Message: [QUOTE="JeepCSC, post: 2302442, member: 3214"] Boeheim's an idiot. You go where the fans are. You can rotate, but the fact is a huge chunk of ACC fans are in Charlotte and in Greensboro. Kansas City isn't the biggest city in the B12 footprint, but it's where the B12 tournament is because it's where the basketball fans are. Put it this way, if you are selecting a city because of things to do outside the arena, then you are putting the cart before the horse. The draw should be the basketball, and location really should picked for ease to getting fans to see the basketball. New York made sense for the Big East because it was the center of conference. Bonus points in that it was New York City, but it's location relative to fans was really why it worked. New York makes sense in the rotation for the ACC, as does Atlanta and DC. But North Carolina should get the bulk of the tournaments. And it's because of fans, not amenities. [/QUOTE]
