The season isn’t over yet, Hoya fans. As March Madness sweeps the nation, your Georgetown Hoyas have accepted an invitation to the inaugural College Basketball Crown, a brand-new postseason tournament presented by FOX Sports and AEG. While the NCAA Tournament bracket may not feature our beloved Blue & Gray this year, the Crown offers a compelling opportunity for on-court competition and, perhaps even more intriguingly, a $500,000 Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) prize pool.

NEWS: The College Basketball Crown will award NIL prize money. In a partnership with Vivid Seats announced today, the event will award the championship team $300,000 while the runner-up receives $100,000 and semifinalists get $50,000.
