Commissioner Phillips said schools will be fined for court and field storming for player and coaches safety. This new rule could affect how Clemson conducts “Meeting at the Paw” which has been allowed at Clemson since Memorial Stadium was first built in 1942.
Phillips made this announcement during his Commissioner’s Forum to kick off ACC Football Kickoff (media days) at the Hilton Uptown in Charlotte.
Clemson Athletics released a statement on Commissioner Phillips announcement of the the new rule.
