That would be my question.  The draft is usually during the same time period of the NBA playoffs, the Hornets might not be a threat for that but have to suspect the NFL nor NBA would take the chance if the Hornets had to play home games in their arena.  Convention center doesn't have the pop, holding it in BOA is fine if no rain, unless Tepper gets started on that roof quick, don't know where to hold it.

One of the great cities on Earth. If you're a big city person?! We got that. Country person? We got that. Lakeside people? Got plenty of that on the outskirts. Half way between NY and Miami. Three hours from the coast and all it offers.

Well, we're still talking a few years down the road, so there may be time for some things to get done.

I love watching the Draft!! This will be great!!

The turnout in Philly was amazing.  I like that they are moving it around to other cities other than NYC. I think Tepper, The Panthers and Charlotte would put on a great show. 

Nothing could be Finer than the NFL Draft to be in Carolina.

Charlotte is a great city but I wouldn’t label it as one of the greatest on earth.  I suppose it depends on how broad you use the term great but I could name about 50 cities that would and could be labeled one of the greatest cities on earth over the QC.

The one in Philly was a platform built on the steps of the Philly Art Museum.  It was cool.

What would REALLY be something is if the NFL draft was the first event in a newly remodeled and covered BOA.
