so apparently bosco hired Dan Keating, guy just accepted the HC job at new D2 Holy Family down by philly, already left before the first fall. philly guy, coached a bunch of years at st. joseph's prep down there. was also the OC at St. Joe's University for a while. we'll see - odd that he's coming all the way up to north jersey.
BC hired former player/AC Frank Feaster, who leaves Cedar Grove HS after 1 year of being their HC. can't fault him for jumping ship there to BC. BC has a TON of talent but from what i've heard the parents/community there is a bit much. maybe having an alum lead the program will right the ship - Beardsley just wasn't a good fit there - heard some pretty nuts stories.
Beardsley was an impulse hire spurred on by a frustrated group of parents. I do not fault the parents, as the team consistently underperformed considering the talent, but I was definitely surprised that the team was even worse under Beardsley, unless that was simply a result of graduating a very good class the year before. I have no insight as to the inner workings of the team under his leadership, but when my son's team played BC, I felt that every coaching comment coming from the sidelines was spot on. I would imagine that some parents did not like that their kid was being called out in such a public manner, I certainly would not, but that is simply the way he coaches. Truthfully, in some respects, I wish that my son's coach had the same sideline energy. I suspect that BC can do great things with the right coach..
