Jim Christian’s Firing Was Long Overdue

It finally happened. Coach Jim Christian, after 7 years of winning .371% of games and going a measly .217% in the ACC, has been relieved of his duties. It was pretty much known that this would have happened after last season if not for the COVID-19 pandemic striking NCAA sports on the day BC ended its season.

But my question is... why didn’t it happen sooner than that?

BC fans have known for years now that Coach Christian was not the leader this program needed. His inconsistent coaching style and failure to show steady improvement has been evident for a while now.
