The Coaching Career of Andrew O'Hearn (CH 2K8)

[NoDakHusker]

So it begins! After many, many hours spent playing the legendary College Hoops 2k8, I figured it was time to document my latest career legacy. My write-ups will be pretty short and sweet, I won't get too fancy with this as I'm just doing this for fun

Rosters: Raiderfan's 2011/2012 rosters

Sliders: rspencer86's 20-Minute All Conference Sliders
I really enjoy rspencer's AC sliders for their realism. If, down the road, it gets too easy or unrealistic, I may make adjustments. If any adjustments are made, they'll likely be minor. I have the most fun with these sliders and it gets to be less fun if I am constantly changing things.

Brooklyn, NY - A crowd of several hundred students and faculty gathered for an announcement earlier today regarding a change within St. Francis College athletics. The men's basketball team has hired a new coach, after previous head coach Glenn Braica unexpectedly vacated his position this summer.
Braica's replacement is a first year head coach, 28 year old Andrew O'Hearn, who has spent the last 4 years coaching at the high school level in North Dakota.
"To go from playing at Creighton, to coaching small time basketball in North Dakota, and now coaching college basketball in New York. That's quite a ride," O'Hearn said, "I'm putting all that behind me. It's my job now to lead this school into a new era. It won't be easy, but I welcome the challenge. This is a unique opportunity, St. Francis has yet to make an appearance in the NCAA tournament. That's my goal here. I want people to get excited about this team."

Terriers Carry Game to OT, Fall Short
November 9, 2007

Brooklyn, NY - It was Coach Andrew O'Hearn's first game leading the Terriers of St. Francis as Hartford(1-1) came to town on opening night. The results, however, were not what he had desired for his game as head coach.
"I don't know what to say about this performance. Sloppy and inconsistent. Ugly. Despite taking this game to overtime, we have some work to do," O'Hearn said as he headed for the locker room following the Terriers 54-52 loss in overtime. Sloppy and inconsistent were certainly applicable to both sides, shooting percentages were under 50% for both teams.
St. Francis rallied from a 34-18 deficit in the second half to eventually send the game to overtime on a game-tying Ben Mockford 3 pointer, with 7 seconds to go. With the team trailing and 3 seconds left in overtime, Mockford tried to be the hero again, but was unable to get the game winner to fall.
The Terriers start the season 0-1 and their next game is at St. John's of the Big East.
