Alright, this isn’t so much the “Steve Addazio was bad for BC” piece I was supposed to write, but instead more of a “Steve Addazio never belonged and never tried to” article. Sorry, Laura.
What feeling do you get when you meet a stranger and find out they also went to BC?
For a campus as small and close as Boston College (sorry, Newton folks), Steve Addazio never bothered to win over the hearts and minds of one of the most important groups of people. We, the people, the fans, the student body were not on his mind; the media who he obsessed over, yes, but not the rest of us.
