This is kind of far off but will they ever move the SEC tournament out of Hoover fricking Alabama?
I talked to someone with the Nashville Sounds fairly recently, and he mentioned they were trying to make a move to get the SEC tournament at the new stadium, but that was probably a giant cocktease.

There's been a cry across multiple fanbases to move it to Nashville or Memphis or even Gwinnett (or just rotate it to all the decent Minor league parks around the South) but as far as I know it's not leaving Hoover any time soon; the current set up just makes life really easy for the SEC when it comes to a sport that a lot of LSU fans, a lot of Vandy and Ole Miss and USCe fans, some Florida fans, a few UGA fans care about and nobody else (and ESPN/CBS/ABC aren't clamoring to rewrite TV contracts over the sport, either). It'd be a lot more fun and worth going to if the tourney were held in a better city, at a better ballpark but the cost of hosting it in a nice minor league stadium in a major city geographically far from the SEC offices make it more trouble than it'd be worth.
