Luke Murray and BC?

I'll root for BC for as long as Luke Murray is their coach. As soon as he's moved on to a better job, I'll go back to being basically indifferent to them. That said, that's a tough job. Same goes for Kimani Young. I'll root for wherever he winds up for his contributions to UConn basketball.

Know it may sound crazy, but we need to be going all in on Cam Spencer here. One, he’s a high IQ guy with elite competitiveness and could replace Murray’s offensive mind. Two, he and Hurley are cut from the same cloth - could be a natural successor in 10 years. Three, he won’t last much longer in the NBA, might as well get a good gig now while his stock is high.

Stick with the chat, bud. More your speed.

Do you think any of the BC admins who blocked UConn from the ACC thought their program would be hiring a UConn assistant in 15 years?

Review Luke’s resume prior to being hired at UConn. Cam would need a little bit of seasoning before he’s ready to be top Asst at UConn. He’s going to be in the NBA longer than you think!

I heard through the grapevine that Luke turned down the cuse job to take the BC job.

Ok…. my grapevine is my own head, but how funny would it be if this were true?

It not only sounds crazy, but your take is bat crap crazy!

Cam is playing in the NBA at a pretty high level as a rotation player. Why would he give that up to be an assistant college coach? Really!!!

If Ollie was able to carve out a long NBA career playing a ton less productive than Cam is playing now, he will be earning a ton of NBA coin for quite some time.

Luke wants smart players to run his offense.

Congrats to Luke, thankful for all he has done for us. Wonder when Kimani Young will be next to get a head coaching gig.

Kimani will be next UConn coach when Hurley leaves, assuming he doesn’t take a HC job elsewhere.

2-3 yr age difference between Dan and Kimani. Unless Dan hangs them up soon, Kimani isn't our coach in waiting, There's a program that will give Kimani the keys he deserves and has earned.

If not, he will be coach's Chris Dailey. ie: legacy, rings and CBB HOF.

Guess this was the kind of opportunity Luke was looking for. I'm sure he gave it a lot of thought and it was done with Dan's blessing. Will remember when Dan handed the keys to the offense over to him early in Luke's tenure at UConn. Our Program trajectory post AAC dramatically changed with his imprint on the offense and recruiting.

Has his work cut out for him at BC. But he's been around a coach who has repeatedly rebuilt programs as a head coach-Hurley. Boston is a city that likes its winners. Luke is a winner. Wish him well.
