Roll Call for the Fairfield Game

Let’s show our support for the team and be therein big numbers (I can just hear the BU fans laughing at this moment) on Monday night for our game against Fairfield.   Come, if only to thank CJ for what he has meant to our program and for deciding to forego what many have said would be instant success and big bucks in the NBA.   Come, too, for an early glimpse of Fordham – a team we’ll see again at Stabler on December 4th.

I know LU2007 and I will be there.  Who else from the Board is planning to come?
