Story starts on the front page of the 'Post Standard' - Cantor's Play-By-Play, of Su's Move To ACC
*By John O'Brien - Staff Writer
The story's too long so i'll get straight to where people jumped the gun. This story is not online sorry. Its in the newspaper.!
In the news release that announced Su's move, Cantor said,"We look Foward to bringing ACC games to the Big Apple." The new conference means SU will play basketball powerhouses North Carolina and Duke in home conference games. Those Three teams have won the natiomal championship five out of the past 11 seasons. But Central New Yorkers might have to travel on occasion to see the showdowns.
"We havent gotten that far, but we absolutely have plans to do that-absolutely," Cantor said of moving some SU home games to a New York City arena, such as Madison Square Garden. "I wanted to make sure that(the ACC was)interested in playing competitions in the New York City area, because thats very important to us,"Cantor said."We see ourselves as New York's college team."
That doesnt mean fans wont be able to also catch the North Carolina and Duke games in the Carrier Dome some seasons, she said. "I'm really looking forward to the day we get 60,000 Central Yorkers in the Carrier Dome for Duke or North Carolina,"Cantor said. Su remains committed to keeping those games at the Dome on a regular basis, she said.
Im not going to right the rest, just what made everyone paranoid about 'Su Taking Duke & North Carolina home games to MSG?' - its not happening. Boeheim, Dr Gross, and fans, just jumped the gun. Cantor only contradicted herself about taking HOME GAMES - what it should of read" NON-Conference HOME GAMES. yes its a big boo boo, but i understood it, when it kept reading till(60,000 CNYers @Dome). Conference HOME Games(Duke,Unc,FSU,etc..,) at the dome. Big non conference(kansas, mich, ohiost,etc.,) at Msg or possible Barclay's in Brooklyn.
