Just about. $96,600 for winning Wichita, by far the biggest regional check.

Could you explain how that works, I did not know that. Thanks.

This year, the regional winners get 25% of the gate at that location.  MU’s alums take is probably the largest by far due to the Wichita St. prescience.

The Wichita site sold really well because they held it in their full size arena and in addition to WSU fans, they also had teams from Kansas & K-State there. I think most of the sites were smaller arenas (like the Al) and didn't have as many large, local fanbases.

Swaggy gonna be the x-factor next week.

https://twitter.com/swaggydu1/status/1155645713453334530?s=21

Swaggy has been working hard to rehab and get his swag back. 

Also after all these years Duane will finally realize on playing on the same team with his cousin Jamil. ( Duane had to sit out freshman year)

I’ve seen 7 pm from MU and 9 pm from Joe Chap.
Is there an early game at 7 and MU at 9?
Ticket cost?
Changed schedule to be down in Chicago on Thursday.

After watching them today, they don’t need Duane Wilson. What does he bring that other players aren’t providing?

Thanks to both of you for the explanation.

Duane would be very valuable because when it gets to the end of the game, Swaggy can play both ways. Derrick(no O) , Acker/Rowsey (no D) and  have to be switched in and out. Gets tricky when the time outs run out.

Anyone know why he isn’t on the team? I saw a picture of them all after practice and he was there but was pretty much the only one not on the actual team.

Very bad treatment of Duane.

Likely because they already have Bucyks, Acker and Rowsey filling the same role.

Jerel was also at practices and not on the team. TBT limits roster size and you have to pay for more players. The three guys added outside Marquette were 6'6"+. I would guess they had 8 spots and prioritized adding some size while keeping Marquette guys, most of which have been on the team before (Jamil, Buycks, Derrick, Acker). That left room for one newcomer, and Rowsey is a better shooter.

I would guess the TBT guys are interested and comfortable with Duane but had to make a cutoff somewhere. We have one of the deepest guard pools in TBT. The good news is there are guys like Duane available in the future.

I think people have an over-romanticized version of the gifts Duane brings to the table.

Let me understand this...we beat a team yesterday sponsored by PRN with the sole purpose of targeting Markus, even with their team name? 

Dedication!

I also think we all know there might be some politics here too.  My understanding is that Ike Wilson is no fan of Wojo's.  While Joe Chapman runs basketball camps with the likes of Steve Novak and Travis Deiner.  And of course Dan Fitzgerald is an employee of the University.

Now I don't know how much any of this actually played in the decisions regarding roster, but I don't think it is wrong to say that tensions may exist.

Duane has also done some coaching at CBA (Chapman Basketball Academy), just like Steve and Travis.
