Default USCC Buyout?

I know that back in 2008/2009 the parent company and the majority shareholder was pushing USCC to put itself up for sale. But the USCC CEO wouldn't have it. Now with the USCC CEO retiring this year, do you think that the parent company is going to try again and succeed? I hope not

TDS would be foolish to sell off USCC. USCC is consistently profitable whereas various divisions of TDS are not.

I don't see USCC being sold anytime soon. Even though I dislike their service, they are a very profitable company.
