An intrepid member of our selection team here asked if once the seeds start taking shape, keeping the inevitable host sites in mind, whether the committee is ever moved to change a team's seeding for geographical/ticket sale purposes.

"We might want to do it, but we wouldn't do it," Donohoe assured us. Once the seeds are voted in, it would take a vote of seven of ten committee members (and presumably a rationale other than ticketing) to change a team's seed.
