Go back to divisions. Alternate Tournament Hosts between East and West Division winners every year.

Get the games back on campus, where the fans actually care

Cancel it. Spend the money on a real sport.

something something about RV parking. This comes up every year, but the baseball tournament should rotate between something like Autozone in Memphis, Coolray Field in Gwinnett GA, Zephyr Stadium (Shrine on Airline ) in Metarie LA, Regions Field in Bham, Dell Diamond in Round Rock TX, and First Tennessee Park in Nashville....or some combination of some of these.

I would love to see it there. They just have to figure out parking.

The reason this will not move is the ease of parking at The Met and the campground as well.

I always thought Autozone Park in Memphis would be the perfect location.

Regions field is beautiful, but I wish the stadium was oriented where the business district's tall buildings were the backdrop behind the batters eye.

Regions is a tiny park. Why lose money? The SEC tourney pulls a large crowd.

ETA

George covered it. Also, the met staff reconfigures the park to match TD Amairtrade. It is the initial indicator of which teams will preform well in the CWS.

I would be more likely to travel to the tournament in Birmingham than Hoover.

I would still like to see a rotation with cities like Birmingham, New Orleans, Nashville, Jacksonville etc.

I quit going so I don't care. They can play in Anchorage for all I care.

AutoZone Park in Memphis is the dream location for me. Beautiful triple A ballpark
