So, the tournament is moving from an ACC city to a Big East city. Great job by the SEC office.

Agreed, put it in Nashville or even Memphis. The Georgia Dome is a piece of crap anyways.

Oh come on hat, I know why you would say. I was just wondering based on the basketball history of the city. :)

New Orleans has hosted a whole bunch of Final Fours. It certainly has a better college hoops history than Tampa or Atlanta. Michael Jordan. Keith Smart. Chris Webber's timeout. Carmelo Anthony.

Do we play Memphis this year and can/will we win?

Go back and look at Tennessee's record (men's basketball and football) in the Georgia Dome. Then tell me that you have any more concerns about them changing venues...

I know that. But I am no fan of Tampa. ATL is not my favorite city but I like it better than Tampa.

Everyone's scared of tornadoes and you suggest Nashville? Heh heh.

Nah, it would probably be fine in Nashville in March. Typically April and May are our spring tornado months. We weren't named 2008's #1 city in the United States to be hit by a tornado in the month of Aprilfor no reason.

If everyone is scared of tornadoes, why the hell not try Knoxville? Haven't had a tornado touchdown in the city limits since 1974.
