I heard the rumors. Don't think they are accurate.
Jim Delaney wanted to know more about why the rule needed to be changed. He didn't want unintended consequences to changing the rule requiring divisions and round robin in the division.
I don't think ND was part of his thinking. ND can't play in the ACC championship unless they play a full ACC schedule. I think he wanted to have someone say we would do PODS or something, but we couldn't do PODS with 14 anyway, so Swofford just wanted the rule removed without fully explaining how the ACC would use it. Everyone is seeing the need for removing the rule now.
