I'll give Christian Credit - Good first move

Spinelli, Wuckynski, Waheed and jay murphy as director of ops, good, bad or indifferent?

[BCSUPERFAN22]

3 kids from Maryland just got release to transfer, Nick Faust, Shaq Cleare and Roddy Peters.

What will rule be in regard to Maryland going B1G. Could they theoretically follow Spinelli to BC and not have to sit out the 2 year in conference rule. Would they have to wait till Maryland officially leaves ?

I'd be a little underwhelmed by that. I wouldn't mind keeping Waheed, but I'd prefer to see someone with more high major experience over Wuckynski

Murphy sucks and can go away at any point

What about replacing waheed with Jarvis, any better?

Bad. Spinelli would be great. Wuckynski as the 3rd assistant who can run practice is boring but understandable. As far as I can tell, Waheed didn't do dick as a recruiter for 4 years. I don't see why he should be a main focus. I guess I could see it if the entire roster was returning and you wanted to have some continuity as you gear up for what should be a tourney run. But, being a familiar face for Odio isn't enough to warrant taking up an assistant position. That said, if he fine with him as DBO. As for Murphy... I honestly do not see what he brings to the table. Go hire Danya, Biko, Curley, Eisley...

Waheed has the relationship with NMH. Hanlan, Miller.

Spinelli, Jarvis, Wuxkynski and Wahred would solid. I'm sure Jarvis can still recruit

[BC923]

I'd give Biko Paris a shot, although I don't think he'll get one. Smart player, and has really progressed quickly as a coach, having already moved up the coaching wrung since his first job. (I believe he was promoted into his position at UML from a lesser assistant coaching position at BU, but could be young.) So while he is very young, he has also proved himself to some extent.

Hanlan and Miller came from New Hampton, but yes that relationship is important. I don't see why we wouldn't hire one of the coaches from that league to be an assistant. Couldn't we get the guy from Brewster or Tilton or something like that?

[BCSUPERFAN22]

What about someone like Steve Hailey ? Im not sure how he would fit on a limited staff, but he is with BABC now and seems to be mentioned often when talking about players from the Boston area. I guess the one concern is that perhaps he is too "focused" on the Boston area alone and not all of New England. I also have no clue as to his relationships with the prep school scene, but BABC is one of the best AAU programs in the country.

He would also bring in the "more dreadlock, less goldilock" aspect to the stafff

I'm pretty sure we could hire a BABC guy, and we still wouldn't get their players.

[Bender]

Is there a particular incident that soured things with BABC? Does it go back to Elton Tyler and Jonathan Depina? Bridging any gap with Papile and BABC would be a huge step towards the goal of being a true top program. I assume Bill Curley played for BABC, I know his two brothers did, and if Hailey is part of BABC that would have to help.

Jeremy Miller is on BABC...

[claver2010]

speaking of biko, apparently uml is on the schedule next year:

On the topic of scheduling, Christian confirmed that he will mostly just stick with the schedule that Donahue's staff setup for next year. The reason for that is BC's new coach agreed with the approach that Donahue was going with for next year in scheduling an easier schedule, and it's starting to get too late to schedule many more games.

EA reached out to one of Donahue's assistants to inquire which teams were scheduled for next year. Those teams include Harvard, UMass, Providence, USC, the Puerto Rico Tip-Off, UMass-Lowell, Maine, and SE Louisiana.

So we should get at least one win next year.

[commavegarage]

Looking forward to the great schedule makers making the SE Louisiana game at 4 pm on the sunday the pats are playing the broncos to maximize attendance.

[natturner]

It would be huge if they finally start getting strong local recruits. No coach has really tried to corner local recruiting since Mike Jarvis was trying at BU in the 80s.

Perhaps off topic, but, if BC started recruiting more locally could it actually create morefan support from the local community?

Are you kidding? O'brien was doing an excellent job getting local kids until they jerked him around with the Depina class.

i assumed the alive one

[talon]

Is Spinelli to BC a done deal yet?

I saw that Nick Faust, Roddy Peters and Shaq Cleare all want to transfer out. Would any of them want to follow Spinelli? And would any of them be a good get if they did?

[twballgame9]

Nick Faust is a good get if you enjoy ballhoggery and bad shots. He's a good talent.

[eepstein0]

Nick Faust is terrible, even by BC standards

[HJS]

I'm guessing that all 3 of those Maryland players are better than players we have in the same year of eligibility. There could be issues with regard to whether Maryland they have to sit out 1 or 2 years, but I'd be fine with taking all 3.

[footer20]

Screw Faust. I want Peters and Cleare. Sure they haven't done much at Maryland but both are former top 100 recruits (Cleare #30 in 2012 And Peters #52 in 2013). Cleare is 6-9, 270, is an actual center (call me crazy for thinking we can get a center), and was promising as a freshman if I remember correctly. He had offers from Baylor, Arizona, and Texas in high school but the less touted Charles Mitchell passed him on the depth chart this year. Peters is also very talented, as he held offers from UCLA, georgetown, and Kansas among others. He lacks a jump shot but certainly has the athleticism to play in the ACC. Since Jake Layman manned the 3 at Maryland, Seth Allen, Dez Wells, and Nick Faust got the majority of the run at the 1 and 2. Peters only real opportunity came when Allen was hurt.

When it comes to bad news about BC, I think this board has found that Twitter tends to be more accurate than we'd all like.

Was his name Thamel or Blauds?

[Corporal Funishment]

Why don't we send out Bates to hire an assistant coach? He'll leave no stone unturned. He'll look at current MAC coaches! Former MAC coaches! All under Fogler's supervision of course.
