Meh, sounds like they acquiesced to Boehiem's whining from a year ago (I know that's not what happened but that's what it looks like) therefore I don't like it.
That said, it's good to get it out of the state of NC.
Not so fast (Lee Corso voice)...
NYC has a huge ACC alumni base, including tons of folks from Duke, UNC, & UVA busy making dough as bankers, lawyers, etc. They'll have plenty of fans at those games.
We've got a solid little GT group in the tri-state area. Legacy Big East will obviously travel.
Also, as you mentioned, good to get it out of NC.
