Could EKU host the Championships Games?
#3
Positives


+ Turf Surface
+ Central KY
+ Campus/Small Town Setting
+ Ample Parking
+ Less Likely for Schedule Conflicts (unlike PJCS)


Negatives

- Hotels in Richmond (plenty of motels, but limited true hotels. WKU alaso has this problem IMO. A large ammount of people would probably have to stay in Lex or Berea)
- Traffic Out of Richmond (not horrible, but much worse than Louisville)
- Seating Difference between Home/Away. One side is limited seating metal bleachers, the other is a massive concrete grandstand with a mixture of boxes, chairbacks, and bleachers. By far the biggest negative.


I personally think that EKU would be a good host site for 1A and 2A Finals, but you would have major issues on occasion with the 5A and 6A crowds.
