It’s cool to see that the Southern Conference basketball tournament will come to Charlotte in 2010. It was originally scheduled to go to Chattanooga, Tenn., next season, but instead will come to a bigger -- and for most of the schools, a closer -- venue.
I’ve gone to the last three Southern Conference tournaments, and I can tell you that they are an underrated gem. The drama is nearly always better than the ACC tournament, where the top 5-6 teams know they’re already getting into the NCAA tournament.
Of course, the tournament would be a WHOLE lot better in 2010 if Davidson’s Stephen Curry returned for his senior year -- that would give it the headliner it would otherwise lack. I expect Curry’s “stay-or-go-to-the-NBA” decision to come soon.
