Bugeaters1 Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 That Nebraska and PBA will be hosting a men's Regional Next. A co worker ask if I had heard that Lincoln would be hosting a men's regional this basketball season. He told me that his son who lives in Omaha had heard that Lincoln was hosting. I told him that I hadn't heard any thing so I'm turning to you guys for input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Belcher Posted June 9, 2014 Report Share Posted June 9, 2014 Omaha isn't even hosting a regional, they have the 2nd/3rd round games. It is extremely unlikely that either city would ever host a regional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

49r Posted June 10, 2014 Report Share Posted June 10, 2014 Omaha isn't even hosting a regional, they have the 2nd/3rd round games. It is extremely unlikely that either city would ever host a regional. While technically this is true (the NCAA calls them "preliminary" rounds)...they're still commonly referred to as regionals. The four sites that host 4th/5th rounds host what most refer to as the regional finals. Everybody knows what Bugeaters was talking about. But having that said, is Lincoln even able to host the men's tournament in any capacity? I know that rules dictate a certain number of hotels within a certain radius of the arena, but I don't know if they're over that threshold.

It's going to take a lot more investment into LNK before we start hosting anything big like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell we will even drive you around, and if your parents are in town they also have a place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
