When Patrick Kraft was announced as Boston College’s new athletic director in 2020, my general reaction was “this seems like a fine but unexciting hire.” Kraft didn’t have anything major going against him, but there also wasn’t anything that stuck out as being new and different. Two years later, I would say I feel about the same about his time at BC. In fact, it is difficult for me to think of much to say about Kraft at all.
It’s tough to really judge Kraft’s impact on the Heights, as his entire time at BC has occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic.
