Some interesting data about conference Tournament sites as compared to their central location:



Although West Virginia shouldn't count for central purposes for the Big 12 just saying.

This https://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-ridiculousness-of-conference-tournament-locations-in-6-maps/ follows my suggestion of putting the SEC Tournament in Memphis.

Interesting insomuch as we're basically looking at each conference's quasi-geo footprint there ... except some conferences have a heavier, deeper, footprint than others.

Something doesn't look right about some of the centers.
How can 9 schools be west of the Big XII center and just one, WVU, be east?

Home of Mississippi's first igloo shaped gas station. It is world famous.

Probably just a different metric. I don't think anyone wants to go to Hatley or Nauvoo.

Mississippi does benefit from having zero Missouri fans within its borders but I'm not sure if thats enough.
