Episode Details

Boston College Eagles basketball faces a pivotal crossroads as Earl Grant’s squad struggles with fundamental issues threatening their season. Can BC recover before it’s too late? AJ Black spotlights the team’s three biggest challenges: over-reliance on poor three-point shooting, sluggish offensive tempo, and the need for aggressive defensive pressure. Is it time for the Eagles to abandon their slow, predictable play and unleash the athleticism of Aiden Shaw and Jayden Hastings in transition?

Key insights include how Donald Hand’s struggles from beyond the arc stifle the offense and why pressing more with defenders like Fred Payne and Chase Forte could generate much-needed extra possessions. AJ Black weighs in on potential game-changing adjustments, the current state of fan engagement, and what’s at stake for Earl Grant’s future. Will bold changes spark a late-season run, or will the Eagles remain stuck in a losing cycle?
