John Swofford comments from the ACC Meetings...

Q: Commissioner Swofford, can you give us an update on the ACC Network?

Swofford: "It's a work in progress. Things are moving along. Next question!"

Q: Can you speak about the controversial North Carolina Bathroom Law also known as HB2?

Swofford: "Yes, I actually went in the women's restroom this morning and I must say, they are much cleaner and smell much better the men's restrooms. I think the ladies may have a problem with us men peeing on the toilet seats though, but once again, that's a work in progress. Thanks for coming, I have to hit the golf course now before it gets dark."

I agree with you. But the ACC has done it before. -- HOO86 05/09/2016 1:51PM

I don't know. I guess that's what they'll be talking about this week. ** -- HOO86 05/09/2016 1:29PM
