Message: [QUOTE="KnightBridgeAZ, post: 4936316, member: 591"] Yes - and actually the hotels were at the outer edge of acceptable on NCAA rules, apparently, hotels need to be within 30 minutes of the arena, as you know teams playing in Storrs are (at times) staying in Hartford. All specified in the "bid" that every potential host (including Gonzaga, I suspect and definitely including Arizona since this is all before they play games) had to put together months before. Unlike other situations, it isn't a financial bid, it is a bid that they can meet all the requirements the NCAA has to host - capacity, hotels, practice facilities, media facilities, etc. [/QUOTE]
