The KnoxVegas Heat Basketball Tournament will blaze the 2009 summer recruiting circuit by featuring the most elite travel teams in the country. *This event will be by invitation only and will showcase over 250 of the nation’s most coveted hoop talents. The KnoxVegas Heat Invitational will provide a platform for both basketball entertainment and selective recruiting. Many recruiting analysts are already referring to this tournament as the “Great Southeastern Show.” The main “stages” are the Southeastern Conference’s renowned Thompson Boling Arena and new state-of-the-art Pratt Pavilion located on the heart of the University of Tennessee’s campus. In the past, many tournaments have fallen short of combining state of the art facilities, *college coaches, recruiting analysts, reasonable price points, and competitive teams. The purpose of the Knoxville Heat Men's Classic is to give student-athletes an opportunity to play against some of the country's most talented teams in top notch facilities. Our intent is to usher in a new era of exposure tournaments.
* College Coaches will only be permitted to attend the event pending a final decision by the NCAA as to whether any event held during the academic year will be certified for college coaches to attend. This decision is expected to be made during the January meeting of the NCAA*
