    Yes, to both of your questions. Also, the NCAA has been scared off by some of the bidders.

      I wonder if the the Xcel Engery Center cost to much for the University of Minnesota. I am guessing it cost more to use that arena compared to arena that holds around 10,000.

              I think that has more to do with the frozen four next year and final four the year after so Minn didn't bid this round.

                  Must have been for an on-campus regional. Schlossman reported that there were no other off-campus bids in the West and Midwest outside of Sioux Falls/Fargo and Allentown.

                      I was there. There was way more than 300 people.

                      Official attendance was listed at 3,887. Rochester has a large number of Clarkson alumni.

                        Rochester was far from a good venue. I don't know if it was the 2pm start on Friday, the fact that we completely outplayed UMass but couldn't score, or the fact that the "facelift" that they put on the Blue Cross Arena wasn't even lipstick on a pig. The pregame at the Dinosaur BBQ was worth it though. Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany all have arenas capable of hosting regionals but they seem to have gravitated the east regional toward New England. Bridgeport is at least a nice arena, even if the Islanders play there.

                          Could be. But it would be the first time they haven't bid in decades then.

                            I've read multiple reports that the Penn State/Allentown bid was the only bid submitted at all for the Midwest regional.

                              Thanks, that's what I was assuming then. Can't force traditional places like Minnesota and Michigan to host if they don't want to. So maybe what needs to be looked at is why these other places aren't bidding. What can be done to make them more likely to bid etc

                                The obvious answer is there are not enough appropriately sized neutral venues close enough to the schools that would host.
