odio is a good player.

I'm fine with them preferring owens or dragicevich or whoever over heckmann but i think odio should start. sophomore year he was a good player and if he gets that confidence back he can be a good player again

You must be hanging out in the warehouse with Mr. Falzon if you think Odio should be a starter.

Odio is dreadful

I'll be shocked if diallo doesn't start.

Do you seriously think Dragevich is a starter? He can't dribble, shoot, or play D! Can he even play basketball?

I think it's either him or odio at the 4 and the latter really scares me. plus dragevich averaged 20.9 points a game as a sophomore at notre dame.

Typo. He averaged 20.9 minutes, 6.6 points.

The odds of Drag starting at PF is 0.00%

I was going to say that no one who knows our team well enough to name ten players could possibly think Drago should be a starter, therefore this guy must be trolling. Then I remembered Donahue was starting Drago for 2/3 of last season...

That got us to what, 8 wins? There is a ton of dead weight on this roster

Dude, we fucking get it. BC doesn't have a lot of talent. Repeating it 500 times is not necessary.

@EAHoffses: Hearing #BCEagles center Dennis Clifford has been full go at practice so far and has not missed anytime

That's encouraging, hopefully he will have a "Bill Walton" type of 1986 comeback. 8 point 6 rb 2 bl.

One of the guys on the heights said hicks out for year. Torn acl, same knee

Hanlan
Brown
Owens
Diallo
Clifford

???

odio or diallo starting at the 4?

Take from a national write who sat in on a practice:

Jon Rothstein @JonRothstein · Oct 17
Early prediction on BC starting five --- Olivier Hanlan, Aaron Brown, Patrick Heckmann, Will Magarity, Dennis Clifford

This makes some sense givien the Diallo-as-project assessment. Hope Magarity can play the 4. Other than size, what does he bring to the table? I have no special love for Heckmann--the king of bone-headery and inconsistency--but he can shoot the 3 and put it on the floor, and has shown the ability to exploit match-up problems. It seemed that he got stuck on Donahue's bench and forgotten quite a bit last year.

As long as jackson and odio isn't in the starting lineup then I'll be happy. Owens and Diallo should be first off the bench if thats what we are going with.

This.

That lineup will have some major rebounding issues though. Magerity can't rebound to save his life

Heckman's handle is effective I guess but it's really dreadful. I can't really explain it. Maybe mcGarity had a great offseason but he wasn't even an American East quality player last year, and I Was high on him coming in.

He was America East quality as the official expert in this. His major problem was physical, the skillset isn't bad
