I agree except for your minimum standards. Partially because a lot of whether you host or not is based on a committee. If we have an RPI of 14 and win 19 SEC games and go in as a 2 seed, we're firing a coach because of THAT? And then what if we don't host but make a SR? Hosting is not a cut and dried thing.

The other thing is IF the rumors are true, we could be starting a ton of freshmen next year. We could make pretty tangible progress and not host. We'll have to wait and see how that all shakes out. There are too many unknown factors at this time to truly make a rational judgement on it. Regardless, I do know that hosting is not a tangible or rational way to look at it.
