Tough to find a desirable neutral site that isn't claimed yet because most of what's between us and the Atlantic coast is garbage.

Nashville would be fun, but I believe the SEC already goes there. Same with the SBC in Pensacola, I think. CUSA is now in Huntsville. Maybe we could go Atlanta?

Memphis and Wichita would bring the best crowds of the existing markets.

Biloxi and New Orleans?

Anyway.....my guess is....it will go to Memphis. And quite frankly...that might be the best spot for it.

Perhaps Hot Springs as a neutral site.

Those 5 SBC tourneys there.....were so much fun.

Even if they leave the conference, Menphis would be a good choice. 

So would New Orleans. I am just guessing that in an effort to keep the Tigers in the AAC that the promise of moving the tournament to Memphis was made. This is just a guess and by golly but the attendance at Dickies in Ft. Worth was pitiful and the weather suspect. In an effort to encourage attendance from our more northern teams I would have the tournament somewhere in Florida but my money is on Memphis.

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I am torn on what to do with EM, but I know he needs to go. Many say we need a HC with head coaching experience at the FBS level. I know there are HCs at other FBS programs doing more with less, but would they come to a place where historically it's difficult to win consistently and risk it all if their eye is ultimately on a power conference job? Then if you take a P4 conference former HC, they have most likely been fired and they may not get the mojo back like Tom Herman at FAU or Charlie Strong. So, if that is the case where do we go? Many are saying no FCS HC or no more coordinators who have not been a HC at this level. Again where do we go if not those type of guys? My thought is that you may have to hire that guy that this board has been reluctant to go after. That's the guys who have had issues somewhere else and that's why they are no longer where they are. Lane Kiffin had issues and FAU gave him the chance to resurrect his career. Alabama gave Sarkisian (spelling) a chance to resurrect his career and he is doing good things at Texas. We have tried a lot of things, but we have not tried that route of HCs with some skeletons in their past. I feel that if that coach wins, people will forget about their past. I am sure people at Texas have forgotten about what went down with Sark at USC. Just my opinion because we have been striking out for a long time on HCs.

      In case you’re a Yeti collector

      YETI has a collegiate collection. I didn't get a chance to snag one of the above, so I'm hoping that UNT will become available on their website. Eventually?

      You mean the playbook that famously can be drawn out on a napkin?

      Eric Morris needs to go

      I'm not sure what the path is for Cobbs long term. A lot of us would absolutely love to have him in a HC role in Denton, but we want to see him gain HC experience first. Do we take a chance and give him that crown? Do we watch him leave, and possibly not return...ever?
