The note reads
“Dear John,
Congrats on your retirement. Over a long, fulfilled career, we can only think of one thing that was lacking.
Please accept our gift so that you can at least have some balls in retirement.
Sincerely,
The ball committee
PS Thanks for holding us back in TV revenue all these years to support your son

All I can say about his leaving is, "well, bye!", to borrow a quote from one of my favorite movies. He has been no friend, at all, to Clemson. Hopefully, next time, we get a good commissioner with no bias.

Unbelievable success for the ACC in every sport during Swofford's years. It will be hard to find a replacement that will be as respected and do the job as Swofford did.

The ACC has made some positive strides under Swoffie ... just not sure whether it because of him or in spite of him. Leaning the latter.

Didn’t he punish UNC with another year of no classes?
Just wondering.

Either have Danny send him a signed football from 1985 or a Gelbvieh bull ########.

Hope Clemson don't give him a football. Don't see how anyone could think he did any favors for the Tigers in football. A hairy ball would be very fitting.

I thought it said give him some balls.
Never forget the extra year of probation. Ever.

We got a bowling team, right? If not, let’s create one for this year only.
