Boston College Eagles Quote of the Day:
“I had to sacrifice myself for the team and say, okay, well, I have to minimize my scoring and look at how I can become a play maker and really get these guys involved, and things began to start to happen. And I think because of that, because every year that you're in the league, they draft point guards, two, three, four of them, so when they come in, they're hungry. These guys done play college and they're looking at you like, look, they brought me in here to take your job. So every year you had to battle.”
