Boston College just fired their men's basketball coach

I have to assume that they pay the lowest salaries in the ACC,
and have the worst facilities. And Boston is not known as a hotbed for big-time basketball talent. Their 8,600-seat arena was built 33 years ago, at a cost of $25 million. :grinning: When their athletic director decided, without imput from the coach, that BC would play their next game, even though they only had 4 healthy scholarship players, that was kind of a hint that things weren’t going wonderful at BC. :grinning: :grinning: Their football coach Addazio received $2,514,859 in total compensation last year, and the men’s basketball coach, Jim Christian, received $1,480,826.

Do you think any ACC assistant will get the head coaching job there?

If they went the assistant route J Willy would
be the obvious choice but I doubt they are looking for anyone without head coaching experience.

JWilly did coach at BU early in his career, but I don’t think that’s a job that would set him up for success. It’s more of a career killer.
