Message: [QUOTE="Hoo's That, post: 2668905, member: 3609"] The rumor was the B1G was going to take us, UNC and maybe Ga Tech. I don't think any of the fans from those schools was looking forward to playing in Madison or Minneapolis in November. It's one thing to have either of your basketball teams play in Iowa City some year in the Challenge and it's quite another [U]to have to[/U] send your field hockey team to Iowa City every other year. Louisville was added strictly to keep Clemson and $U from bolting. No one had a problem with that. AMOF, Louisville is using its membership as a means to get money from the state raise its academics, just like $U did. We said this a lot back then. Neither UVa nor UNC would do [U]anything[/U] to cause the ACC to break up, but we would have a soft landing. If we had to leave, I wanted us to go to the SEC. [/QUOTE]
