"I don't know what's coming out of South Carolina, but the state is being rather aggressive," Lynch said.
Cities compete for FedEx Ground hub : News-Record.com : Greensboro, North Carolina
Notice the jobs number from this article and the Greenville News one are different. LOL.

Didn't Greensboro already receive a large hub for FedEx several years ago? GSP was in the running then as well.
