Without knowing how any of those teams project for this year or next, it looks like a pretty underwhelming field.
That seems like it has the potential for some great match-ups. Is the Puerto Rico Tourney still one of the marquee events. I remember it being one of the better ones in years past.
Keep in mind that we're going to be very young next season. We don't need a meat grinder right out of the gate.
Here are the fields for 2016 and 2015

Also assuming the dates for 2017 will be Thurs Nov 16, Fri Nov 17, & Sun Nov 19 based on the past 2 years dates

At some point it'd be fun to get into a Fall tourney with some names. However, I agree that we don't need to throw a mostly new roster through the toughest ringer. The Big12 will be tough enough.
my dream is to someday have ISU in Maui. Might have missed out on the chance though.
Illinois State has a chance to be very, very good in 2017-18.
I'll never understand how these tournaments choose fields. The fact that UNI will be making their second trip to Atlantis next year before Iowa State gets invited once. One would think with the success Iowa State has had for the last half decade that ESPN would be beating down the door to get them into one of their top tier events.
I'm going to the PR Tipoff this year, but it's in Orlando because of Zika, so I guess I won't be much help in planning for you guys...

no passport and they use US bucks
San Juan is nice but rent a car and see the island.
Northeast on the island is tropical 150+ inches of rain / year
southwest is desert under 10 inches. such a cool place
