Jacob Furphy to the portal

[Son of Robert]

I like seeing this, best of luck to both Furphy and Luke Murray.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Really excited to see what he can do with a bigger role under Luke. Good luck to him.

 

[cwh20]

Possibly. I think Stew was a Kimani recruit though.

I’m guessing Stew knows who Luke is.

 

[The Viking]

I will hope he has nice stats and BC beats Duke and Cuse but thats the most i can do for those dbags. Sorry Luke

 

[BFieldHusky]

Luke could be there as little as two years if he can show something. He is so well respected around the country. Lack of experience was is his only knock.

 

[Mr. French]

Love this - I'm absolutely going to be rooting for BC next year.

 

[Husky Alien]

I was going to check in on BC because of Luke anyways and now Jacob. Best of luck JF.

 

[UCann]

Makes so much sense. Wonder if the other Euros follow.

He’s not a Euro, he’s Australian.

 

[Man's Field]

He’s not a Euro, he’s Australian.

Penal colony Europeans

 

[Lafayette]

I have no problem pulling a little for BC... if it was BU...no way.

 

[Stasher599]

Good luck Furph! Looking forward to seeing you get some run at BC.

 

[Bigbrad1029]

I was really hoping Furphy would stay and get a chance at some PT , but glad he is going to play for Luke and hope he has a great season / career

 

[80shusky]

If he was going to land somewhere... best of luck to Furphy. Hope he kills it!

Totally agree with you, although selfishly wouldn't mind him being the succession plan. We don't want him landing at a destination program anytime soon.

If 2-3 years, some interesting jobs could open up - if he can make a mark, I can see him making a sizeable leap to a top tier program. Dusty to the NBA, UK, KU are going to be anytime now.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Oh no. Luke and now Furphy. Dreading that I am actually going to hope BCU is successful at basketball for a couple of years.

I won't like them but this increases the chance a random doom scroll on Tuesday will get me to look at ACCN to watch BCU vs Wake Forest game.

 

[donyell34]

My feelings for BC have changed with the hiring of Luke, I'll miss him and losing Bill. I loved when the camera's panned to Bill in the stands cheering on the Huskies I'll miss that alot and good luck to Furph.

 

[KemBuckets21]

Seems like a great environment for him to develop. Will be rooting for him and Luke.

 

[UCFan1513]

In before someone says that we should have retained him and he would have been better than the German kid

[noelle]

luke burner found

would be a good fit in BC honestly

 

[Palatine]

I watched he international tournament Furphy played in before entering UConn. He had a nice three point stroke but was a terrible finisher in the lane. I didn't expect him to have much of a role at UConn as he was not very polished. Not saying he can't get better, he may. He should see the court more often in Nut Hill.

BU is the culture of Boston. Don't let Pitino sully your mindset.

 

[Edward Sargent]

BU is the culture of Boston. Don't let Pitino sully your mindset.

BU is the culture of NYC if you are from BC!

 

[OceanDoggie]

BU is the culture of NYC if you are from BC!

This is an uniformed take. My parents were from Southie and Revere and I have a degree from there and I've never heard such utter fabrication. B.U. doesn't even have a Quad and is integrated into the City.

 

[Viet Vet]

No way I root for BC, with only two exceptions: the arrogants (spelling intentional) of Duke and Notre Dame.
