" Omaha has become viable for basketball with the recent addition of seats to Qwest Center Omaha. The new listed capacity of 17,500 meets the Big 12 minimum.
Kansas City's new Sprint Center will seat 18,500. The Ford Center in Oklahoma City seats 18,879.
Officials in Kansas City estimate a $15 million economic impact from the 2008 basketball tournaments, which run on a Tuesday through a Sunday in early March. History indicates the events draw about 8,000 to 10,000 out-of-town fans to a host city.
Big 12 Commissioner Kevin Weiberg, in previous interviews, said the league at one time discussed "anchoring" the championship events in one city for a three- to four-year period.
Recently, the discussion has been more about continuing to rotate events.
Despite that, speculation has surfaced that when the Dallas Cowboys' new $1 billion football stadium is completed in 2009 that the Big 12 football title game might go there and stay long term.
If that happened, Kansas City has been seen as a likely anchor site for the basketball tournaments.
Said Gray: "We would love that to be the case, if that happens."
