With John Swofford announcing his retirement Thursday afternoon, the clock started to tick on who will be his replacement.
Swofford announced the 2020-21 athletic year will be the last of his 24 years of service as the Atlantic Coast Conference Commissioner. He said he will continue in the commissioner’s chair until his successor is installed and will assist with the transition as needed.
Who are the candidates to replace Swofford? It could be somebody from Clemson.
Both Clemson University President Jim Clements and athletic director Dan Radakovich are being mentioned as possible successors for Swofford.
