According to a report from CBS Sports college basketball reporter Jon Rothstein, Utah State men’s basketball will participate in an additional field of four teams in the 2025 Charleston Classic. Alongside the Aggies, it is reported that Boston College, Tulane and Davidson will be participating teams. The primary field of the Charleston Classic will feature teams from major conferences, reported to be West Virginia, Georgia, Clemson and Xavier. The Aggies would not compete against any of those four teams as part of this multi-team event (MTE). The four-team format seems to suggest it will be a two-game event for the Aggies, much like the NIT Season Tip-Off which USU participated in this past season. The Aggies played two games as part of a four-team tournament, beating St. Bonaventure in the first round and then North Texas in the championship game. Head coach Jerrod Calhoun has previously indicated a preference for MTEs where his team plays two games as opposed to ones where they would play three games in three days. Per Rothstein, which teams will match up against which in the opening round has not yet been determined and no timetable is set for an official announcement from the tournament
