It will be interesting to see what happens with the Syracuse-Georgetown series.
 
Looking at Thompson's comments (excerpted below), he seems pretty indifferent about it.  I don't see him campaigning for it, but if I were him and was constantly losing to Syracuse, I might feel the same way. 
 
But when you read the article about Hoya attendance linked above, you can see how important the Syracuse rivalry is for Georgetown.  The coach might not want to play anymore but I think the AD will, I am sure the players do and I suspect even their fans will want it to continue.  For the record, I would like to see it continue as well.

Has it been important to our conference? Yes. But they’re leaving.
