Too bad we cannot get this thing to the AAC in Dallas.

Memphis is probably the best location for the tourney. NOLA is the only other city I'd prefer but attendance would not be as good.

Depends on how you define "better attendance"

I would say there would be fewer Memphis fans and more fans of all other teams if it were held in NOLA. And that would be "better" in my book.

Memphis is excellent.
Quick flight or a doable drive from Dallas for weekend games.
Good job AAC

I actually think Moody would be a much better venue than the AAC. Tulane's gym at 4,000 even better.

It was fun in Memphis last time except for the Wednesday 12:00 loss to Houston.

FYI, SMU would have to bid on it first, which isn't going to happen very soon.

I'm happy with Memphis. Besides Dallas...I think OKC or Tulsa would have great attendance
