To host the SEC BB tournament, south of the most southern schools???!!!! Tampa??? Really? You'd think they'd host in in a more central location, or at least somewhere closer to where the actual fans live.

Yeah but I think we all agree it needs to stay in America.

Meh, just to play devils advocate here. Tampa has a lot of transplants, and is in better spring spot than pretty much any big city in the South.

ETA: it’s also in one of the best arenas in the country.

ATL is tough to beat as a venue.

Nashville, Atlanta, Dallas would be a good rotation with the addition of Texas and OK.

I just don't get it. Hell, why not Los Angeles or Honolulu? TAMPA???!!!! I'd have loved to attend a game or two, if it were within reasonable driving distance. somebody screwed up and I'm surprised there isn't more outcry over this.

Atlanta is the permanent home for the SECCG, I'd be ok with the BB tournament being in Nashville every year. Imagine the SECCG being in someplace like Charlotte or Indianapolis. This is the equivalent of that.

I'm tired of seeing this stupid argument. Central Florida is not no man's land, it's partial to UF but everyone has fans there and there's several airports if you need to fly in. It's also one of the best arenas anywhere and spring in central Florida is the best time of the year.

I'm tired of idiots that make stupid arse decisions. I couldn't give a shite about how nice the weather is in Central FLA. BASKETBALL IN AN INDOOR SPORT, PLAYED IN LATE FALS AND WINTER!

TAMPA?? You've got to be kidding me! Does anybody in Tampa even follow college sports?

Why do you guys keep mentioning central Florida? You realize it’s in Tampa, not Orlando.. right?

Also, you’re an idiot. Sorry, but if you’re gonna visit somewhere, weather absolutely matters.

That was me, sorry about that. I just like thong bikini girls. I'll pick better next time, possibly.
