I don't agree that JB will never coach in the ACC.   Aside from Hop being named coach in waiting have we really seen any other real signs that JB is ready to retire.    As long as you talk about retirement in the "couple of years from now" context it's all just talk in my book.   I'm beginning to think he may go the way of JoPa.   There are lots signs that would point to retirement, but I don't that he has come to the point where he is ready to pull the trigger.   (Just my relatively uniformed view.)

The move to the ACC  is a huge change and could very well serve as a jumping off point for him.    It could just as easily represent a new challenge that reinvigorates him and drives him to continue.   Might be fun to coach in a league with K and Roy with trips to new locales.

One big advantage of going to the ACC is the style change.   I have always preferred the uptempo style our teams played in the late 80s and at other times during the JB tenure.   I would much rather see us move to a more offensive, more wide open style of play than the clutch and grab style that Pitt has brought to the Big East.    I don't want them to play a game where no defense is played, but I really hate 50-49 games and multiple possessions in a row where neither team scores.
