Came to post this as well. I found the tickets to be reasonably priced. I’ll be sitting in a Loge box for $35!
I also noticed that the UT Alumni team will be in our region. Should be fun event.

Where’s Fluff?!
Edit——, nevermind, doing math in my head and he’s probably at least late 30’s.
Fluff would probably want to take every shot.

Who is going to be coaching them? I vote Elvin.
There is no coaching info on the TBT website yet, but I noticed that Eric Weary Jr and Tashawn Thomas have been added to the roster.

Be careful. My career ended at 42 with a torn acl at the cypresswood ymca during the noon game. I’m still heartbroken.
I got tickets. Cant wait to see some mature coogs win it.
Fluff and Tafari Toney were a package deal, but Tafari wasn’t invited, so… no Fluff.

Was hoping Thomas would not be on the team. I will still enjoy watching the Cougars play and hope he can at least provide some interior scoring for the team.

TBT site has coaching info now – head coach is Lawrence Paye, assistant coach is Leron Barnes.

It makes me emotional thinking about the fact that most of these guys were foundational to the early Sampson years and laid the foundation for the FC, and they’re finally going to play games there for the first time.
