I think Katz reported MSG was out a few weeks ago because of scheduling conflicts. DC was really a surprise, it had never been reported to be under consideration. I was hoping for Newark since it’s right by me but oh well.

I agree with Spike, the NCAA likes to give first time Final Four sites (Cowboys Stadium) a test-run a year before.

The next Final Four site always (for values of always in the range of the last 15-20 years) gets a regional the year before as a dress rehearsal.
