Message: [QUOTE="WoadBlue, post: 1620311, member: 1145"] If ESPN wants Dook and Syracuse to play basketball Home-Away every year, ESPN will pay for it. If ESPN coughs up the right money, and an ACC network, the ACC will revamp basketball scheduling to bring it more into line with what ESPN wants to try to maximize northeastern TV interests. I do see how Dook-Cuse annually Home-Away could become a nasty beast, but arranging that will cost other teams something, which means to bring it to fruition, ESPN must pay the league. As that is not happening and may not, ACC basketball will remain as is. Only 2 annual Home-Away rivals works well for getting everyone around the league well. Dook's 2 most obvious rivals are UNC (the biggest rivalry in the sport) and Wake. [/QUOTE]
