Boston College Eagles Quote of the Day:
“Laying in the Carrier Dome, and just the atmosphere of every game was unbelievable. You had Rick Pitino at Providence. It was just a lot of different personalities from a coaching standpoint, as well, with Carnesecca and Thompson and all those guys and Boeheim. Again, it was all around. It was just an unbelievable experience.”Dana Barros
