Holloway ready to step up and other links

HD featured Max Holloway in her blog today. This is actually a good sign as the program wouldn't put him in front of her if they weren't expecting big things. In the article it mentions his declining playing time last year. No one every really explained that decision. It was curious to say the least since our starters were hardly dominating and Holloway could have used the snaps. Max has the talent. Maybe this is the year it all comes together.

Finally, Dr Saturday gets around to BC and says "why not?" Don't worry though, his hedging doesn't mean that the national sentiment on BC has changed. Most still expect us to finish third in the division.

Rivals ranked us at 35 and presented a decent preview of the team.

Pennsylvania OL prospect JJ Denman has good things to say about BC.

Florida DB Torrey Campbell is set to visit BC in two weeks.

I am not sure what their connection is/was, but you have to applaud Montel and Wes Davis for helping out at a youth football camp in Peabody.

After a rough half season in the Braves' minor league system, Ryne Reynoso is now with the Red Sox organization.

Kofi Kingston is doing the media rounds with his upcoming Money in the Bank match.

Doc Saturday on BC

He's pretty fair and hits on most of what we will discuss this offseason: scoring more and the upside of the defense.

Basketball already underrated and other links

Can a team be under the radar if the media is talking about them already? I expect more positive press for the basketball team in the coming weeks and if they start strong they will quickly be ranked.

Tom Dienhart included a few kudos for Spaz in his column. Yet no mention of Dienhart's old crush TOB.

Here are the latest pro projections that won't hold up for BC. I think it is BCS or bust again.

As expected, Harris picked up a few different awards for his performance on Saturday.

Springsteen held a private concert for BC folks over the weekend. It is nice to see him do something special for BC and I also like BC getting creative in their fundraisers.

HD moved BC up to 4 in her power rankings.

Dr. Saturday took at look at our home performances vs our road woes.

Consensus among the experts: BC will be 5th

There are a few optimists, but the average prediction from the experts has BC finishing 5th in the Atlantic Standings. Even Dr. Saturday, who certainly goes his own way on these things, fears the offseason was too much and BC will be at the bottom of the division.
