Clemson’s Swinney can’t wait for Belichick’s positive impact on the Atlantic Coast Conference

Associated Press  

CLEMSON, S.C. — Practice plans. Still, Swinney had enough time to follow how Super Bowl-winning coach Bill Belichick joined the Atlantic Coast Conference as North Carolina’s new leader. “It’s going to be something seeing him walk into ACC meetings or things like that.” Swinney has had his hands full this week prepping for the fifth-seeded Longhorns on Friday. Swinney took some time, though, to recall his only meeting with Belichick, which came at one of Clemson’s pro days during the Tigers’ run of six straight CFP appearances from 2015-20. And again, for him to want to come into that, I think, says a lot.” Will Belichick rival Swinney’s news conferences, known for being quite lengthy as he willingly answers just about every question asked?
