GEICO Coconut Hoops, formerly known as the Gulf Coast Showcase, is a college basketball tournament and showcase event that started in 2013, and was originally held at Hertz Arena in Estero, Florida through 2024, before moving to Alico Arena in Fort Myers, Florida in 2025. The men's eight-team event is designed to showcase the top mid-major programs from across the country. The women's tournament is held a few days after the men's tournament and showcases a mix of both high and mid-major programs. Until 2016, all games were streamed on ASunTV. FloCollege began streaming the tournament in 2017.
