Per ESPN.com (our bold):
The Indiana-Kentucky regular-season series is over for the foreseeable future because neither school could agree on where to play the series. Indiana wanted the series to continue in a home-and-home setup. Kentucky wanted to move back to neutral site games and offered to play the series at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
After months of behind-the-scenes bickering over whether to play the games on campus, as Indiana prefers, or at neutral sites, as Kentucky prefers, Hoosiers athletic director Fred Glass ended the debate. "In the final analysis, we want our student-athletes, our overall student body and our season-ticket holders to enjoy this series at Assembly Hall," Glass said.
Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart said Indiana notified him of the decision earlier Thursday. Barnhart described that as a change from previous discussions with Indiana officials. "I guess they're putting that out there as a final conversation, so we'll go on from there, do what we have to do," Barnhart said. "We've been playing the games since the early 1950s, somewhere in that range. It's been a while. It's disappointing for that not to continue."
Unconfirmed sources from both schools also said each wanted to find a way to sustain a goose that kept laying golden eggs. But when they couldn't decide on where to keep the eggs, they decided to kill the goose.
