The acceptance rate in the part-time program is about 90%. We still have a lot of construction remaining so I think infrastructure remains a work in progress and will be long after Fr.

Leahy has been spending money on infrastructure deals for decades but does not seem able to do more than one thing at a time because the undergrad rankings have plateaued, MBA is down and law school is down. The infrastructure deals are done so let's see what if anything he focuses on improving going forward.Knuckleheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07847627726401491567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-6628434552543708912017-10-09T19:48:00.884-04:002017-10-09T19:48:00.884-04:00Section D,

Athletics is the public face of the University. I am concerned that mismanagement is pervasive beyond athletics. If the athletic department symbolizes what is going on at BC overall I am very upset<br /><br />Is the English department in the same disarray that the athletic department is in? Is the business school as poorly run as the football team? Are the physics and chemistry departments as apathetic and diastrous as the basketball team? The most recent college rankings are telling the same story for the university as a whole. I know what I see on national tv and read in the media. Both are letting me know that the current state of BC is atrocious.

Would you promote either of our coordinators to an interim role? I'm not sure I would. The last time we promoted a coordinator to the HC position, it was Spaz. I fully agree that Daz needs to go. I just think it will be within 24 hours of our last game of the season. Let's see who else gets let go and maybe there will be a good fit. Gosh, let's hope so. <br /><br />It's hard to imagine any worse. Yes, I know we were 0-11 in 1978 but we're loading up on cupcakes and still struggling. 4-8 at best this year. At least there will be no question that Daz must go. I was really worried about a 6-6 season buying him one more year.<br /><br />Fr. Leahy is 69. Most Jesuits retire at 70. And we have a new Board chair. Let's see what happens. He seems to care much more about how pretty the grounds are than athletics.<br />bceagle91https://www.blogger.com/profile/00982786161321083825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-27875175778728911802017-10-09T18:19:45.448-04:002017-10-09T18:19:45.448-04:00Matt states it perfectly.

I knew year one he stunk. It's year five now and there is no chance he will ever be decent. Yet BC continues on with him with little concern about the apathy that has settled around a losing team. I used to never miss BC football game. Now I don't have any interest in it. When a college shows disdain for those interested in its sports by producing, year after year, losers you get what you now see - empty stadiums and even little interest on commenting on blog. BC has gone PC and should play in division 3 with a big rivalry wit Mass Maritime and the Coast Guard Academy. It can also add the Quantico Marines if they start playing again.

But the media will tell you the SEC is dominant. How does Ohio State get to be ranked ahead of ND? They had what appeared to be a two touchdown loss at home to a great Sooner team. Now that Sooner team isn't so great and they have no noteworthy wins. ND on the other hand has the best loss of the year by one point to a strong Georgia team. They also have a win on the road over a ranked MSU team. The Irish should be the top one loss team. OSU should be behind one loss Oklahoma.2.The QB play at BC the last three years has been poor. A good QB throws twice as many TDs as interceptions. Excluding Flutie, the QBs, Fadule, Smith , Towles and Brown have completed about 50% of their passes. They have 21 TDs and 21 ints. They are averaging just over 5 yards per attempt. Brown is averaging only 4.7 per attempt. The only quality QB play the last three years came from Flutie. He had 3 TDs to one int. An excellent ratio. Plus he averaged almost 8 yards per attempt. The best performing QB was turned into a WR and those that couldn't play took all the snaps. Brown is not accurate and he is not the future QB for BC.NEDofSavinHillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337433376275407168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-90258030781029278492017-10-09T10:17:10.737-04:002017-10-09T10:17:10.737-04:00Speaking of execution, coach John McKay of Tampa B...Speaking of execution, coach John McKay of Tampa Bay Buccaneers said when questioned about his teams execution he said " I'm all for it "theartfuldodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06887160467324605973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-41973540154102245092017-10-09T08:37:28.566-04:002017-10-09T08:37:28.566-04:00AMEN !
