A Texas location likely wouldn't even get a second thought.
I honestly don't think it will be leaving Hoover anytime soon, but if it did, Memphis would be my first choice. The park is downtown with tons of hotels and restaurants and Beale Street nearby. That's one thing I miss about the Big 12. Bricktown is a GREAT location for a baseball tournament.

Why not just can the SEC tournament and add one more SEC 3 game series to all teams schedules?
Maybe the tournament makes money? The extra 3 games vs an SEC opponent gives all the teams 3 more games...whereas the tournament does not for the two teams that don't make it, and the teams that go 0-2 and bbq.

I don't think it would be eligible. Ross Dellenger with The Advocate mentioned yesterday that there was a 10,000 capacity that had to be met. That's why the new park in Biloxi couldn't apply.

There has been talk of the Astros looking for a new AAA franchise to move to Conroe and build a new park. Since I live on Lake Conroe, I would love that and they could bid the next time the SEC looks around.

For those of us that came in late and didn't pay attention, whose home field is that?
