Plus, as far as the fans of the teams go, it'd be better for them to not have to travel to two different cities.
I don't think they're going to move it out of Dayton, though. If they're gonna do it this way, then Dayton is probably the best place to have it.

I don't see your suggestion as viable from a ticket sales standpoint. Teams and sites announced on Sunday night gives no time for ticket sales. UD works year round to fill the Arena for those games. It would be embarrassing for the NCAA and teams to play in front of a couple thousand fans at most. To make it work, the NCAA would have to put some of their cards on the table like letting certain sites know in advance that they will have a 1 vs 16 seed game or a 5 vs 12 game. I don't see that happening.
