UNC-CH paying NC A&T $300,000 to play football in 2015.

The A&T AD invokes us and MIchigan but also has a bit of a defeatist attitude as well.

I don't think the link is behind a paywall yet.

I would have thought A&T would have pulled in more than $300,000 thought part of that may be realizing their expenses traveling an hour down the road will be much less than any conference game for them.

It looks like the Holes are really trying to upgrade their schedules --- :o

"Ohio State football will no longer play a scheduled home-and-home series against North Carolina in 2017 and 2018, and a replacement should be named soon.

North Carolina announced the series cancellation on Wednesday, and Ohio State's Martin Jarmond, the executive associate athletic director tasked with making the football schedules, confirmed it to cleveland.com.

The Tar Heels also announced they had replaced the Buckeyes with a series against Cal.
