Could NCAA Baseball Tourney make it with regional sites?

No. because the #1 seed deserves some type of reward. And in baseball, home field is so key. Plus, fixed sites equals less fans and less revenue imo.

Like UNC playing in North Carolina? Do you REALLY think that less fans would come see LSU in New Orleans instead of at the Box?

College baseball doesn't have the following for that

there are plenty of "Hosting Cities" like New Orleans that these top seeds have crowds drawing them to. Have one city host two regionals and there would be two supers at one site.

I think you would have to do it like that for it to work. LSU could "host" in New Orleans, Ole Miss in Memphis, UGa and Tech in Atlanta or Gwinett, there could be games in Houston, Cary NC, Los Angeles

Most northern/northeastern/mid west people could give a shite about college baseball FWIW

a lot of the southern teams are like that...look at the BR regional last year...USM had a fair showing but nothing like they would have had at home and BR is only 2 hours from hattie.

and aside from LSU, USM probably has the best baseball following in the area.
