Not any longer

Jason Braxton, Boston College Athletic Director Although BC has a great basketball history, it’s been 15 years since we’ve had a winning season or conference record. And the past 5 years our overall record has been 49-105.  Our move from the Big East to the AAC 20 years ago hasn’t been a pretty one thus far.  The prestige level of our basketball program is, along with Wake Forest, the lowest by far in the AAC.  I’m tired of being the doormat of ACC and not getting to the NCAA Tournament.  Obviously, the alumni and the BC Hoop Club feel exactly the same way.  They’ve been bending my ear all 3 years I’ve been here as AD.  The coach I inherited lasted two years under me at which point I didn’t renew his contract.  Last season I made an effort to entice Fred Aura, but he showed no interest.  I made the mistake of promoting Stan Whitehouse, who had been our 1st assistant coach, to be our head coach.  That turned out to be a disastrous mistake!  We finished last in the AAC and there was a lot of unrest on the team.  It definitely was time for a major change. While I really don’t expect Coach Aura to work a miracle by turning this team into an instant threat, I decided to set some high goals: (1) no academic ineligibility (an obvious goal due to our high academic standing); (2) win 15+ games; (3) finish in the top half in the conference standings; (4) qualify for the NCAA tournament; and (5) improve our basketball program prestige.  I believe Fred can achieve the first and last goals, but the middle 3 will definitely be tough and #4 is very likely just a dream at this point.  But I’d rather set high goals and have him miss some of them, than to set low goals that don’t require much effort and a stretch.  Actually I know he’s got a major building project that will take several years.  But we need to get the Eagles back to the prominence that we had in the late 20th and early 21st century. I’m already excited by the two new assistant coaches that Coach Aura hired.  They look like upgrades to those they replaced.  I’m hopeful that we’ll be able to land a top-flight recruit this season who will be able to significantly contribute immediately when he gets to BC. For the first time since I arrived at Boston College, the BC Hoop Club has shown optimism. That’s a major burden off my shoulders.  Fred has been open with them and has gotten them to realize that the building process will be a gradual one.  If we can develop and continue an upward trend, I believe they’ll be happy.

I looked at 4 or 5 and they still lacked some of the contracts issues and cap management that made EHM so interesting to me.  Also it is a really tough UI to get comfortable with. Has it improved?
