Not having the Barons is going to make the RV argument harder to push down the road. You know it and I know it.

What is the RV argument?

If the SEC HQ weren't in Gumpville, the tournament wouldn't be in Hoover. Once again, they don't represent the 14 universities or 11 states equally.
Time to move the tournament...then the HQ!

Screw you brah. If the Hoover Met is good enough for Michael Jordan then it's good enough for your hillbilly arse.

quote:Some people think that they reason it wasn't moved 5 years ago was that the RV lobby got on the phones and pressured the SEC office to keep it at Hoover because they didn't want to lose us. Realistically though, the RV owners are some big givers at their respective schools (not me - but real big RV owners), so they pressure their school Presidents, ADs, etc, to pressure the SEC office on their behalf. I suspect there is some influence but not sure if it's enough this go around to succeed with the Barons moving into the new Regions.

Personally, I don't see the "dump" description even relevant to Hoover. I would bet 75% of the people calling it a dump on here haven't been or at least haven't been recently. These young kids on here need to be entertained with glitz and shite. I go to enjoy baseball.

Perhaps Lsu can get their first postseason win in a sport this week.

I don't think you know what "headquarters" means.
The SEC is never going to give a crap about Louisiana, get over it.

...and you always be their second favorite in state.

...and you'll always be the little PUSSYcats compared to the real Tigers.

If you take the HQ out of Gumpville, you lose the officiating, scheduling, compliance, and sanctions assistance you receive which would place your football at the same level as your basketball & baseball. You know...the bottom.

Other than RV parking, why should it remain in Hoover?
