Greenville is home field advantage for Clemson, but playing in Louisville, Ky is not homefield for Louisville...

Swoffhole would rather give Lville the home field advantage

than Clemson the home field advantage. It's clearly not about ticket sales and profit for the ACC...

So Greenville is too much of a home field advantage for us

but a stadium that is 3 miles from the campus one of the most distant school isn't. Good one Swofford and Mike Martin.

I think the Drive's stadium is just too small

GBraves stadium was a good bit bigger since it was Double A.
I'm surprised they didn't pick Coolray Field in Gwinnett or The Diamond in Richmond though.

It is, but its not like they are selling out anywhere else

if it can handle a Clemson/SC game, it can handle an ACC tournament.
From what I heard, Coolray was an option, but the G-Braves couldn't change the schedule. They are have a homestand the week of the ACC tournament.

Yeah now that I think about it, the ACC probably cares more about suites and amenities than they do about capacity.
Gotta have room for all of those ACC dignitaries and corporate sponsors to shmooze

A Myrtle Beach baseball tournament would have been perfect.
Louisville is pretty far from any other ACC school, but, it's better than tobacco road!

Shouldn't Swofford be forced to resign since he's associated with UNC, lives in NC and does everything with NC on his mind. That's the politically correct thing for him to do.

I didn't see anything about basketball, men's or women's. Did they move those out of North Carolina also?

Glad to see that both the Men's and Women's Golf tournaments will be in South Carolina...there are just way to many really good golf courses in this state not to have the ACC tournament located here...would have been nice though if both were being played in Pawley's Island and not just one but Musgrove Mill Golf Club in Clinton is very nice just the same

At least you can buy and drink beer in Lousiville..otherwise they should have put in in Atlanta. KSU or Ga State/ Turner Field.
