2008. 2008 Atlanta tornado outbreak - WikipediaWhat year was it when we had all the weather issues in Georgia during the SEC basketball tournament?
One thing is for certain, Danny White needs to be working the permitting process like an Italian mobster in the 1960s. We have to get Vitello his baseball cathedral built that he has earned. Knoxville should never lose out on a bid to an armpit like Hattiesburg because the corrupt NCAA thinks our “facilities” aren’t good enough. Our guys were just slumming it under metal bleachers during the first lightning delay like it was 12U travel ball.
So USM clearly had the better resume and deserved to host, wasn't even close. Okay, I'm not sure I agree, but if you say so.Exactly. I think we should have hosted but the people saying we should have hosted based off of weather forecasts sound ridiculous.
We would riot in the streets if they came out and said "well UT has a better resume but we're going to let x team host because there's a 50% chance of rain in Knoxville" I doubt they take the 10 day forecast into consideration at all when making these decisions, and I really don't think they should unless it's a hurricane or something.
This is another NCAA complaint if true...I am sure they are staying in a 5 star hotel...oh wait it's HattiesburgAgain I do not believe there are no visitors locker room..Even it they are sitting on milk crates.
If this facility does not have locker room or they are not available for this tournament someone needs their head handed to them.
Can someone confirm this?
Didn't they host Mississippi last season?
