The Atlantic Coast Conference's news conference today from NASDAQ's Times Square location in New York City just finished. ACC Commissioner Swofford welcomed the three new member institutions; University of Notre Dame (please note Mike Brey's ND shirt already has ACC on sleeve), University of Pittsburgh and Syracuse University. Key highlights:
- The newly constituted conference -- has the largest number of TV households of any conference in the country.
- In 2030, it's estimated that 55% of the United States' population will reside in the footprint of the Atlantic Coast Conference
- Translation -- if you want to do a TV negotiation with the ACC -- bring your wallet!
