For the first time in South Carolina basketball history we have a team presented with the opportunity to play in the Geico National Championship in New York City.  Due to current regulations on when teams are allowed the play, the boys are being denied this opportunity to showcase their hard work on the national level.  Playing in this tournament would offer many student athletes on the team an opportunity to be seen for recruitment by multiple college coaches.  Not only does this one tournament present the opportunity to further playing opportunities for the athletes, allow student athletes to be seen on the nation level, and offer a once in a lifetime travel opportunity to New York; it allows spectators on the national level to see first hand Coach Ryan's awesome light blue and Navy blue plaid sports coat.  The great state of South Carolina deserves the opportunity to showcase our immense athletic talents to the nation.
