    @Patrick_Magee: Conference USA is expected to announce today its baseball tournament is coming to MGM Park in Biloxi in 2017. I'll have more details later.

    I went to a MiLB game at MGM Park in July. It's a good place to have the tournament. There's a lot to do in the area. I would like to see that area become the permanent site for basketball and baseball tournaments.

    I could dig that. An extended stay at Beau Rivage with a walk across the street to catch the games would be a great time.

    Do they have the facilities to handle the basketball tournament? I'd be good with it if they can do it.

    I'm not aware of any other basketball facility other than the Mississippi Coast Coliseum. It seats over 10,000 for basketball. Hopefully, there's another gym in the area that could be used for the women's tournament 1st and 2nd rounds.

    My primary point is that the basketball tournament should be at a neutral site. C-USA basketball is now starting it's 21st year of competition and the men's basketball tournament has NEVER been held in a neutral city.
