcat Participants in TBT 2025 (12th Year of the Dog Days of Summer Annual Big Dance)

Gabe York
Terrell Brown
Blake Bommarito

York + Brown playing together on Eberlein Drive https://tbthoops.com/teams/eberlein-drive/
Blake Bommarito created DaGuys STL team using his Business skills acquired at UofA and much to the KC Cat's dismay he has recruited Wes Clark, a former Buffalo Bull and 1x TBT Champion, that knocked out the team that effectively created NIL.

Not my fault if you don't follow UofA Basketball enough to know about The Bommar

Don't proliferate hate.

More Updates will come as information comes.

It is actually the only ending that makes sense to any basketball game. I would open it up to 24 points instead of 8 for the NBA. You would all be crestfallen to see your team lose a game they were up by 10 letting their foots off the gas, playing poor quality basketball through the 4th quarter after being up by 20+ only to see a team surge back and outscore their opponent 34-23 over the Elam Ending. Don't think THAT can't happen in the Pro's easily.

This is about quality of the game and integrity of the sport at the end of the day. You don't win a game in the 3rd Quarter, unless you are OVERPAID to a NONSENSICAL degree where you DON'T CARE.

If you aren't a Pro, it is FANS FIRST AND ALWAYS or that makes anyone a Bootlicker.

Rawle Alkins hits an Elam Ender to send the #7 seeded LA Ignite past #2 Team Diesel.

Gabe York Advanced with Eberlein Drive to the Round of 32 as well.

DaGuysSTL had a great showing, but lost in a tie game going into the Elam vs the upstart Sheffield Sharks of the UK.

Almost every game in the Round of 64 had a compelling Elam. Maybe 3 or 4 wins going away. The rest were highly entertaining.

The level is getting higher every year!

A couple of the games saw some huge Elam comebacks. One was an 18pt deficit.

The level is high. The refs are not calling fouls every possession. Forcing teams to earn their buckets. Nothing too egregious. Respectable ball all around for the first round. I expect the 2nd round which started today to get called tighter.

There were probably as many "wow" comebacks as there were 10+ pt victories going away with 90% of the games being close in the Elam.

I think College needs to move to the Elam personally. 8pts may not be enough for the level of play in College or the NBA (For Overtime regular season), but I think 23pts would be reasonable for the NBA in Overtime makes sense given the amount of knockdown shooting.

College should probably add 15pts to the score at the end of a game and force teams to finish it the right way, not drain clocks and play the foul game. Especially College level would show true Coaching and Systems shining through with some herculean individual performances.

I get the push back, but far too often do teams simply lose games in a slow start or fall flat down the stretch and barely survive off of the prior body of work or a cheap foul call. (Anyone remember BYU last year??????)....

This is Sports and Entertainment now that players are paid so heavily and it is 100% safe to assume everyone is gambling on their player props at minimum these days.

I think the time will come in the next 5 seasons or so and/or is only a matter of time.

Gabe York and Fabled Zona Basketball Legend Terrell Brown Advance to the Round of 16 with Eberlein Drive. York led the charge!

Rawle Alkins dances on to the Round of 16! Cannot wait for the biopic of the man who truly started NIL

THIS IS THE ELAM END
MY ONLY FRIEND, THE ELAM END

The only way to truly defeat your opponent definitively is to sink a bucket.

Elam Ending.

NBA will make it the Jordan Ending.
