Wow didn't realize he had 10 guys returning including Sanders & Jackson. Throw in Brady Heslip and Kevin Noreen and you have to think that would have been a really deep strong BC team. Instead they let Al go, lose Sanders & Ravenel to transfer and have basically stunk since. They won't admit it mostly because of Skinner's age but if he was 45 and available they would be on him like a cheap suit right now.

What I found interesting was one reason the article says BC gave for firing Skinner was lack of fan enthusiasm. The problem is the "superfans" have never cared about BC basketball, and apparently never will. I remember that year they started like 20-3 or something and Ted Sarandis was ranting and raving on WEEI and they'd show Conte Forum on TV and there would be 3 students with the superfan t-shirts surrounded by empty seats in the student section. They'd pack the place for Duke and that's it. As bad as times have been for PC and even with a spotty student engagement, the fans are still much better than up north.
