The NCAA will move seven championship events this academic year from the state of North Carolina, including the first and second round of the 2017 NCAA men's basketball tournament, because of the state's controversial HB2 law.
The NCAA's Board of Governors made the announcement late Monday night. The decision comes on the heels of the NBA moving the all-star game in February from Charlotte to New Orleans.

Great news! Only way to keep Duke from playing half of each NCAA basketball tournament in their home state.

Okay, I’ll bite. What does the University of Northern Colorado have to do with a North Carolina? A moonbat for president?

What’s with this half-measure? Either you’re against NC and HB2 or you’re not. The NCAA pulls 7 events? Why not all? Are they outraged or not? Or are they just trying to make a statement?
Clearly they’re trying to use money as the carrot. Since when are conservative values and morals up for sale?

The South needs to start its own sports program - disassociate from the NCAA.
