Basketball starts Friday and other links

Basketball is about to tip off!! Let's catch up.




I loved Al Skinner but I have to give credit to Steve Donahue for how he is handling the media and marketing. I watched him the other night on ESPN U's ACC roundtable and he was on point and comfortable. I don't think his persona will be enough to fill up Conte, but you can start to see how he is going to sell himself and the program.


The players are excited about playing for Donahue. I think everyone is expecting a big year from Jackson, but look for marked improvement from Elmore.


Although they haven't all filled out their respective paperwork, these are Donahue's first recruits from the early signing day. There is still room in the class if he finds other guys he is interested.


Here is an article on our California recruits and Eddie Odio out of Florida.


BC's offensive line will be very thin vs Duke.


Here is the transcript from the Gene Chat. Nothing ground breaking. Do you think he bangs his head against the keyboard everytime someone asks about lacrosse?

Gotta love the 'expand Alumni?' question and the 'extend Spaz's contract?' question.

Yes. To 80,000 and 10 years.

Besides Reggie and Trapani, it's good to see Elmore is excited about the new system. I'm also curious to see how Biko performs given Donahue's comments about him in previous articles.
