Personally I was disappointed when America East dropped the rotating tourney - I loved going to it every year.

The MAAC has tried moving their tourney to other locations and it's never worked out.  It's a tough spot - low-major conferences like America East and the NEC do the higher seed at home thing - legitimate conferences don't.  So the MAAC  either takes a perception hit by going to a low major format, play in alternate places (who knows where, because at this point it's well established that they can't draw) and accept the tourney isn't a revenue stream, or play in Albany.  Since they won't try the first option and have abandoned the second on multiple occasions, it's pretty obvious it's going to be in Albany.

ESPN radio has talked about dropping the auto-bids for two decades.  It was stupid and unworkable 20 years ago, it's stupid and unworkable now.  They'll be talking about it in 2037...and it will still be stupid and unworkable.
