Here is an interesting excerpt from the article concerning Notre Dame Players and Open Tryout players:
"In addition, Notre Dame graduates Kyle McAlarney and Ryan Ayers were assigned to the Mad Ants by the NBA D-League as allocated players.
Brandon Cotton, a point guard from the Detroit Mercy, and Jared Carter, a 7-footer from the Kentucky, earned training camp roster spots from local open tryouts.
Notre Dame coach Mike Brey said he talked with Rob Kurz recently, and the former Notre Dame forward said he too could end up playing for the Mad Ants this season."
