Men's Basketball Announces Bucky's Greek Life Cup

Men’s basketball and head coach Bucky McMillan are excited to announce Bucky’s Greek Life Cup for the 2026-27 season!

• Organizations with 20 or fewer members: $500 Prize
• Organizations with 21–98 members: $1,000 Prize

TWO REQUIRED CHECK-INS

• To receive attendance credit for a game, each organization member must complete two check-ins:

> PREGAME: 15 minutes before tipoff.
> SECOND HALF: During the under-four-minute media timeout.

CHECK-IN PROCESS

• A QR code will be displayed at each designated check-in period, directing organization members to a check-in form. Members must submit their name and official Texas A&M email address, which must match the information listed on their organization's official roster.

ATTENDANCE VERIFICATION

• Following each game, check-in data will be cross-referenced with ticket scan data to verify attendance. Members must complete both check-ins and have a corresponding ticket scan to receive attendance credit.

DETERMINING THE WINNERS

• The winning organization in each grouping will be determined by the highest percentage of its total organization membership in attendance throughout the season.

TIEBREAKER 

• In the event of a tie, the organization with the most consistent attendance throughout the season will be declared the winner. This will be determined by the total number of games in which at least one member of the organization has verified attendance. Organizations can gain an advantage by maintaining representation at games throughout the season, including games played during winter break.

 

Organizations will receive standings updates at multiple points throughout the year so they can track their progress and see where they stand in the competition throughout the season.
