Future basketball tournament site NOT released

"I’d hoped we would be able to come out of here with an announcement but we’re not quite there yet," he said. "Some of it is just the logistics of not only getting a consensus of what’s that right rotation, but it’s also about availability in particular years of venues."

Hmmm...was thinking the same thing. That is an expensive arena. Could be a stretch for the BE budgets.

The Big East is doing okay with MSG...however, they realize having a contract through 2025 is a huge bargaining chip. There is no comparison between Barclays and MSG. Hopefully the ACC can get to MSG 3-4 times a decade

Food Lion is owned and operated by the Belgians. Of course it sucks. Duh. As for Bojangles, you keep your damn dirty hands away from my savory biscuits. Even though I can't have the carbs anymore. :(

Well, if it was all going to be Greensboro then we know it would already have been announced, right?

I mean seriously, what the hell else is happening in Greensboro?

It has to be New York - either MSG or Barclays? The Islanders are building a new arena on Long Island. Maybe that would work? Personally, I don’t think there’s anything like MSG.

I’ve now experienced a bunch of different sites and they all pale in comparison to “The World’s Most Famous Arena.” Now, the flipside to that is all of those places are also cheaper than Midtown Manhattan, so there’s that. Greensboro is incredibly cheap. However, if you’re looking to actually have fun, it’s definitely NYC every single time...and not by a little bit.

Sounds as if there may be some internal dissension and brings into question as to whether we chose the right partners.

Yeah right, as if there were better targets available for the ACC.

True, but I think the other schools will give UNC time to get their ducks in a row before they would even consider expelling the Tar Heels...

I've actually been to Bojangles a few times...the food is very hit or miss it kinda depends on how busy the place is and if the minimum wage employees give AF.

I've had much better luck with Zaxby's.

Bojangles has some good food. I love the gritbowl which has grits scrambled eggs and sausage in a bowl with cheese over the top. Only certain bojangles serve it. But the chicken has a very different taste than what one is used to with popeyes (Also very good) and KFC. Had Zaxby's a couple of times but was not so impressed. My sons and wife loves it.

The problem is that arenas want long term contracts. They don't want to see you once every 3 or 4 years. A rotation of Charlotte-DC-Greensboro-NYC sounds great to fans but it is a very hard sell to arenas. The ACC should partner with the AAC, BE, and A10(?) and offer a package deal. The ACC might have to sweeten the pot with some regular season games but that seems easy enough.

Sure, arenas would like long term contracts but I'm not buying that any arena other than MSG is attractive enough to demand them. What other conference is eager to sign a long term contract with Charlotte or DC or Greensboro or even Barclay's?

BTW, not that I'm all that eager to have the tournament there, but why is it that Atlanta isn't in the mix? They certainly have been in the past. I'd certainly be unhappy about that if I were a Ga Tech, FSU or Miami fan.

That’s a great question. We share your concerns.

Maybe you can go back to your previous contract as well? We will take with us the money that we caused ESPN to pay the league and we will all go our separate ways.
