North Carolina lawmakers propose bill to pull UNC, NC State from ACC for further boycotts

As you know already, the ACC (and NCAA) moved neutral-site postseason games from the state of North Carolina last year in the wake of the state passing HB2. After rolling back select portions of the bill, which has been criticized as discriminatory toward the transgender community, the conference (and NCAA) elected to once again consider the state for championship sites.

While businesses like the NCAA and ACC (and NBA, along with other enterprises) moving away from the state all create financial hardships for North Carolina, only one of those entities -- the ACC -- has its headquarters there.
