Almost exactly one year ago, Earl Grant was hired by Boston College as the next men’s basketball head coach and reactions were...cautiously optimistic at best. I was one of those cautiously optimistic people. Earl Grant was by no means a well known name and did not come from an elite program but if you understood where BC was as a program and had realistic expectations for said program, there was a lot to like about Earl Grant. The biggest thing, for me at least, was that Grant clearly knew how to make the most out of very little. That, I believed, was critical for a school like BC.
