CBI field?

I think they might be having trouble finding teams.

Just saw on the Birmingham News site that Alabama turned the CBI down.

 

I think the team Joe is waiting on is my alma mater, which ought to be happy to get a postseason bid, even to a bogus tournament with a 60K entry fee.

 

I can't find that story on the Birmingham News Web site.

 

It's not the Birmingham News, but:

Wake Forest says it doesn't want in


Same with Missouri

But Virginia says yes

 

"The CBI, not to be confused with the television show CSI, will play its games on campus sites." -- Ugh.

 

Yes Virginia there is a CBI. No, honey, no one gives a shit about it. yes, honey, Al Groh could find a way to blow it anyway.

 

Still nothing on their site. Does this seem more and more like a scam of some sort?
"Congratulations! You've been randomly selected to compete in our third-string tournament! Just send us a check for $60,000 and we'll send you $10 million from the late prince of Zamunda, Akeem Joffer!"

 

It's real, but I don't think it will be around real long.

 

It's beginning to look like it won't get off the ground if nobody wants to play.

 

will it be around long enough to play a game?

 

Heaven is in need of a subpar, over-saturated college basketball tournament.
