We had to have a neutral site, This is about as neutral as you can get.

Why do you have to? So nobody shows up? Looks like a damn upward game

I hope this thing is such a disaster they have no choice but to cancel the 2nd year of the contract. What a shameful setup for a d1 basketball conference.

Good call. We take it out in international waters and get a bunch of cocaine and hookers, set up a casino. We'll be rolling in the dough.

This conference never ceases to amaze me with the dumb*** things they come up with. I’ve been to many conf tournaments in my lifetime from the CUSA, Big 10, ACC, Big South, Southern, and several others. The fun of these is all the different games to sit through and enjoy. Multiple games at the exact same time in Big ass complex? In Texas.... obviously 03-zzz

As much as I pine for CUSA and defend it this type of nonsense makes it harder and harder...

But wait!.....

If you buy the $900 multi-pass, you get access to selected seating at AT&T Stadium, where you can enjoy watching games simultaneously on Jerry's big screen.

Plus, the first 20 people to take advantage of this once in a lifetime deal get a commemorative Judy/Jeep bobble-head doll.

Just play the tourney at home sites spread out over a week and a half. Imagine how good those games would look on TV. WKU hosting UAB, ODU hosting LA Tech/UNT, MU hosting UTSA, etc. Those semifinals games would break the home schools attendance records almost every year. MTSU hosting MU? ODU hosting WKU/UAB? Not to mention the $$$$$ from tickets would be exponentially higher than whatever crap we get from playing in Texas around schools that are bad at basketball.

This may work. It does look odd, but it's all about attendance. Having the tournaments together may end up being a good move. We'll see what happens, but they may get this right. If not, let's try Nashville in a couple years.

I say we buy out year 2 of the contract. $.37 and a bus token ought to do it.

Isn't the hangup that Nashville's arenas are more or less spoken for during Championship Week?

This season they were wide open as OVC had theirs in Evansville and SEC in St Louis.

I wouldn't know. There's also New Orleans. That's a great destination city. Wherever it's held, I'd keep the tournaments together within the same venue. Consolidate all the fans under one roof. I like that concept and I think it'll work. I wish I could be there this weekend

Holy mother of god. This is absolutely terrible. Not that it would really matter but can someone post the emails and phone numbers for every AD in our conference. We all need to flood them with our feedback on this immensely embarrassing setup. How...why...who...like, ugh. Jesus Christ this is ridiculous. The tv screens, the curtain, the tiny temp stands, the distance behind the rims, it's a mile from the sides, the raised court, this is absolutely insane. People need to be fired for this plain and simple.

That place looks great. Is there a Justin Bieber concert there this week or something?
