Boston College Eagles linebacker Mark Herzlich doesn’t just have an injured foot, but a broken one.
Trainers initially told Herzlich that he would be fine and could have played if it was near the end of the season.
However, the injury appears to be much more significant than first thought and will keep him out for awhile longer.
Herzlich said he is itching to get back out on the field and is confident that he will play in the September 4 opener. (Read More…)

Boston College linebacker Mark Herzlich missed the team’s first practice, but it had nothing to do with cancer.
Herzlich, who missed all of last season after battling cancer, is now bothered by a foot injury.
He was told that, had the injury occurred last in the season, they would go ahead and let him play.
However, with it only being the first day of practice, holdng him out for a few sessions is the wise thing to do. (Read More…)

Boston College Eagles hybrid linebacker Mark Herzlich is cancer free and set to make his return to the field.
Herzlich, who missed last season because of cancer, is excited for his return on September 4.
He anticipates that running out of the tunnel and onto the field that day will be an unbelievable feeling.
When Herzlich last played, he weight just 238 pounds. He said he is now up to 250 pounds after some work in the weight room.
It will be interesting to see if Herzlich can make it all the way back and regain his title as one of the best linebackers in the country.

The Boston College Eagles have hired Cornell’s Steve Donahue as their new head coach.
Donahue just wrapped up a tremendous season with the Cornell as he guided them to the Sweet 16.
He quickly became one of the top coaching candidates for a number of jobs, and Boston College moved fast to get him.
Donahue takes over for Al Skinner, who was let go in a mutual decision after 13 years with the school.
The new head coach will have his work cut out for him trying to ramp up interest in the program.

After firing head coach Al Skinner, Boston College must now begin a search for a new head coach.
It’s not going to be a very easy search given the lack of excitement around their hoops program.
Most of the games are not sold out, there is not a lot of boosters donating money and professional sports reign king in the Boston area.
It could help that the Eagles are now a part of the ACC, which is considered one of the best basketball conferences in the country.
Then again, it could hurt from the standpoint that recruiting will be very difficult and every road game is a significant trip.

In a surprising move, the Boston College Eagles have fired head coach Al Skinner after 13 years in Chestnut Hill.
Skinner had shown interest in the St. John’s coaching vacancy and interviewed for the job.
However, St. John’s chose to go in another direction and hired former UCLA head coach Steve Lavin.
Some believe that Skinner’s decision to interview with St. John’s might have angered Boston College.
Others think it was a mutual decision and the Eagles were hoping that Skinner would land the St. John’s job.

The Boston College Eagles picked up their biggest win of the season with an 80-60 throttling of the Virginia Tech Hokies.
Boston College came out and took control of the game right from the opening tip-off, and they were rarely challenged.
Joe Trapani led the Eagles with 17 points, all of which came during the decisive first half of the game.
Reggie Jackson had another strong game, scoring five points with 11 rebounds and five assists.
The Eagles are not going to the NCAA tournament, but they could be building momentum heading into next year.

The Boston College Eagles got back on the winning track with a 71-67 win over the North Carolina Tar Heels.
For the Eagles, beating North Carolina didn’t mean nearly as much as usual given their struggles this year.
The Eagles have had their share of struggles as well, but are hopeful that improved play of late might serve them well in the ACC tournament.
Reggie Jackson made his first start at point guard this season and certainly didn’t disappoint, finishing with 17 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists.
Jackson said the team spent the entire week focusing on ways to slow down North Carolina’s fastbreak.

The Boston College Eagles put up a strong fight against the No. 7 Duke Blue Devils but came up short in a 66-63 loss.
It’s been a tough year for the Eagles, but they showed some of the ability of the team by pushing Duke to the limit.
The loss does look slightly closer than it really was, as Boston College rallied back in the final minute to make it look like a very tight ballgame.
When it came down to it, Boston College simply could not contain the guard duo of Jon Scheyer and Nolan Smith, who each scored 21 points.
Boston College had pretty balanced scoring across the board with four players finishing in double digits. Corey Raji led the Eagles with 15 points.

The Boston College Eagles got back on track with a stunning, 75-69 win over the No. 21 Clemson Tigers.
Boston College got off to a sluggish start, and it looked like another ugly loss upcoming for the Eagles.
However, they were finally able to get something going and raced out to a 17-point halftime lead.
In the second half, it was all about trying to protect that lead, especially as Clemson made a strong run down the stretch.
Reggie Jackson led the Eagles with 18 points and Corey Raji added 14.
