Jacksonville has a very nice arena now and has hosted NCAA early rounds twice now I think.
The airport is very easy as well. The weather at that time of year is very mild.
Frick Orlando.

If you like theme parks then yes. I spent one miserable year living in Orlando and for multiple reasons I despise the place.
Traffic is bad. Roads are fricked up. People are strange because they are from every freaking where. It's dead hot there in the summer with no breeze. It's in the middle of the state and not on the water. I can go on and on. The theme parks are awesome if you like theme parks. Don't get me wrong. There are some very pretty areas. It just doesn't do it for me. That's just my opinion though.
I've also lived in Tampa and currently live in Jax. Give me Tampa or Jax any day.

I like the 5 year rotation between those cities, but I wish they'd stop putting the tournament in the Ga. Dome and the Superdome (just checked and they are using the NO Arena this year, which is good). The Ga. Dome looked barren last time the tourney was there, even though the crowds for some of the games were decent.
