C.B. McGrath knows KU foe Northeastern: ‘They can make it difficult for a lot of teams’

No opposing college coach in America knows Northeastern University basketball better than former Kansas guard C.B. McGrath, the second-year head coach at UNC Wilmington.

He and his Seahawks assistants game-planned three times for the Huskies this past season, dropping three games by margins of 17, 4 and 21 points.

“They are really good. They can make it difficult for Kansas. They can make it difficult for a lot of teams,” McGrath said Monday in a phone conversation from Wilmington, N.C., where he’s directed the Seahawks to a 21-44 record the past two seasons.

He arrived at Wilmington from North Carolina, where he worked 14 seasons and won three national titles on the coaching staff of former KU coach Roy Williams.
