    Greensboro, moved from somewhere. Last Sunday-Monday in July? Two days instead of three. I think all that's right.

    A couple of years ago, somebody linked to a FWAA web page that listed all the media days dates. Anybody?

    ACC was going to be in Wesley Chapel, north of Tampa. More papers will go with it in Greensboro. Makes sense.

    How about a link to the AP story?

    another reason to move it to Greensboro - cost cutting at the conference level.

    I'm pretty sure our shop wouldn't have gone had it been in Tampa. Now we're sending two people down because it's less than two hours to Gboro.

    Never that Grandover is a hop, skip and a jump from conference headquarters.

    The way travel is going, the only media at the SEC media days will be the dipshit bloggers and radio geeks.
