- Sports Illustrated writes of Boston College, "This is Donahue's fourth season at BC, and the former Cornell coach is no longer leading a program in transition. All five starters return from last year, and every player on the roster was recruited by his staff. Look for the Eagles to improve over last year's 16-17 overall record (7-11 ACC). The Eagles are also 1-13 against teams in the AP Top 25 under Donahue, with the lone win coming against Florida State in 2011-12."
