Does anybody have any insight as to if or where Bradley will play in a pre season tourney next year?

The preseason tournaments have been quite underwhelming for BU. I'd almost rather see an MTE with some higher end mid-major schools

Bradley's MTE this past season got them games with Liberty and Auburn. Those were great games for the Braves to get.

Agree. BU'S performance was underwhelming and the venues have been sketchy. Opponents have been legit net-wise. I worded my post poorly.

I would too plus it would give Bradley a chance to try and schedule some of them both home and away.

You still have 8 non-con games to schedule after your 3 games in the MTE. You figure 1 or 2 are going to be D2 or D3 opponents. 2 more are going to be low major D1s that you buy. You're getting bought at least once. That leaves 3-4 games on your schedule for H/Hs with other good mid-majors.
