This morning I got up early to drive
out to the Falcons headquarters in Flowery Branch for
the team’s 9 AM press conference. As I got out of my car a stretch SUV limo came rolling down the hill loaded with the Ryan clan. One of the Falcons’ folks ...
Photo by Ryan for Heisman blog I don’t
think all BC fans know what is at stake
in Jacksonville. A SuperFan won’t catch a pass or make a tackle, but how BC fans support the school will have long-term ramifications on the program. If you can ...
[I try not to get preachy on this
blog, but I needed to say this. If you
are a current student and your friends are waffling about the ACC Championship game, please send them the link to this post.] If you are current BC student you need to get to ...
Conventional wisdom says that it is hard to
beat a football team twice in one season. The
reality is somewhat different. Since the creation of conference championship games, eight contests have been rematches from the regular season. Seven of the ...
In one of those quirks that has never
been explained to me, the men's basketball team opens
their ACC schedule against Maryland again this Sunday. In addition to starting conference play against Maryland every year, we also play the Terps a month ...
Most of you probably saw this on Boston.com,
but our game against Kent State has officially been
moved to Cleveland . The game will also be played on Saturday, instead of Thursday. That is good news for our fans in Northeast, Ohio. Bad news for ...
Doesn’t it feel like ages since we last
played? Prior to some recent bowl games, we were
distracted by coaching searches or the joy of just getting in a bowl. Not this season. This game was and is a letdown for a team that flirted with something ...
Let me echo what Jags is saying --
this is not where we wanted to be, but
winning 11 games is still very important. This is also the last BC football game for nine months, so enjoy every moment. I'll be in Orlando and will not be online during the ...
Kansas hits Boston Saturday in what will be
the biggest non-conference game at Conte since Duke visited
during the Troy Bell years. For those with short memories, the Jayhawks wiped the floor with us in Lawrence last year. This year's team might be ...
I don't even know where to start on
this clip... If you like Tracy Morgan and you
like Doug Flutie, you'll probably get a kick out of this interview that turns into improv of Morgan as a football coach. WARNING: For those who are at work, are put off ...
Nice feature on ESPN.com about Giants guard Chris
Snee . The notes section of this story mentions
Tribble's struggles at the Senior Bowl . This profile has Silva going anywhere from the 3rd round to the 5th. Early enrollee Josh Haden is hoping to start this season. Related to that, this Rivals notes column mentions the rebuilding Jags has to do with the offense . I think most fans assume ...
Because of my well-know allegiance to BC people
down here often assume I am a Patriots fan.
This week I’ve done a lot of explaining -- “I’m actually a Giants fan, plus I am rooting for Tom Coughlin.” The Tom Coughlin part generated a few ...
Because of BC’s newbie status within the ACC,
I am sure the following will be viewed as
sour grapes and envy. It’s not. Location and conference affiliation led me to see plenty of ACC basketball this year…and I just wasn’t that impressed. ...
SI.com's Don Banks had the most thorough article
on the Pro Day . He included many positive
quotes from NFL sources, but also added this nugget which complemented Ryan at the expense of his teammates: "Those Boston College receivers that ...
To get you ready for hockey, here are
the defining moments of BC's season . (Thanks to
Andres for the link.) Nathan Gerbe isn't the only Eagle who can put the puck in the net . The ACC is expected to have the most players taken in the NFL Draft. Dunbar is taking a positive attitude to the NFL .
Frozen Four hero Nathan Gerbe is going pro
. Not too surprising. It is always nice to
go out on top. Best of luck to him.
Memorial Day has come and gone, so now
BC fans can wear the following. And this. Make
a note, you can't wear the suit and pants after the Kent State game.
Huge BC fan and BC dad Tim Russert
died Friday after a sudden heart . Terrible news.
Thoughts and prayers go out to Luke Russert '08 and to the whole Russert family.
A statement from the Athletic Department . Father
Leahy's statement on behalf of the BC family .
More on his relationship with BC . Finally, the perfect example that Tim was a good sport: his participation in "The BC"
Steele loves the Irish. I know most fans
think the gushing is a pure play to sell
more magazines, but I actually agree with him on this one. Like Steele, I believe a soft schedule and a jelling group of young talent will spark another Notre Dame ...
