The NCAA will be announcing today that the entire men's tournament will be played in/around Indy.
Haven't heard if that means the stadium, Bankers Life, Hinkle and the Coliseum, or if it'll go beyond those arenas. Would be great to see Worthen host a game or 8.
Also will be interesting to see if any fans are allowed.

Also will be interesting to see if any fans are allowed. It seems reasonable that for first round they would need Worthen Arena, Assembly Hall, Hulman Center and Mackey Arena too. That would give them 8 locations. They could run Thursday/Saturday and Friday/Sunday brackets at each location to get 16 "sites" with 4 teams at each site. |

Hosting just means that you supply people to assist with conducting the tournament.
Worthen may be a backup site.

Being the host school at Bankers Life is a better deal anyway. |

Worthen Arena will not be hosting tournament games due to a lack of a beer garden on premises....at least that's the rumor that I am starting. I hear Bud Light was granted exclusive rights 
(Now we'll see who the long-term fans of this program are on this board)

That was a very close call when the administration heroically stepped in and saved the students from exposure to an activity promoting alcohol.
