Does adding OU and Texas to the SEC persuade the moving of the SEC baseball Tournament?

I saw Kendall Rogers tweet something about Globe Life making a possible run at hosting future SEC baseball tournaments in Arlington. Do you guys think that its a chance since we would have more western schools with pull? I think Hoover is garbage and would welcome a move to the DFW area

It should rotate

I think the SEC would end up contracting with a company for a term similar to their CBS deal with football.

It will remain in gump-land

The SEC will do whatever brings in the most money.

So DFW would be much more lucrative than gump land. Especially since we would have OU and Texas. Plus A&M/OM/MSU/ Arky and LSU travel better than any other school in conference.

I think if they start to rotate it, they need to reward the long time conference members first and not the new dickbags. Put it in Nashville, Biloxi, or Memphis.

It will go to the highest bidder except they will give Hoover last look.

They pass out the rewards in Destin. The tournament lije everything else will go where they can make plenty of $$$$$$$$

Why is Hoover garbage?

The annual bitch about hoover thread i see. Id like to rotate. But only if we can include the superdome somehow
Posted on 5/22/22 at 1:34 pm to ProjectP2294
Biloxi would be sweet

Yep, the Shuckers have a very nice facility.

I dont care how they do it so long as it allows some of us to be able to actually attend some games every other year or so. Having a monopoly on the tournament is bullshite

Alabama runs the SEC. Tournament is not leaving Hoover.

CPM always said that the League's coaches love playing in Hoover as it's size prepares a team for Ohama. So guess it depends on how much stroke the coaches have in choosing where to play the tournament.

We've been going to Hoover for over 20 years. Never really had a bad experience. What's the big gripe about it? ??
I mean, I hate the the SEC office is in Birmingham, but the Met itself has always been a good time. Plenty of parking, traffic really isn't bad, big enough stadium but not hard to fill. And like someone else said, I've always heard that the coaches liked the playing field as well.
Honest question.

1. The SEC Baseball Ty is in Hoover mainly for the SEC Office staff's convenience. We do not want the poor babies to have to travel in late May to the SEC Baseball Ty somewhere else then have to travel to Destin in June for the summer meetings. I was told this by TWO SEC Office staff members a few years ago.
2. I am tired of Hoover. No hotels/motels within walking distance to the stadium is one complaint I have. Rotate the damned event please.
3. Memphis had the best bid last time it was up for bids. I have been to that park and it is superior to Hoover in every way, IMO. Let's go to Memphis for 2-3 years then maybe somewhere else.
4. I am fine with Arlington or Frisco, TX as part of that rotation. Just do not keep having it at Hoover year after year.
