Strong updates here. Thanks everyone.
Carolina could be the 12 seed and somehow win their pool. They always show up in this tourney. I really don’t get it. Doing this without their best player is wild.UNC goes up 6-2 in the 7th. Still has guys on.
These NC teams have such an advantage. Place isn’t full but the people there are pretty one sided.
Now 7-2.
Now up 10-2 - Beat down city. WildCarolina could be the 12 seed and somehow win their pool. They always show up in this tourney. I really don’t get it. Doing this without their best player is wild.
Which begs the question - there isn't a spring training site in FL somewhere that could host the tourney, say, every 5th year or so?UNC goes up 6-2 in the 7th. Still has guys on.

what you think there’s like an entire spring training league in Florida?Which begs the question - there isn't a spring training site in FL somewhere that could host the tourney, say, every 5th year or so?

It was fantastic in jacksonville. It should rotate year to yearIt has been held in St. Pete and Jacksonville. But it makes more sense to have it centrally located, which unfortunately means North Carolina.

Great town and great ballpark. Furman is right there. Shoeless Joe’s old package store as well.Greenville, SC would be a great host site. It's centrally located. Red Sox single A affiliate has a newer downtown ballpark. That place would be packed out a lot of games.
Clemson would get a fan boost for sure, but the ACC tournament has been held there before but Mike Martin complained about Clemson having too much of a home field advantage.
Whoa, Xavier over UConn jumps out.Late night score board
Arizona State beat Oregon St 14-10
Arkansas wins 5-4 over LSU

Dallas Baptist wins 10-2 over Western KY

Greenville would be awesome. I could actually do that trip. You could draw people from the north and east sides of metro Atlanta, and still draw from Charlotte.Greenville, SC would be a great host site. It's centrally located.

I for one...am a huge advocate for Greenville. As a matter fact it was recently announced that Spartanburg is getting a new stadium for a Low A affiliate from the RangersGreenville would be awesome.

Great little city with a lot of good food!Yeah, that stadium is designed to look like a slightly smaller version of Fenway. It's a lot of fun, I've seen a few games there. And it's close to the Shoeless Joe Jackson museum.
