For those who know, is there any major obstacle preventing UNC from reversing which side of the stadium gets shown on TV? Games get shot from the Home side, looking at the away side, which does several things that harm the "look" of UNC on a broadcast:

1). It shows the away team's bench much more than the home bench; or at least you see the away bench facing forward
2). The away side stands are usually more sparsely attended compared to home side. We don't need any extra help making the stadium looking empty
3). Shows more away fans than home fans because the away section is on that side plus the smattering that sits down low all along that side
4). In general, regardless of which side the game is shot from, the first couple rows are always empty (no blame being passed out here....those seats suck and UNC should be embarrassed they charge money for people to sit there), which also looks bad on TV. They'd never do it, but I'd love for them to tarp off the first 2-3 rows in a classy looking way so as to avoid the look of completely empty roads.

I don't know, I'm just thinking out loud here. And gosh darnit, whoever approved the location of the Blue Zone is dumb. It looks SOOO bad on TV when an extra kick is attempted from that side. Ugh it looks horrible.
