New Associate Coach To Help Donahue?

Ivy, Ivy, Ivy. It seems Boston College is looking to the Ivy Leagues to usher in this new era of BC men’s basketball. It has been reported by ESPN, not yet announced or confirmed by Boston College, that Joe Jones, who has been the head coach of the Columbia men’s basketball team for the last seven years, has been hired to work alongside Steve Donahue as the associate head coach.

BC made the announcement introducing Steve Donahue, from Cornell, as the new head coach a few days ago on Wednesday. There had been rumors that Donahue had contacted other coaches about joining his BC staff.

If Jones is coming here, it will be interesting to see what he does to help Donahue. He was 86-108 overall at Columbia, with a 39-59 record in the Ivy League.
