John Swofford says Clemson's success "has meant a great deal" to the ACC

CHARLOTTE, NC – Clemson’s success is the Atlantic Coast Conference’s success.

ACC Commissioner John Swofford delivered a state of the union address Wednesday at the ACC Kickoff in Charlotte, and he said that it’s hard to put a value on what Clemson’s football success has meant to the conference.

The Tigers have won two of the last three National Championships in football, including capping a 15-0 season with a 44-16 drubbing of Alabama in the title game at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara in January.

“Well, I don't think you can even measure it. It has meant a great deal, there's no question about that,” Swofford said.
