The ACC makes its reintroduction to the college football world ahead of the 2022 season at the ACC Football Kickoff on Wednesday and Thursday at the Westin Charlotte in Charlotte, North Carolina. Every ACC coach will speak at the annual media days event, along with three players per school.
ACC commissioner Jim Phillips will give opening remarks on the state of the conference and college football at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday. After his hour is complete, the Atlantic Division will take center stage on the first day as Florida State, Wake Forest, Louisville, NC State, Boston College, Syracuse and Clemson. The Coastal Division goes on Thursday with new Miami coach Mario Cristobal starting the day. North Carolina, Pitt, Virginia, Duke, Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech close out the proceedings.
The full roster of ACC Atlantic Division coaches are back in 2022. However, Cristobal headlines four new coaches in the Coastal Division. Others include Virginia's Tony Elliott, Duke's Mike Elko and Virginia Tech's Brent Pry. Pitt coach Pat Narduzzi returns after leading the Panthers to their first conference championship in program history.
Here is a complete list of the speaking schedule over the two days of events, including players that will represent each school.
