Eh, i think it's kind of a fun what if. Also is next year not the last year on the current contract? And would be the first renegotiations since the upgrades? That said I think STL is a great spot.

Watched two conference tourney games last night:

SoCon championship...at 3200 capacity Kimmel Arena (UNC-Ashville home court (a member school))...Wofford vs UNC-G...Rowdy atmosphere, packed arena and student section for Wofford was like a home game...all on a Monday night

Horizon Semis...at 20,000 capacity Little Caesars Arena in Detroit...hollow, empty and barren...two pretty good games (including one buzzer beater featured on ESPN)

I for one would welcome the opportunity to host the MVC tourney.

The MVC should absolutely never have its tournament hosted at a school's facility, member or non-member.

As bad as some want to make St Louis out to be, it really is a neutral floor. It is almost reason enough to not want SLU in the conference......almost.
