Jeff Goodman is reporting Donahue will interview at BC tomorrow, probably a better source that those NY post articles

Donahue is apparently a finalist at BC with two former BC assistants Fairfield's Cooley and Northeastern's Coen

Donahue should just wait it out at Cornell until Boeheim retires at Syracuse.

That is an interesting thought given all of Boeheim's support for Donahue but I think one of their assistants Hopkins who removed himself from consideration for the Charlotte job is the next guy in line after Boeheim retires

Yes, he's essentially the coach-in-waiting.

Looks like they might announce Donahue as BC's next coach tomorrow, article also mentioned Hofstra offered him 700k for five years, had not seen that anywhere else

I guess if Donahue is not at that Winter Sports honoring thing tomorrow we will know he got the BC job

ESPN reporting (Sportscenter, couldn't find an article) that BC will announce Donahue as their coach later today.

Of interest from the espn story is a statement from a Cornell source and then there's the last paragraph:

QuoteMultiple sources said here in Indianapolis that Donahue had contacted coaches about joining his staff with the Eagles, including at least one other Ivy League head coach.

It makes it easy for a "home run" to come your way when you're out there swinging for the fences.

Good luck in the ACC, coach. Thanks for the ride.

That was my point. The question was still there, and now we know the answer.

I guess I could have added this:   :-)
