The business of the conference office gets significant media coverage where it is by the media across North Carolina and Virginia.  Joe Ovies, David Teel, etc. cover it.  The national media like ESPN pick up on some of it, but not all.  If the office moved to a new market that doesn't care about what it is doing and thinking, then it loses that.  Going to Atlanta and getting Tony Barnhart to cover the ACC would be a difficult expectation.  He'd cover it about like he does now.   It's possible to get a newfound interest in those markets, but the ACC HQ owns the one it's already in.   That's my only point.  There is no competition in college sports there to speak of.  I'm looking at this relating to getting your message out.  The ACC can have tournaments anywhere in the footprint it wants.  That's unrelated as you say.  The league just tries to cut down on collective travel expenses.

The ACC might be able to work in South Florida, but in that case the HQ would be so far away from the members to make that work.
