BOSTON (AP) — Boston College coach Earl Grant knows it’s likely going to be a tough first year on the job for him. Grant was hired at BC in March after spending seven seasons at the College of Charleston, where he took the program to the NCAA Tournament in 2018, ending that school’s 19-year drought. He’s the third coach at The Heights since BC last made the NCAA Tournament in 2009. Grant understands what’s ahead of him and wants to start with the basics. Boston College opens with eight nonconference games before ACC play begins at home against Notre Dame on Dec. 3.
