UConn VS Duke on Thanksgiving Eve

[ConnHuskBask]

I had been saying for years that the MTE are trash and there's zero juice playing at 11am in some high school gym or hotel ballroom.

Playing these games and making them premiere games grows the game and the UConn brand with Hurley being the face of the sport.

Vegas is what you make it - I personally love Vegas playing Craps all night. Game should be fun - based on what's currently on paper.

Would love to do this ... may need to make some reservations and find best place out there for Thanksgiving dinner with the family.

So by playing on a neutral site, neither the ACC nor Big East owns those rights and the schools can bring in money in addition to the conference payout.

The ACC owns the rights to these three games. They conveyed them to Amazon in exchange for getting Duke to commit to ESPN Feast Week stuff (ie: NOT Players Era or Acrisure in Palm Springs) for three years
