Bridgeport Regional Host Site

[FASTEDDY]

Based on the very poor attendance at all the other regional site locations and the very good attendance in Bridgeport, I think that Bridgeport should also be a regional host site in 2018, 2019 .....

People come out to the games and UCONN will likely be excellent again and placed in the East. Bridgeport with UCONN seems like a guaranteed sell out. Why not keep it going?

The sites for next year have already been selected, the closest to Connecticut is Albany, I believe.

Let's really help the NCAA out.... have the Final Four in Hartford.

(Please don't tell me they can't because its a UConn home court; I'm joking... kinda)

As stated numerous times, the Final Four attendance is never an issue. It is the Regionals and 1sr/2nd rounds with attendance issues.

If Im running the tourney all the Regional sites would be where you draw the most fans. If you can sell out all the regional sites the NCAA should make money. CT SC Seattle and Tenn draw. Any other sites for Regionals would be consider too.

Site selection is currently decided by bids placed by "host" schools... Bridgeport is the home court of the Fairfield Stags... I assume it would be up to Fairfield University to bid on the hosting...

They haven't been selected for the year after and that's where Geno's words may gain weight. They need to treat women's basketball as they do men's and women's hockey.
