And with all due respect for you Red, do you honestly think these two tournaments would have been assigned to these venues if there were better options? And as far as atmosphere, these two facilities will have worse atmosphere than what was had at Wichita!?!?
Will 6A state at Olathe Northwest High School have a worse atmosphere than what was had at Wichita? YES, and it won't even be close. Wichita still had that big arena feel to it. From driving up to the building, the capacity, seating etc. From top to bottom it is not even close! This decision is an embarrassment and deserves to be overturned. We should all do everything we can to fix this. To have a High School career end at a High School gym in 2008 makes the stomach sink in every kid, when told what he has to look forward to. Is there anyone who thinks this is OK?
