ESPN promises ACC Network will be different, unique than other networks

It was business as usual for the Atlantic Coast Conference this past week at its annual spring meetings in Amelia Island, Florida. Well, sort of.

The ACC covered a lot of ground this week at the Ritz-Carlton as the league’s coaches in football, men’s and women’s basketball and administrators went over topics such as sports wagering, the transfer portal, injury reports, future sites for its championships and much more.

However, the main theme of the week was the launch of the ACC Network, which will debut on Aug. 22.

“It was in a sense business as usual, but then again it wasn’t because we are within hundred days of the launch of the network,” ACC Commissioner John Swofford said Thursday to The Clemson Insider as well as a handful of media members who covered the meetings this past week.
