On Wednesday morning, a report from the New England Football Journal came out that UConn assistant Luke Murray has been offered a contract to be the next men’s basketball head coach at Boston College.
UConn is still alive in the NCAA tournament’s Sweet Sixteen, facing off against Michigan State in Washington DC on Friday March 27th at 9:45PM ET. If Murray is intent on accepting the offer from BC, he may be waiting until UConn’s season is wrapped up so that his players are not distracted in the midst of an NCAA tournament run.
Hiring Murray would be a promising start for a new era of basketball at Boston College, nabbing one of the top assistant coaches in the country from a local rival. You can read more about Murray’s background in our post from last week here. We will continue to keep track of the situation in anticipation of his acceptance. Or rejection! Go Eagles.
