AMELIA ISLAND, Fla. — It was over a year ago and it was similar to what is taking place this week at the Ritz Carlton on Amelia Island.
Clemson athletic director Graham Neff and Notre Dame athletic director Pete Bevacqua both attended a meeting, as they struck up a conversation about scheduling. As they started to talk and talked about the meaningful and memorable games Clemson and Notre Dame have played in the last 10 years, they got the idea of possibly playing some more.
“I think it was almost like a ‘Wala!’ moment, like why don’t we make this official and do this every year,” Bevacqua told The Clemson Insider during the ACC’s Spring Meetings on Tuesday.
