Using geomidpoint.com I plotted every conference's 26-27 membership, and found a midpoint. From there, I found the nearest gym/arena that holds 1500+ people. All were within 65 miles of the midpoint, most much closer. Yes, this is dumb. Of course it'll never happen for all sorts of reasons. But I just wanted to see where the most "neutral" court would be for each conference. The table below lists where each conference should hold their tournament. I'll add images of the maps in the comments.

I'm genuinely curious what it would take for a low-major program to earn an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament.

Take teams like McNeese, UNC Wilmington, High Point and Western Kentucky. All are projected to be really good this year, but it feels like if any of them lose in their conference tournament, their NCAA Tournament hopes are basically over.

So what exactly is the path to an at-large for programs like these?

I know strength of schedule is a big part of the conversation, but how much can we really hold that against low-majors when we know how difficult it is for good teams at that level to get high-majors to schedule them in the first place?

I would love for the expanded field to include more NON power conference schools, but we all know thats not going to happen
