Cost is living, this is not about people its about BUSINESS
Frankly the move is not about the person in the acc office in Greensboro and if they are going ot be able to move and take their family. (hate to be cynical.. but its about media access to national marketf for a major sports property.
Charlotte is the perhaps the favorite here, for the schools 5 hours around charlotte, but with the DC market and national presence the ACC would have the in roads for national attention. (thats why Big 10 grabbed maryland).....
And with Washington within 4-5 years building a new sports complex (probably in Va) with a domed football stadium, it would be a great venue for the ACC championship....ALso, Amazon partnership is ripe for the opportunity.
For example NFL New york, big 10 chicago, big 12 Dallas/ft worth, and pac 12 moving from from SF to Las Vegas. Only SEC remains in birmingham but you can bet huge support office in Atlanta.
either way, leaving in Greensboro, really doesn't enable the conference to have access.
