JB said this a week after the move was announced in 2011. Doesn't sound like a man who wants to stay in the Big East and not go to the ACC:

Boeheim: "I cant believe nobody wrote that this was a good move in your paper. All the letters were negative. And what theyre saying is Are we going to see great basketball teams games? What difference does it matter what the uniform says? If we play eight, 10, 12 great home games, what difference does it matter? If its great basketball, were playing great games. What matters if its Providence or its Wake Forest? Or Georgetown or Duke? As long as theyre going to see great basketball. Were not going to a bad league. It has the best record over the last 30 years of any league in the country. Period. Now right now, I think the Big East is a little better. But over 30 years? Theyve got the most championships, the most Final Four appearances, etc., etc. So were going to a great league and its going to be great basketball. Period. Its obviously a very stable league."

"Im unhappy the Big East broke up. Thats a completely different thing than saying Im unhappy about going to the ACC. I think its a great league. I think we can benefit from being in the ACC. Its a great basketball league. If anything, it helps our recruiting."
