The network for Bucknell's first game in Hawaii, against Rhode Island, was originally TBD.
It will be on ESPN3, 10pm ET on Saturday Dec 22. After the first day, all the remaining games (Dec 23 and 25) are on ESPN2 or ESPNU.

Looks like I get to wrap presents and watch some hoops on 12/22. This might be the first time ever that I am excited about wrapping presents!

Curious if anyone knows this tournament's business model. Watched the UNLV game and appeared there were no more than 300 or so in stands. Nice trip for Bison players but did they have to sell xmas cookies to fund their flights?

I think a good amount is financed by ESPN, because they need games to show over the Christmas weekend. Also I think the Hawaii tourism Bureau kicks in some money as well since it’s good publicity for Hawaii is a place to go. I am pretty sure Bucknell did not have to pay anything.

Hawaiian Airlines is also a major sponsor and probably covers all the airfare.
