Coach Griffin is a winner. I doubt that he will accept anything less.
GO BISON!

Quoting from the press release:
Griffin's collegiate playing career started at Rider, where he was elected team captain as a sophomore in 2008-09. He transferred to Boston University prior to his junior year and was a team captain in both of his seasons with the Terriers. He led the America East Conference in 3-point field goal percentage (.458) as a junior while helping the Terriers to a league title and an NCAA Tournament appearance. Griffin was twice awarded the team's Reggie Stewart Award for dedication and commitment to Boston University basketball, and he also received the John Simpson Award for enthusiastic senior leadership among all Terriers athletics programs.

Not mentioned in the article is that he had to sit out the 2009-10 season when he transferred to Boston U. He then averaged about 25 mpg during his next two seasons there (2010-12), and he played two games against the Bison, including one in Sojka. At Rider, he played 14 mpg as a freshman and 16 mpg as a soph.

137, thanks for the details. Looks like a well rounded, talented coaching staff with a surprising amount of expereince even though they are on the young side. Personally, I hope that they know how to teach a matchup zone.
GO BISON!
