And for the record, I'm also glad UK stayed but of course I've got a lot of love for the UT-UK rivalry (that spans football and basketball).
It would be fantastic if UK could be rivals with UT again. There was some awesome history between the two schools. Not much, but some.

You guys are forgetting a couple things.
The ACC had a huge basketball revenue agreement back then. It rivaled the SEC in football. While it still makes tons of money, the SEC trumps all by far these days and for the years to come. We got the coaches fans "love to hate," in Saban, Spurrier, that loudmouth at Tennessee and Malzahn. It's a war every Saturday.
Lexington is a terrific road trip. Anyone who doesn't like that part of Kentucky is nuts.
