What a great article by KW in the Star this morning. When my kids were growing up I always told them "good things happen to good people". Well J.J. you are living proof that statement is true. I can't imagine what it must have been like your 1st two years. I'm so glad you stuck it out and can now say with pride "once a Brave always a Brave" . Best of luck to you in the future and thanks for being a part of the Braves family.

When I read the news that Lennox Forrester left the other day, I was thinking that JJ would make a great assistant coach for BU. (I didnt know what his plans were after graduation)

JJ isn't ready to fill LF's shoes YET but someday, you bet. Could see him in an admin. role like Howard from Illinois is in UK.


Upon further review I wonder how a guy like JJ would do at recruiting.....talk about first hand knowlegde AND being able to relate to the kid getting recruited.

The first hand knowledge and relating to a potential recruit was what I was thinking about. He could walk into a recruit's home and greet him and then show him the Sweet 16 ring and say: This is a reason I want you to come to BU!

I was thinking teaching first....don't think JJ is ready for that yet but recruiting might be a different story.
