Luke Murray reportedly
- Thread starter HallX2
- Start date
One of the more highly regarded assistants of the last few cycles, with him getting so much credit for Uconn's offensive innovation under Hurley. I'm sure he asked all the right questions and was given all the right answers, because it isn't like he was devoid of options whether this year or next. Fascinated to see how this plays out.
Sister went to BC. It’s a hockey school and maybe football back in the flutie days.
I always wanted to see them do good in basketball but they have constantly been god awful lol.
I’m curious if he can turn tha program around and possibly turn them more into basketball like how Nebraska is right now.
They did have a decent team in 2006.
I believe that had former nba vet Jared Dudley and I think Dana barros played for them back in the day and had success.

What?
Bc Troy bell ryan Sidney Craig smith Jared dudley they have had gems....they are like Pitt took football money and never recovered in hoops
When BC was in the Big East, they were Top 20 in both football and basketball.
I forgot robinson was lottery like 6 or 7 years ago did not have nba longevity though
The story of BC basketball cannot be written without a mention of Bill Curley
You beat me to it….. still think of the game he won up there with the buzzer putback
Now head coach at Emerson College, took over for former BC head coach Jim O'Brien. Use to see both of them in the basement gym when I visited my son up there. He had to walk through games to get to class.
Jim O'Brien had it going with Boston recruiting, but I guess he pushed the admin too far, with Herren et al, then they wont admit a kid who qualfied per ncaa rules. So OB goes to OSU, does great then I guess the cheating caught up with him and the ncaa wins wiped off the books.
They had a ton of all Big East players before they cashed out. Jay Murphy & Howard Eisley were both very good.
Jim took many players to osu who sat...osu ad fired him in 2004. Lawsuits settlements etc
Bc likely cya as they didnt want maryland situation

BC always had some talent on their rosters throughout their time in the Big East
even all the way back to the early days of the conference.

- Then they had some down years but the Bill Curley, Howard Eisley, Malcolm Huckaby team goes 1-15 as frosh and ultimately makes a magical elite 8 run as seniors knocking off #1 in the country UNC in the round of 32
Had a number of good years during the Al Skinner era as well (when I think Cooley was an assistant), producing players like Troy Bell and Jared Dudley.
Going back even farther at BC. John Austin---great rivalry with PC and Jimmy Walker; Cousy coaching against then-Lew Alcindor in a big Friday-Sat. double header in the last days (literally) of the old Garden in Jan. '68; Willie Wolters on the mid 60's team father of UCONN "legend" Kara from Geno's first championship season.
Have always thought Luke is a twerp. Kind-of a Hurley wanna-be. Really thought if/when he left UCONN it would be to a Fairfield. Kimani is the better coach.

Still the only coach I ever saw ejected at a SHU game, way back in the 90s at the Byrne.
