Per John Goodman's Twitter...the 2021 Charleston Classic will include St. Bonaventure, Marquette,WVa, Clemson, Temple, Boise St, and 2 teams tbd. Let's see the scheduling malcontents find fault in this one.

This looks to be the best tournament field in many years that the Bonnies have been in.

Based on history, would we expect the other 2 teams to be major/high mid major or from lower level conferences?

Expect a Colonial team. The CAA appears to be the host. Hometown CofC is in the 2020 field. Not sure where the last team would come from

Big Ten, SEC, and Pac 12 could still place a team in the field.

Dayton was in this tournament a few years ago. Maybe 2018.

An A10 team gets into this pretty much every year. Mason was in it last year. This will be a great field for our Senior team to get some at large building done. Matt P said we were going to get into 2 good tournaments coming up so he was right on.

Matt P said we were going to get into 2 good tournaments coming up so he was right on. The key to getting into good events is that the upper tier A10 teams (as far as these events are concerned—not necessary how they do in the conference) need to get into the top events. Dayton, VCU, and Davidson have been getting into Maui and Atlantis recently which opens up slots in other good events for A10 teams. When the top A10 teams are not getting into the top events it forces them to move into the next tier of events which bumps every other A10 team down a level because only one team per conference can be in an event. The team’s run the next two years should position the team well to move up in the pecking order.
