Interesting to note that Jordan Gathers will be playing but not with the Brown and White. He’s registered with some family and friends to play on Team Hank Gathers in honor of his late great uncle

Courtney Stockard and Ladarien Griffin added in the last day or two. Up to 6 committed players. One more commitment to make us eligible.

If I understand correctly. We have the verbal commits to be eligible but TBT recommends having fan support goals that "unlock" commits. So they might be waiting for another 50-100 fans to sign up or some other benchmark.
The team is pretty sick, pretty much the best wings we have had in the last 10 years all on the floor at the same time. I really hope we are able to drum up enough support to make the cut to the top 24 teams

It doesn't make any sense. Brown & White has 267 registered fans now and they are still labeled as "ineligible."
Teams like Herd That, Marshall alumni (24 fans), Boeheims Army (72 fans), Gael nation (7 fans) and 'The A' (a whopping ONE fan) are somehow listed as eligible. Does fan support matter or not? Are Russian hackers involved in the decision making here?

Next commit gets us eligible but we still need great fan support (via registration) to be considered for the reduced field.

As of a few minutes ago, I saw 1 team with 2 Commits marked as eligible, and 1 team with 7 commits as ineligible.....does anyone really know the criteria, or should someone ask Dave Moore......

I don't know this for sure, but would assume that repeat teams are granted eligibility somewhat easier than new teams.

I believe I saw that Ogo is playing although he isn’t listed as officially committed yet

BonaBob is correct based on what the Brown and White twitter account said last night. Commits need to be verified also so the verified part of the statement might not be complete on the team with 7 commits marked ineligible or TBT might just be bad at updating their website.

As far as guards go. I saw Ogo and Posley were options before the coronavirus changes.
Posley played last year for a team and played pretty well at PG. It pains me to say it but he was looked pretty out of shape so hopefully if he is the PG he gets in the gym some between now and the tourney. In shape or not he was still a killer just couldn't attack the basket as frequently as he did at Bonas.

Brown & White @brownwhitetbt Yesterday Brown & White officially added a stone cold killer. St. Bonaventure '16 and @thetournament alum @mposley joined the roster. How's the squad look so far?! #GoBonnies @bonniesmbb
I liked this response to the tweet above:
What do we need to do to get Yossou Ndoye on this team to protect the rim? I'm not expecting Adams or Nicholson but Ndoye, Kloof and Taqqee would be a nice trio to add.
