I don't think you get the local support that is needed in a rotation like that. Like it not, Hoover, Vestavia, Pelham, Mountain Brook locals account for a good portion of the day time attendance. It takes time to build that up. A one year rotation would be a disaster for tournament attendance.

You don't think Memphis locals with MSU, Bama, Arkansas, Ole Miss roots would't come? You have,'t seen the mid week attendance for Ole Miss and Arkansas games against Tigger High have you. Memphis would set attendance records, period. That isn't anything but a bunch SEC fans living in disputed territory and Downtown Memphis isn't Whitehaven, it's getting pretty gentrified these days.
