Donahue has interest in Arizona PG Jahii Carson. I am glad to see us working the 2011 targets, but we still need a flyer or two for the 2010 class! We are still waiting on the official word from Kevin Noreen.

ACC Meeting news and other links
The the pending TV deal(s) look like they will be the major news coming out of the ACC meetings. My guess is that there will not be an ACC network. I also doubt we will align with one provider like the SEC did with ESPN. Instead, I predict the ACC deal will have renewal arrangements with ABC/ESPN, CBS (for basketball), Raycom and Fox. The money will grow, but not be enough to end expansion talks. Speaking of expansion...it is on everyone's mind (including Gene's) yet no one at the ACC has any definitive solution or statement. It is all wait and see. Since all the players are dancing around the issue, I think the ACC remains vulnerable. Until the conference announces a new partnership plan which includes huge departure penalties, every school is a flight risk. Ugh, I know in the long run BC will be okay, I just don't want to see us in the ACC/Big East leftovers conference.

Good lord, did you see the Carson highlights on youtube. If we somehow landed him, I don't care if I start at center for next year.
"a skilled big man who can face the basket and shoot from the perimeter."
Good to see our string of big white guys who want to shoot from outside tradition continues!

* - Not that he's a big man, but we have no bigs so he plays out of position
** - If he comes to BC
The best case for the ACC in expansion this go around is not to lose any teams (a big if). We've always made fun of the Big East's 16 team basketball conglomerate but that was born of necessity. I know it's TV dollars driving this but at some point a 14 team conf. is at least 2 teams too many and probably closer to 5. In the ACC we already don't play a # of teams more than once every 3 years. How can you be considered to be in the same conf. as someone if you play them less than that?
erik -- sad to see a BC grad so obsessed with the race of players and so willing to buy into and promote racial stereotypes. you, erik, are an ignorant loser, if not worse.
Thanks for your support! God bless the USA.
Blame Canada, with all their beady little eyes, and flapping heads so full of lies
P.S. I actually like Canada, that's just a jackass comment to make (like the one above)
Glad to see the race card pulled, by a Canadian no less. Has Hope n' Change permeated that far in North America already? Just wave the white flag high when you get demolished (verbally speaking of course).
Mr. Bill -- Erik is the one trafficking in racial stereotypes, not moi.
After he shares his thoughts on large white players, will pea-brained Erik then share his thoughts on large black players, or small hispanique players?
vous êtes tous les porcs insupportable fascisit américain
Canada Eagle is a troll with a standard online dictionary/ translation website, we should ignore the troll much like we ignore Canada's opinions on anything other than maple syrup or wayne gretzky
I am not a troll Galvin, much as you would like to believe. I am sure you can find some of my old posts.
It is funny that you and Bravesbill and Erik see the work "Canada" in my name and you start making stupid assumptions. Thank God I did not use the word "France" or "China" -- that really would have set you all off on a slur holiday. You are all embarassments to the name Boston College. For shame.
Oui, je utiliser le service de traduction. J'ai besoin de le faire parce que je ne suis pas français. Mais cela vaut mieux que vous RAS. Galvin et Erik, vous trous du cul complètement embarrasisng qui sont très faciles à tromper
USA Soccer roster is out- no Charlie Davies
Yea, I am really bummed about Davies. He worked so hard to recover. He is young though and can still definitely make it in 2014. Alejandro Bedoya is on the 30 man roster though. That's great news for him. I was hoping to have two BC guys on the squad.
no stereotyping was done by erik. the fact of the matter is that all the guys he listed are in fact:
1. big
2. white
3: inclined to shoot from the perimeter.
The only way to fix this is a beer summit. LeBatt's of course.
I have a hard time imagining that Bedoya will make the final-23. Time will tell
How about those Canadiens?
