The Executive Committee of Pitt’s Board of Trustees hosted a five-minute conference call Friday afternoon, during which it voted unanimously to withdraw from the Big East Conference and formally accept the ACC’s invitation.
At a meeting held last week, the Board of Trustees discussed the possibility of Pitt joining the ACC as part of the NCAA realignment. After a presentation from Chancellor Mark Nordenberg and Pitt Athletic Director Steve Pederson, the board sent a letter to ACC officials to express Pitt’s interest in becoming a member of the conference.
The ACC Council of Presidents voted unanimously to invite Pitt and Syracuse University into the conference over the weekend.
The ACC — one of the NCAA’s six power conferences — includes Duke University, University of Miami, University of Maryland, Virginia Tech and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
