“We have better players than the way we play. It’s up to me as a coach. Coach Wade

“This is our exceptional year, I’m going to say it here“, [Donald] Said the hand. “We’ll be top five in the ACC. I will say it with confidence.

The ACC preseason media voters weren’t listening; they predicted that BC would finish last in the league.

This is coach Earl Grant’s fifth season at Chestnut Hill, and unless he recovers well from a slow start, perhaps his last. He had a winning season (23-’24 – NIT 2^sd tour) but has yet to have a winning record in the ACC.

The atmosphere could be calmer than usual at Conte, students will not return to classes until January 12^th.

“[Donald] The hand is certainly a handful and results in a ton of fouls. He does a really good job driving the ball. He hadn’t shot as well from three this year, but he hadn’t seen our defense yet this year. Will Wade

This one should look like the NC State/UVA game, but with the Wolfpack administering the beatdown. The Pack had a comfortable lead throughout the second half until the Eagles made a late play against Colt Langdon, Jordan Snell, Scottie Ebube, Terrance Arceneaux and Matt Able. Final score, 80-69 Wolfpack.
