I thought you guys didn’t care about the ACC.

Nice try.
We don’t care about the ACC. We care about the Niners beating Clemson.

Why not do a blackout for an A-10 team? Xavier?

Why not ask the person that made the decision?

Who made it?
I think it’s a great idea, will be cool for TV. If that’s the reason, I understand. But that game, in the grand scheme, doesn’t seem as important as a Xavier game would be.
Edit: It doesn’t appear to be a TV game.
Xavier is going to be a white out.
Actually, it’s a good question. Rate the home games in terms of importance, top 5.
FWIW, I’d put Clemson at No. 1, because that’s your best chance to impress the locals. Even more than Xavier, even though Xavier is better most years.
Impress the locals? Who in Charlotte thinks that Clemson has a solid basketball program? Charlotte is a town full of heels fans and blue devils fans who basically consider Clemson basketball a joke.
The only way we’re gonna impress the locals is if we make it to the NCAA’s and actually do some damage. That’s it.

Why not do an article on why its taken 13 years for an ACC team to play at Halton?

Zing!!

I dunno man, I’m with Mike on this one. Yeah Clemson usually sucks in basketball, but the typical WalMart ACC sniffing Charlottean still thinks Clemson is better than Charlotte simply because they are in the ACC. To your average Charlottean, us beating Clemson is much more impressive than us beating Xavier.
Either way, I can’t wait for us to beat these chumps by 30 :shades:
Actually, it's a good question. Rate the home games in terms of importance, top 5.Traditionally we compete with Clemson for a lot of recruits so that does have an added importance. We also may be competing for an at-large bid so you have that as well.FWIW, I’d put Clemson at No. 1, because that’s your best chance to impress the locals. Even more than Xavier, even though Xavier is better most years.

i would be shocked if someone does not broadcast it locally.

And most “local” basketball fans I know consider us a better program than Clemson, including the acc fans. Apparently, Mikey P is the only one thinking (or wishing) otherwise.
