I love the Savis Arena in St. Louis, but it is extremely small...it would be great due to location in St. Louis, but I do not see it there.
Nashville is a favorite with the SEC....they love the location.

Oh, I know...I know also the Rams are using it as a dangling carrot for new stadium or they move to LA.

I like Kiel also, just can't bring myself to call it Savvis. I loved the old Kiel and the Arena (Checkerdome) also. I hink going to college 3 hours from Busch and having roommates in college from STL made me like the place even more.

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.
frick playing it anywhere in FL. That's not close at all to anyone in the West. It should rotate b/w ATL/NOLA and possibly Memphis

Why not Memphis over Nasville? I don't really recall having great time in either place. I had decent time.
The chance of getting shot is less in Nashville.

I've lived in Memphis my whole life. Trust me, you wont get shot. That said they need to get the tourny back to memphis. FedEx Forum is nicer than any of those other city's arenas mentioned, and it is right off of Beale Street. Tunica is only 40 minutes away too. It would be a good time.

It's not nicer than the Yum Center.

Isn't memphis dangerous too?
It would be the safest city in Iraq.

I don't think it should ever be in Rupp. I do also think that the cities I listed originally are all viable options.

The Yum Center is automatically disqualified because it is called the YUM Center.

Downtown is great in regards to safety. Just don't go west , south, or north.

Solid reasoning.

Do you get a free Caramel Empanada when UK forces 15 or more turnovers?

Posted on 12/23/11 at 5:01 pm to memphis Vol
