Basketball team embraces new media on Spain trip

Who cares if the games don't count or the major media outlets are not there? BC basketball is providing its own wall-to-wall coverage of their trip to Spain. 

Coach Donahue, Assistant Woody Kampmann, and Video Coordinator Dan McDermott tweeted pictures of the team in and around Madrid. 

BCeagles.com has a photo gallery of Day 1 and a Ryan Anderson diary. Anderson even admitted to being a typical American and sneaking a McDonald's stop into his day. The Heights has Dennis Clifford blogging about the trip too. 

The best place to keep track of the comings and goings is probably the Official Basketball team's twitter account. Let's hope the games go as well as the first day did.

HD on Rettig and other links

HD thinks that Chase Rettig will be our "x factor." I agree with her and from what I hear, Rettig is showing great improvement. Let's hope the rest of the offense improves around him.

Steve Donahue promoted Woody Kampmann from operations to an assistant position. Aside from salary, the big difference with ops to assistant is in the amount of recruiting allowed.

BC will play St. Louis in the opener of the 76 Classic tournament. The first game is Thanksgiving Day, so make sure your relatives have ESPN U.

Here is Rivals overview of the ACC. They put our staff as the 10th best in the conference.
