This is terrific news.  Because of NC's House Bill 2, the NCAA is moving several events out of NC.  College sports is huge in NC, bigger than professional sports.

Respectfully disagree. The Carolina Panthers coming off their Super Bowl appearance and NASCAR are bigger than college sports in NC. This boycott will not stop the Duke-UNC (Chapel Hill) basketball games which are the biggest college event in the state so the impact may not be as good as you may wish.
