The Return of JOB

Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. - The Book of Job, 13. 15

Good news for Terriers Hoops fans:

After asking for his release and the opportunity to explore other options following the conclusion of the 2008-09 season, America East Rookie of the Year and rising sophomore Jake O'Brien has decided to remain with the Boston University men's basketball team, first-year head coach Patrick Chambers announced Wednesday.

Whitty has a good analysis of what this means from the various faces of BU Basketball.

My two cents: the kid was in a very unique position in which he could be opportunistic. Sure, maybe the morals of it are a little questionable, but in the end JOB decided that this was the best place for him. I agree. I think Coach Chambers does as well. I hope his teammates cut him the slack he deserves and get to the business of making the Dance in March.

BC Sucks. Go Terriers.
