Wish List: Texas schools preseason tournament

[texasmustang10]

How cool would it be to have a pre-season tournament of strictly Texas teams? Call it something like the Texas Shootout. Just taking the top 8 teams in the state, you're looking at a very watchable event:

Texas
SMU
Baylor
Houston
SFA
Tech
A&M
UTEP

[SMU1523]

I don't see Texas ever agreeing to this type of arrangement.

we broadcast the whole thing on LHN...

[East Coast Mustang]

If the Big 12 Texas schools & A&M won't schedule us at Moody then f 'em. I say we play OU or OSU again at AAC or Moody just to spite them...give Kruger and Ford a free recruiting trip to DFW

[Grant Carter]

Are teams from the same conference allowed to be in the same tournament?

[PonyKai]

we broadcast the whole thing on LHN...

Yeah but we'd like to actually see the games.

Texans barely realize there is basketball being played before January. An Inconvenient Truth

[OhioBrownFan]

That'd be awesome. I've been wanting Ohio to do it for years, Indiana does it (called the Crossroads Classic in Indianapolis) with Butler, IU, Purdue and Notre Dame every year. It's not a tournament but just a way to get a great OOC opponent on the schedule in-state.
