Is Hockey Dead? and the Big Finish
/ crickets ?Brian: Jeff, The Heights ran an article proclaiming that 2008 is not 2001 and that college hockey is dead in the collective consciousness of Eagles fans. Your thoughts?Jeff: I wouldn't say hockey is dead, but I would blame Matt Ryan [on the supposed decreasing lack of BC hockey fan...
Big Finish: Ryan, Challenger, and D Day
Brian: UConn football coach Randy Edsall is waiting for the phone call from BC after inking a deal with Notre Dame yesterday (with 0 games at Rentschler Field!). Any chance GDF is itching to pick up the phone and call UConn?Jeff: Unfortunately, Randy Edsall is not big enough yet to make that...
Is Gerbe The Real Deal? and the Big Finish
Jeff: I was out on the golf course yesterday with a former Miami (OH) and a former Denver hockey coach and they both agreed that Nathan Gerbe was the real deal and he would succeed in the NHL. I have no knowledge of hockey and should concede to their expert opinion but I am still not quite sold on...
Big Finish
Brian: Although Gerbe did not take home college hockey's top honor, he was named the USA Hockey's National College Player of the Year Award. Nice consolation prize?Jeff: If the Hobey voting hadn't started until the season was actually over he would've won that too. And being that he's already inked...
Big Finish 6-13-08

WWTOBD? and the Big Finish

Atlantic Division Strength? and the Big Finish
Brian: Jeff, sixteen of the twenty-five preseason All-ACC football team members are from the ACC's Atlantic Division. So just how much better will the Atlantic Division be than the Coastal Division next year?Jeff: Going back to what I vaguely recall from my statistics class at BC I am not sure if...
Party in the Backfield and Big Finish
Brian: In the notes section of this Herald article about Marcellus Bowman, it is reported that Coach Jags has moved junior college transfer Codi Boek to the running back position. I guess the second coming of Paul Peterson he is not. Sad, really. Jeff, your thoughts?Jeff: I'm heartbroken. I had...
Rivals? and the Big Finish
Brian: Newsweek published a list of the top 12 college rivalries and listed the Boston College - Notre Dame rivalry as one of those 12. Irish fans please stop reading. I know you're in denial. The R-word?! For Backup College? Certainly not! Jeff, your thoughts?Jeff: BC-ND is well deserving of this...
Titletown USA Bad for BC? and the Big Finish
Jeff: The Celtics won Game 1 of the NBA finals last night which gets them one game closer to a championship. If the Celtics pull it off, Boston will then have won a title in all 3 major pro sports in the last four years. Is this bad for Boston College because it further solidifies Boston being a...
