Friday Night at 7 pm on ESPN3 (or whatever they're calling it).

HC projected to finish 9th in a 10 team Patriot League so should be another soft opponent.

A middle of the pack Patriot team just took a middle of the pack Big Ten team into OT.

Grant will have gone a long way to winning over the fan base if he can put up a good showing in his first Holy War!

especially if he either mentions jebus or creates a gold statue of his god for the players to worship at time outs

You can laugh all you want, but as the season ticket base has dropped to triple digits, I feel quite comfortable saying the median remaining fan is a CATHOLIC!

If the season ticket base is truly in the hundreds, perhaps stop charging a $2.5k (or whatever it is) seat donation for decent seats...

I've never been a member of The Rent Is Too Damn High Party, but if you have low season tix subscriptions, you really need to kind of give the product away for free while the quality is awful. Make it a next to free experience in the hopes that people spend money while there, create a buzz and eventually get hooked. As the program grows, you can start juicing the rates. But, no one should have been forced to pay anything to watch those last years of Christian.

They charge that for the decent seats because they know people will pay it. Do ALL the seats have that charge? Can you go get season's tickets up in the sky with lousy seats where you can't see anything and pay no license fee?

You can get into these games for $4 and sit anywhere outside of the rink-level and no one will question you.

If the team starts selling out games, you might be stuck up in the crappy seats as there will be no open sections to walk down to... but my strategy's been paying off for quite some time now and I feel good about it going forward.

We won’t score against athletic teams. But, defense and fast breaks works well in these warm-up games… which is a welcome change from the nailbiters of pretty much all previous seasons. I think it also gives a glimpse as to what Grant wants for the program in the future when he’s remade the roster. As I posted, it is a system that can work at a school like BC. Another observation, in this system, 3-point shooting is an after-thought.

You may want to grab a hold of the railing in your shower for this, but they fired Jim Christian and people are cautiously optimistic again

We're three years from optimism. Regardless, let HJS be stupid without you.

Why would you check “to see if BC hoop won” if you don’t “really care about BC hoop”? Do you go to NagsHockeyRuption to see how chicks with sticks did in their last game? Do you follow that up being the most prolific poster in game threads to make sure everyone knows you really, truly, forever don’t pay attention. Very convincing.
