The ACC’s board of directors has endorsed a new “success incentive initiative” that could help Clemson in a big way starting next year.
The plan, announced Wednesday, will provide extra revenue to ACC schools based on their “performance in revenue-generating postseason competition” such as the College Football Playoff and NCAA men’s and women’s basketball tournaments, on top the conference’s annual distributions to its 14 member schools.
The ACC, in a news release, said the endorsement of the plan followed “analysis and discussions that have occurred throughout the past year.” Specifics of the plan are “in progress” and will be confirmed in the coming months ahead of its rollout for the 2024-25 academic year.
