Luke Murray: New BC Men's Basketball Coach

0:00On March 27, Boston College has named Luke Murray as its new men's basketball coach. The 37-year-old assistant from Yukon takes over a program that hasn't reached the NCAA tournament in 17 years. This marks his first head coaching job after years on successful staffs. Murray spent the last five seasons at Yukon, helping Dan Hurley build back-to-back national champions. His father, actor Bill Murray, became a familiar face at Huskies Games. IMAC, Yukon faces Michigan State in the sweet 16 this Friday. He steps in for Earl Grant, fired earlier this month after five tough years. Grant poses 72 wins against 92 losses overall, including just 30 conference victories in the Atlantic Coast Conference. Before Yukon, Murray worked three years each at Louisville and Xavier, plus stops at Towson, Wagner, Arizona, and others. A 2007 Fairfield graduate, he becomes the four team head coach in Eagle's history. The team has lagged in the expanded ACC for over a decade, with recent finishes near the bottom of the 18 team league.
