RUSTON – For the first time, alumni of the Louisiana Tech Men's Basketball program are forming a team called Dunkin' Dogs, which will take part in The Basketball Tournament (TBT), the 64 team, $1 million winner-take-all event.
Former Bulldog Derric Jean (2015-20) is the first commitment. More roster announcements for the Dunkin' Dogs will be made via their social media pages @DunkinDogsTBT.
Lexington, Louisville, Syracuse, Kansas City, Wichita, West Virginia (Charleston), Virginia, and Indianapolis will serve as TBT Regional sites. Tickets will go on sale May 6. Fans can sign up for ticket and team notifications at

Founded in 2014, The Tournament specializes in hosting high-stakes, open-application sporting events distributed across the world. Its first property, The Basketball Tournament (TBT), has crowned eleven champions, awarded more than $17 million in prizes, and ushered in innovations such as the Elam Ending®.
