OMAHA — In the days between the end of baseball season and the start of football season, the sports world is fairly bleak. But for any Razorback fans looking to scratch the itch, Team Arkansas is set to compete in The Basketball Tournament.
The Basketball Tournament is a 64-team, single-elimination tournament with a winning prize of $1 million. It is scheduled to run from July 16 to Aug. 2, with the championship game being played in Dayton, Ohio.
Much like the Diamond Hogs, Team Arkansas is competing in Omaha, Nebraska. The team consists of mostly Razorback basketball alumni in a winner-take-all $1 million-prize tournament.
