He may have never played in the league, but I'm on board with Griff being honored as a legend for every conference.
Here's the release:
Former University of Louisville All-America guard Darrell Griffith is among 14 former standout players and a three-time Atlantic Coast Conference Coach of the Year that headline this year's class of ACC Basketball Legends presented by New York Life.
