NC State will be in Chestnut Hill for a rematch with Boston College, but this game figures to look a lot different, because the Eagles are going to be shorthanded. Really shorthanded. They were preparing to play Florida State on Tuesday despite having just four scholarship players available.
Jim Christian said earlier this week that BC might have a fifth scholarship player available by Saturday. The FSU game was eventually canceled because of COVID problems within the Seminoles’ program, but why BC’s athletics department was so keen to play that game, I have no clue.
Anyway, the four scholarship guys who were available for BC as of early this week: Jay Heath, Steffon Mitchell, CJ Felder, Kamari Williams.
