Making sense of the ACC spring meetings, and the ACC’s so-called demise
In a special edition of the ACC Now podcast, The News & Observer’s Andrew Carter, still recovering from a hard week of work on Amelia Island, Florida, tries to make sense of the ACC’s annual spring meetings. Is the league really on the verge of collapse, as so many postulate on social media? And what to make of all this talk of a “Magnificent Seven” looking to break away?
That and more, with appearances by Duke athletic director Nina King, and ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips.

Customer Reviews
Is this podcast over?
No update since May 2023 with football season coming up fast...looks like N and O is giving up on ACC, just like everyone else. A danged shame.
Still experts
N&O changed a lot over the years but Luke DeCock has been steady for 20 years as a smart, funny writer and observer of Truangle sports. The crew around him is fair, knowledgeable and varied as he uses his contacts to bring in quality guests. Good sports pod!
Get these guys some proper mics!
I enjoy this podcast, and the knowledge and personality the different hosts and guests bring, but the audio quality is consistently poor.
