The Basketball Classic - Is this thing real?

Unmitigated disaster in the making. This thing allegedly is going to replace the CIT, which was cancelled the last two years because of Covid-19. There are supposed to be 32 teams playing, but I don't see how it is going to happen as of 8 PM EST on 3/14/22. The College Insider website and Twitter account have not announced a bracket. The only way you can tell which teams have accepted is by going to the Wikipedia page for this thing, where someone is listing the participating teams by scouring news articles on Google. At the time of this post, only 21 teams are listed.

If this thing does happen, I think it will be scaled back to 24 teams. And put all your money on Kent State.

Tap tap. Is this thing on? It is true I never posted in this sub before yesterday, but did this thread even show for everyone? Well, it is true. This joke of a tourney is actually going to play with 21 teams, 5 or 6 of them with losing records.
