When Louisville\u2019s Rick Pitino joins the league\u2019s coaching ranks in 2014-15, the ACC will have four of the five active Naismith Hall of Fame coaches.<\/p>\n
Starting with the Virginia at Duke game in Durham, N.C. on January 13, ESPN will showcase eight ACC games basketball on its weekly \u201cBig Monday\u201d telecast. Each \u201cBig Monday\u201d game is set for a 7 p.m. tip and will be televised nationally by ESPN.<\/p>\n
