As part of #TBT2020 "Bubble Week", Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with the GM of GaelNation, John Kiggins.

We discuss the small, but passionate, fan base of the Gaels, the buzz at Iona due to the arrival of Rick Pitino, and the luxury of having one of the deepest perimeter rotations in the TBT community. 

Was the foul that put them out to Armored Athlete in 2018 a tough call? What impact will grad transfer Diamond Stone have on their front court play? Can the Nation represent the rebound of New Rochelle, the home of Iona and the epicenter of America's COVID crisis?

Deep, dangerous, and with scoring up and down the roster, can the GaelNation plant their flag in the 24 and play for $2M?

As part of #TBT2020 "Bubble Week", Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with the GM of the Fort Wayne Champs, Garrett Martz. 

We discuss how unique it is to be one of the few (only?) teams with G-League roots as part of the Ants Alumni, what it is like to be one of two teams to defeat a defending TBT champion, and how they were able to step in on short notice for a withdrawn team to make the Super 16 in 2018.  

With a deep, hardnosed, and veteran roster, can these champs scratch and claw their way to $2M and glory for Indiana?

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with the GM of Big X, Andrew Dakich.  

We discuss how a team made up of Big Ten grads are able to blend different styles of play, what it is like for Andrew to be a potential "triple threat" of GM / Head Coach / Player, and how much of a responsibility it would be for Andrew to guide recent Buckeye Kaleb Wesson in his first professional basketball journey.  

Driving hands free, talking Jack Daniels, and arguing if golf is an actual sport, this interview was one of the looser and more entertaining forays into what life is like for part of the TBT community.  

Can the Big X take that $2M from their buddies on Carmen's Crew?

Zoom the TBT hosts Charge and Haner share their most recent draft of the #TBT2020 field, with a impossibly tight 24 team cap. With Overseas Elite and Golden Eagles. Also with a big new entry of the Money Team (TMT), a remixed Fredette squad, how can anyone cut the 40-50 deserving teams to double dozen?

The lads analyze the potential teams that could be playing for $2M in the summer of 2020. 

Honestly, we're not even sure how the poor bastards that run this will make these calls...

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with Power of the Paw's GM Nick Isabella.

We discuss the how the physical identity of Clemson basketball powers this team, what it means to represent the university in a positive and professional manner, and what having a school primarily known for it's football wins means for its' hoops persona?

Professional and on point, Nick provides a compelling trip on why these Tigers alum aren't to be trifled with.

Rough, rugged, and ready. Can they place their paws on $2M?

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with Herd That''s GM Ot Elmore.

We discuss what how important it is to rep the state of West Virginia, how playing in a current one bid conference like C-USA prepares a team for the knockout melee of the tournament, and being a viral sensation in March.

The theory is a team wins by playing up tempo and scoring at will, can this hold up in the grind of TBT?

The country roads are welcoming a Herd of distinction, can they walk out with $2M?

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with SUPA Crew's GM Derrick Byars + SF LD Williams.

We discuss what it means to be a "veteran" team in TBT, how experience and cohesion can make up for speed, and what it's like having a team GC who can still pound the rock. The 901 is represented, and we discuss what it means to play for Andre Emmett.

Supa Crew: Deep. Talented. Old.

Age is just a number, and these guys have two million reasons to ignore it.

Recording date: 05/21/20

Zoom the TBT hosts Charge and Haner share their most recent draft of the #TBT2020 field with the reduced field of 24 teams announced 5/27/20 and analyze the potential teams that could be playing for $2M in the summer of 2020.  

Painful cuts are made. 

Haner might have cried a little

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with Playing for Jimmy V's GM Alex Neumann.

We discuss the importance of training camp, what a mess the West Virginia region is from 2 to 11, and what having a team with a core from the TriState area means. Alex also defends his team's honor in regards to certain bracketologists.

Rutgers was going to make the NCAAs for the first time in twenty nine years (!) before... well... you know...

Charge and Haner discuss the TBT with Primetime Players GM Chris Thomas.

We discuss the confidence that five TBT wins gives this veteran squad, how hard it is to go 122-8 in ECBL play, and how  a team founded in 1991 keeps it fresh against some of the best players in Europe every summer.

Experience, guts, and nothing to lose. Can this underdog team walk out with $2M?
