There is also the financial side to this. If the venues were to be non-campus facilities, there would be a facilities cost to the tournament - raising ticket prices and/or reducing the total amount of money raised by the tournament, which could perhaps impact the expense sharing to the participating teams.
For example, I would expect that the facilities rental for Gampel Pavillion to be considerably less than the XL Center.
