Boston College Scores A Late Big Man

Boston College may have come up with a useful player: Delaware transfer Maurice Jeffers.

We admittedly don’t pay that much attention to Delaware basketball unless they’ve hired a Duke guy, which they’ve done three times (Steve Steinwedel, Mike Brey and David Henderson, all former Duke assistants).

Jeffers opted to leave after UD fired coach Monte Ross. He got enough credits to graduate (using an internship) and is immediately eligible at BC.

Jeffers is big - 6-9 and 240 - and experienced. He’s not an offensive force but he could be a reliable defender for the Eagles.
