Conference announces attendees for ACC Kickoff

Clemson Football will be at the ACC Kickoff on July 25th. As usual, head coach Dabo Swinney will address the audience.

This season he is bringing four student-athletes with him to Charlotte, North Carolina. Barrett Carter, Cade Klubnik, Phil Mafah, and RJ Mickens will join Swinney to answer questions from the media on the upcoming season.

As he previously mentioned on his social media, former Florida State quarterback and former Clemson Tiger DJ Uiagalelei will not be attending ACC Kickoff. Instead, FSU will send Joshua Farmer, Patrick Payton, and Darius Washington.

The only other team not sending their projected starting quarterback is Wake Forest.
