Hoops is about to start so going to ask.

Would you support a three day 8 team classic that rotated teams out of top 4 conferences (not saying these are top 4)

Hold it in different portion of country each year.


Such as example
UK
Arkansas
tOSU
Minnesota
Syracuse
FSU
UCLA
Colorado

We don't have 7 losses yet so this thread is invalid.

Round ball is pointless until real sports are over.

Agree. Very excited about the Battle 4 Atlantis this year. I love great preseason tournaments, and anything that matches up the great conferences is certainly a step in the right direction.

In a few years, UF will be joining Michigan State, UNC and Texas for a 3 city, 8 day barnstorming tour on a single plane. It is going to be a lot of fun.

Do it in the middle of the country. West coast folks don't seem to travel well and several Big 12 states seem football centric.

What size seating are you thinking about? Would you want cities venues or schools venues?

Yeah man I agree. It's extremely hard to watch more than one sport.

I would say this would be if started first one be in Indianapolis at Conseco or maybe in Denver at Pepsi Center

Reason in Indy for the uk tOSU fans.

If in Denver easy trip and people would go.

Orlando for the "scenery" and not a bad destination for some.

I'm sure there are better ideas or arenas. But not on campus unless at Rupp, Syracuse, or Value City

Schtate's grid-iron dominance carries over to the hardwood. Dogs win the SEC.
