Not sure if attendance would factor in, but probably would
Might be hotel availability, COVID testing availability and practices, and other protocols that we don’t even know about. I’m sure the softball tournament loses $$ so whatever they can recoup at the gate might override decisions grrrr.
I hate to say it but known commodities (aka previous hosts) to the NCAA might be appealing to them vs possible first time hosts. No clue how they might run things.
I know we hosted the ACC Tournament a couple years ago, but I really do think our ability to control admittance/charge for attendance is a hindrance. I’ll admit it’s been several years since I’ve been to a game at TSP (whenever UT traveled up to the Burg, came as a fan dressed in black, lol) so things might have improved but that’s a tough sell I think to the NCAA.
