Some quotes from Coach K regarding the affects on hoops:

That something is basketball, and Krzyzewski is concerned about how the
league would be divided. Would the four teams in the state of North Carolina
-- Duke, North Carolina, N.C. State and Wake Forest -- be kept together?
What about Maryland and Virginia?
"All of a sudden, you wouldn't be playing these teams twice," Krzyzewski
said. "You start diluting your product at a time when we should be keeping
it up. The primary issue was that we did things a certain way with a true
round-robin schedule.
"We know in our season-ticket package that we get Maryland and North
Carolina every season. What happens if Clemson didn't get Maryland and
Carolina? That's not good for the fans."
Sounds like some of the arguments made about expanding C-USA to support
football.
