The one constant in the Dance every year is that it all starts in Dayton. We, meaning the city and university, get publicity for weeks as the final at large teams are debated and argued about. All basketball fans are aware of Dayton and the FF. The financial rewards may not be that great but the publicity for the FF and the way it is presented is a plus for the Dayton area. Agree that most sites are not remembered a few weeks after the games are played, but that is not the case for the First Four. I believe it is also in the interest of the NCAA to have a set site for the beginning of the tournement, not only from a butts in the seats standpoint but also fact that they would know that a proven team of experts will be running the show.
