Visitor This Weekend

@KStone22 has heard that Boston College will be hosting 6'7, 301-pound OL Pape Abdoulaye Sy on a visit this weekend.

He has also heard of at least three transfer prospects the Eagles are supposed to be hosting from other FBS programs but cannot share more at this time.

Boston College offered him about a month and a half ago so this has been in the works for a while. Sy comes via the NFL Academy in Loughborough, England. A lot of international football prospects come through it as a portal to the college ranks in the United States.

He is a native of Senegal.

Also affiliated with Brandon Collier, who helps international players be placed at US schools.

Gardner-Webb has also offered and Oregon State is a school that has been showing interest.

Game 10: Holy Cross @ BC 12/8 7pm

TV: ACCNX/ESPN+
Line: BC -22
Kenpom: Holy Cross #352. Best win is Georgetown (yes, the real Georgetown. Not the one in Kentucky. Big John is rolling over in his grave.) 68-67.
Does BC need this win to make the tournament (1-How much does Uka still seek revenge scale): Eleventy billion.
Will bshay21 bet this: I am honestly shook by being a 22 point favorite. Would love to know the last time a line was that high for BC. We were 8-2 and had just beaten UMass, PC, and Maryland in the captain's first year (probably when the Al haters peaked at peacocking around about how it was a good idea to can him) and hosted 1-9 Bryant. Still not sure it got there. I don't think I can bet that after watching us go up by 33 and sit everyone. Will probably wait for a first half line, again.

2023-24 Nerd Number Depository

Great news, @mdougherty . I wanted to make an even more amazing case as the bulwark for #teambick last week against @walker4bc and forgot to cancel a nerd number website. So, I had a $40 charge this past weekend. For the next month (until I forget again), I will make it rain nerd numbers. But, I will keep it in here to keep everyone sane. Unless I need to make an argument to a wider audience.

First stat:

1. We have played 160 minutes. Madsen has played 69. Our net rating with him on the court is +2.5 points/100 possessions. With him off, it is +23.8. Our eFG% goes from 58.1% to 39. Even our defensive rating is slightly worse. These numbers were all worse last year as well.
2. I wanted to be fair so I looked at what our eFG% was with him and Post on the floor together. +12. QP is +33 with Madsen off.
