You also have to remember that until Lawrence went to the 60th a couple of years ago, that wouldn't have had the chance to even happen..One of the 3 would have stayed home.

That's why when a lot of people (and I don't mean 57th people) spoke about the ridiculousness of Lawrence moving to the 60th I didn't see it that way. I saw it as improving the regional tourney instantly! By having LC, JC, and Paintsville in the region you can guarantee the best field of teams will be in the tourney.

Personally, I loved that idea that was floating around about a super regional tournament replacing the current format. I think some sort of a double-elimination style regional, like what they do at the collegiate level, would be awesome! But we know that this won't ever happen....makes too much sense.
