Boston University off-season thread (preparing for 16/17).

Re: Boston University off-season thread (preparing for 16/17).

You also have to consider that Max Letunov was slated to be a part of this offense until our admissions office decided at the absolute last minute that they wouldn't accept his Russian school credits and denied him admission, leaving Quinn virtually no time to find a replacement.

The story I heard on Letunov from a pretty darn reliable source is that it was the athlete who dropped the ball after being given very clear parameters on what needed to be done (and when). Really a shame, because he is obviously a very talented individual.

In what sense?

Lowell fans already posting schedule changes to 6pm on some Fridays due to the ASN TV contract.

Can't wait to see what Friday night BU games get bumped up to 6pm.... Thanks Bertagna.

Him, Scott Conway, and Liam Pecararo have to be the preseason hat trick finalists for this hypothetical award, unless I'm missing someone.

I wouldn't bet on Pec being in the running, he's ineligible for the first half of the year due to an academic situation.

Related to testing that he needed to complete/pass within a certain time and didn't.

Calling his problem "academic" makes it sound worse than it is. The whole story is really complicated, but suffice to say that Pec may have gotten some bad advice at the community college he attended in Waterloo last winter. He didn't fail anything. He apparently did not take the correct course work that would make the NC$$ giggle. The rules about that type of transfer are incredibly byzantine - and that's an understatement.

The best we can hope for is that he stays in shape and is ready to contribute in December.
