Boston College has fired Steve Donahue, sources told ESPN. Story coming.

 

[WFUtoUSC]

Oh my God if VT and BC fire their respective coaches but we keep Bz... what kind of fucked up world are we living in.

 

[morrison2951]

Good things come in 3, right?

Johnson
Donahue
Bzzzzz

Really strange. SI ran an article last Thursday citing a source close to the AD that said he would be back.

 

[YankeeInAtlanta]

It looks like BC has an AD that is committing to winning. BC will probably make a better hire than Wake Forest.

 

[WRS]

Just so it's clear I didn't actually just make that up:

Howland to BC. Bz to remain at Wake. Great.

lol

BC is an absolutely terrible basketball job. People here care much more about hockey.

 

[wake20]

BC should hire Amaker.

A little reminder when I fall in love this weekend with some coach who takes his double-digit seeded team to the Sweet 16.

 

[Strickland33]

Fuck you, Ron.

Shit. This Butthead makes Bzz look like John Wooden.

Wellman holds off on inevitable Buzz firing. Other jobs open. Best candidates hired. No suitable replacement candidates remain. Wellman retains Buzz forever.

Yes and no. Had an extraordinarily young roster his 2nd year. Made good progress last year and was expected to be in the bubble conversation this year. IDK what happened.

Oh, well Bzz's teams have been really young also.

 

[WFU Lurker]

Oh, well Bzz's teams have been really young also.

This is true. But, BC was actually headed towards an experience team.

 

[Demonbeck]

What was his record against Jeff [Redacted]?

 

[JamesSokolove]

Isn't Pearl a BC grad?

 

[wake20]

Isn't Pearl a BC grad?

I was thinking the same thing. I imagine BC thought about him and either decided against it or Pearl didn't want the job.
