In response to A Western Bison
Many of the preseason tournaments already have fields in place, including ones the Bison have played in before such as the Legends Classic and the 2K Classic. Here is a complete list.
But there are some spots available in the following events, most of which have two games at major college sites, followed by two neutral site games:
- Gulf Coast Showcase (Florida 11/20-22, 3 games).
- Vancouver Showcase (November TBD, 3 games).
- Lone Star Showcase (November TBD, 3 games)
- MGM Grand Main Event (November, 4 games, two on campus, two at Las Vegas).
- CBE Hall of Fame Classic (November, 4 games, 2 on campus, 2 at KC).
- Barclays Center Classic (November, 4 games, 2 on campus, 2 at Brooklyn).
- Savannah Invitational (November, 4 games, 2 on campus, 2 at Savannah).
- Global Sports Classic (November, 4 games, 2 on campus, 2 at Las Vegas).
- Continental Tire Las Vegas Classic (December, 4 games).
There are other tournaments that do take midmajors but are already full. Here is a list, showing the site of the later games plus midmajors already committed:
- Gildan Classic (Charleston) - Hofstra, ODU).
- 2K Classic (NYC) - Belmont, Detroit, Houston Baptist, Seattle.
- Virgin Islands Paradise Jam - Drexel, Liberty, Mercer, Quinnipiac.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Bison in Cancun, Cayman Islands, Virgin Islands, or Mohegan Sun some year.
